Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki has alleged that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) plans to arrest him after his term ends on November 14.

During the EdoBEST National Results-Sharing Session in Abuja on Thursday, Obaseki said he was informed of the EFCC’s purported intention to detain him on allegations of fraud.

He, however, expressed confidence and said he has no concerns about a potential arrest or investigation, attributing the accusations to individuals driven by personal vendettas.

“I hear that the EFCC will pick me up next week after my tenure. Wherever they keep me, I’ll spend time doing research. There are many things we have done that can be described as legacy projects.

“I believe in Edo State. One of the enduring achievements is our focus on the Edo people and issues that matter to them, implementing necessary reforms,” he said.

The governor stated that he has focused on what he believes in, adding, “Today, you can see what has been accomplished. What happens after that is beyond my control. They can continue with their political witch-hunt and do all they can to harm me. That’s their problem.”

Obaseki claimed that his opponents are envious of his achievements over the past eight years, emphasizing the legacy he has built in the South-South state.

“The country is filled with bitterness, vendettas, and wickedness. Those who have opposed me in Edo State are cruel, very wicked, and filled with jealousy and envy because they cannot match the accomplishments we’ve made in the past eight years.

“But what’s important is to focus on the people to improve Nigeria, as the suffering is excessive. We are privileged to make a difference, so let’s focus on issues, not vendettas. Reforming the bureaucracy is a priority. We focused on the people and the civil servants,” he stated.
