The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has dissolved the State Executive Council, expressing appreciation to members of the council for their service to the government and people of the State.
The Governor said the dissolution of the council takes immediate effect.
The State’s Cabinet was dissolved during the Weekly Executive Council meeting on Wednesday.
The Governor also said that, beginning from Wednesday, all Special Assistants (SAs) and Senior Special Assistants (SSAs) have been relieved of their appointments.
No reason was given for the action as Obaseki’s tenure is expected to end in 2024.
However, political watchers believe the action of the Governor could be one of the fallouts of primary elections which produced Houses of Assembly and Representatives Members, as well as Senators.
The ruling People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the state was divided into factions with each producing candidates and subsequent Litigations.
