The governor-elect of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo’s transition committee, has warned the incumbent Governor Godwin Obaseki, not to hide any information from them.
The Committee gave the warning during the inauguration of the outgoing and incoming government transition committee members on Friday in Benin City.
The former deputy governor of the state, Pius Odubu, who is the chairman of the transition committee, said the provision of documents containing the needed and necessary information would enable the incoming government to hit the ground running.
He warned that any information hidden from the transition committee would surely be unravelled.
According to him, “Electioneering is over now and we are now ready to run our government. We have capable hands, and you must avail us of all the information that you have.
“Let us not try to hide any information because there are several ways you can get information. The best bet is to let us have all that you have; let us go through them. It is like a briefing session so that the incoming government would be well briefed so that when he comes on board he will hit the ground running.
“This job (transition committee) is time-bound and we call for your massive cooperation to ensure that we get all that we need to get within the shortest possible time.
“Because we need to go through them, sensitise them and brief the governor-elect so that he can hit the ground running once he comes on board.
“He will need to be aware of the happenings of government before he comes on board, and in doing so, we need the information from you, documentaries, hard copies and soft copies when the case arises.
“We want to ensure that this is done within the prescribed time and we expect that we will work together collaboratively.
“You have told us informally that the documents would be ready early next week, and by the time we have got them, if we need more, we will let you know and call on you to supply those timely.”
