The Edo State Government has notified Governor-elect Monday Okpebholo to initiate the formation of his transition team, which will work alongside the outgoing administration’s team.
In a letter dated October 10, 2024, Secretary to the State Government Joseph Eboigbe emphasized that establishing this team would facilitate important discussions and the exchange of crucial information, ensuring a smooth transfer of responsibilities and continuity in governance.
In July 2024, outgoing Governor Godwin Obaseki had established a 20-member transition committee, led by Eboigbe, to oversee the effective handover of power and knowledge to the incoming administration.
