Obaseki Lauds State Security Council for Support, Urges Cooperation with Successive Administration

 

Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has expressed appreciation to members of the Edo State Security Council, commending the Council for providing the State with adequate security and necessary surveillance.

The Governor noted that their collaborative efforts with the government and citizens of the State have gone a long way in improving security situation in the State.

Obaseki made this known on Friday November 8, 2024, at the valedictory Security Council Meeting by his administration, held at the State Government House, with representatives from the Nigerian Army, Navy, Air Force, Prisons Service, Immigration Service, Department of State Services (DSS), Federal Road Safety Commission (FRSC), Federal Fire Service, Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), Nigeria Customs Service (NCS), Nigerian Drug Law Enforcement Agency (NDLEA), the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) and other relevant security agencies.

According to the Governor, “We are blessed to have worked with these agencies who by adopting the right technology were able to provide a security blanket over Edo State, such that today, we have a Security Information Management System second to none in this country.

“It is one thing to have security but what is also important is the perception of security. I would say that the giant strides made by my administration in the last few years speak to the fact that the capacity to deal with security issues in Nigeria exists; the people to do the job exist; it is all about working with them and supporting them to perform their duties. We are hoping that the successive administration will continue to work with them.

Obaseki added: “The only thing I can do is to thank you, because we cannot reward you enough. When I look back, I want to say thank you for all you did, because I am leaving Edo much better security-wise. And my advice to the incoming administration is to take security seriously.

“Do not prioritize politics over security, and the citizens too must continue to demand for a secure environment, because we have shown over the last 8 years that it is possible; shown that we have men and women who have the capacity and training to offer security services to the people.

“As I step out of office, I know my success has been largely due to the support I received from you to ensure that we have a safe and secure State. Please keep it up. Continue with the structures we have put on ground. Keep that cooperation that made you very effective, so we can continue to provide security to our people.”

Governor of Imo State, His Excellency Distinguished Senator Hope Uzodimma, has paid a deeply emotional and reflective birthday tribute to his wife, expressing profound gratitude, love, and appreciation for her unwavering companionship and strength throughout their shared journey in life.

In the message released to mark her birthday, the Governor described his wife as a steadfast partner whose presence has brought him joy, balance, and reassurance. He conveyed how privileged he feels to walk the path of life with her by his side, portraying her as dependable, faithful, and strong in moments of certainty and uncertainty alike.

Drawing from literary wisdom, Governor Uzodimma likened his wife to a guiding light in turbulent times, noting that her love has been a source of direction and comfort. He referenced the words of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe to illustrate a love that nurtures rather than controls, explaining that through their union, he has come to understand how genuine love cultivates patience, courage, and enduring hope.

The Governor further reflected on their shared accomplishments, emphasizing that their relationship has gone beyond planning and aspirations to the building of a purposeful and meaningful life together. He described each achievement as a joint success and every milestone as evidence of unity, shared resolve, and mutual commitment. In alignment with Aristotle’s philosophy of love as a single soul dwelling in two bodies, he affirmed that their past experiences and future aspirations remain inseparably connected, with greater accomplishments still ahead.

Offering prayers for his wife, Governor Uzodimma called on God to continually guide her steps, bless all her endeavors, and grant her long life, sound health, and abiding peace. He reassured her of the deep and enduring love she shares with him and their children, a bond he described as far beyond what words can fully capture.

The Governor concluded the tribute by warmly wishing his wife a joyful birthday, celebrating her not only as a life partner but as a pillar of strength, love, and inspiration within their family.
