President Buhari has said that the ruling All Progressives Congress
(APC) will find an important national assignment for the outgoing Edo
State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, when he leaves office.
The president said this yesterday at the Palace of the new Oba of Benin,
Omo N’Oba N’Edo Nku Akpolokpolo Ewuare II, before embarking on the
commissioning of several projects in the state.
“It will be a pity to waste his energy by him retiring. I hope there
will be a higher assignment for him to do more for the nation. I
congratulate the governor for his hard work; Oshiomhole is a hard
working governor. We will need his services in Abuja. Thank you for
inviting me, most especially during this time in the country. You have
served two terms and you are about to leave. You deserve a place in
history. I hope the APC will look for a place for you because your
service for the country is far from over,” he said.
President Buhari is currently on a two-day working visit in Edo State.
