The Assistant Secretary of Castle of Legends Initiative, COLI, Dr. Alex Orukpe PhD has called all oppositions in Esan land to unite and support Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State to make Esan people better and greater.
The appeal which was made in a statement in Ewatto, Esan South East Local Government Area urge all oppositions in Esan to play politics wisely and not to be extreme because they are brothers and sisters.
According to Dr. Orukpe, “Majority of Esan people fought for Esan Agenda, now we have it, what is needed from us is to make full use of the blessings, especially having Edo state Governor from Esan.
“During the home coming of the Governor, months ago at Ewatto, many of us were there, the father of the Esan People, Chief Leemon Agbonjiague IKPEA encouraged all Esan people to give him full support, so that we can experience the dividends of democracy as a people. He spoke as a father and has been doing his own part.
Dr. Orukpe stated that, “Currently, His Excellency, Senator Monday Okpebholo has been assisting our people with both State and Federal appointments. Those people should ensure they do well and be creative in the discharge of their offices. They should come up with latest Innovations which will encourage the Governor to do more.
“We must avoid denigrating His Excellency in anyways as it was done to Chief Tony Anenih. This is our time and we must manage it.
If you know any Federal Government Chief Executive position (DG, MD, ED, ES) that is expiring soon and there are Esan persons that are qualified kindly ensure the Governor is informed, or those close to him and if you can’t get access to any, do well to chat me up, so we could attract such position to Esan.
“Please, all oppositions in Esan should play politics wisely, don’t be extreme, we are brothers. Once again, those that have been appointed should bring best practices to their office and be innovative.”
