Using Rema as a case study, the Governor expressed hope that in the years to come, Edo indigenes would be making the country proud.
“Only few could have imagined that @heisrema, who was one of the backstage acts at my inauguration in 2016, would achieve global sensation status by 2024.

By the grace of God, by November, I will hand over the baton of administration to a team player who will continue the race of governance and maintain the upward trajectory we have started”.
