The Oba of Benin, Ewuare II has called on the Edo state Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki to look beyond his office and employ foresight in his actions as his tenure was only ephemeral.
“It will be good to look beyond your office because you are not going to be there all the time,” Oba told Obaseki
“You see the elder statesman there, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun? He was once a governor too. He’s not there now. So, everybody knows that it is transient.
“Look at how one day when you are no longer the governor everyone can sit and still give you respect. More respect even.”
