  • The Edo State Government has debunked claims by the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) alleging that Governor Monday Okpebholo approved N6 billion as compensation to so-called “Fulani terrorists” following the recent Uromi killings. In a strongly-worded statement on Thursday, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Fred Itua, described the accusation as a reckless falsehood designed to incite ethnic conflict and destabilise the peace of Edo State. The controversy stems from the events of 28 March, when sixteen hunters from Kano State were killed in the Udune Efandion community of Uromi. In the aftermath, Governor Okpebholo visited Kano to sympathise with the families of the victims and appeal for calm, while a delegation from Kano later travelled to Edo to engage in peace discussions. IPOB, in a statement released on 21 April, alleged that the Governor had secretly approved a N6 billion compensation package to appease the bereaved families a claim which the Edo State Government swiftly dismissed as baseless and inflammatory. “There is no truth whatsoever in the claim that Governor Monday Okpebholo approved or paid N6 billion to any group,” Itua said. “This is a fictitious and malicious lie concocted by IPOB to sow seeds of discord and destabilise the harmony we have nurtured in Edo State.” The government warned that IPOB’s repeated attempts to manipulate public sentiment and incite ethnic hostility under the cover of activism would not succeed in Edo State. “It has become a known tactic of this proscribed group to exploit tragic situations to spread hate and misinformation,” the statement added. “Their agenda of violence and ethnic disintegration has no place here.” Emphasising its commitment to unity, security and justice for all residents, the Edo State Government reaffirmed its stance against any form of ethnic or religious discrimination. The statement also urged security agencies to investigate the source of the inciting publication and prosecute those behind it, stressing that public order and peace must not be jeopardised by dangerous propaganda. “We remain resolute in our commitment to justice, peace and the protection of all Edo people, regardless of background,” the government declared. “We will continue to uphold the values of unity, tolerance and truth in the face of reckless attempts to destabilise our state.”

Edo State Government has reaffirmed its commitment to the development of infrastructures and warned trespassers to stay away from all ongoing project sites.

The government in a statement issued by the Commissioner for Information and Communication, Hon Paul Ohonbamu in Benin City warned trespassers to steer clear of all project sites across the state or risk being arrested and prosecuted.

The Commissioner urged every body to be vigilante and guard against trespassers and imbibe maintenance culture of government projects.

According to him, the ongoing Ramat Park Flyover in Benin City, the renovation and rehabilitation of secondary schools, road constructions and other projects are being embarked upon by reputable companies for the benefit of residents.

Ohonbamu noted that the projects form part of Governor Okpebholo’s vision to transform the state with infrastructures which should be jealously guided.

According to him, the development going on would significantly transform Edo State and contribute to the state’s economic growth, adding that completion of the projects would be a game-changer for the state and its people.

The Commissioner therefore issued a stern warning to trespassers to desist from tampering with any government projects with the intention to sabotage the administration’s efforts.

” The government use this medium to sound a note of warning to them to desist from such acts because any one caught will be prosecuted,” he added.

While commending the expertise of all the contractors handling the projects, Ohonbamu expressed optimism that they would deliver as promised.

The Commissioner reiterated Governor Okpebholo’s unwavering commitment to delivering all the projects embarked by the state government, which he personally supervises.

Hon Ohonbamu stressed that the Okpebholo-led administration, through its proactive SHINE agenda has embarked on significant investment on road infrastructures across the state to link rural communities, with the support of the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
