Represented by Vice President Kashim Shettima, the president said the inauguration brings a new chapter in Edo State’s history with the triumph of democratic values.
”We have weathered the hardest days as a nation. We have pulled back from the brink of economic collapse, and now we step forward into a time of growth.
”When we took office, we knew that securing the future of our economy would demand serious reform—reform to stave off looming fiscal and monetary threats to the stability of this great nation,” he stated.
He called for immediate reconciliation to address potential post-election differences in the state.
