Edo Ex-Gov Blames APC for Inflation-Driven Contract Review Under His Rule.

Edo State's former Governor Godwin Obaseki blames the All Progressives Congress (APC)-led Federal Government for galloping inflation, which led to a review of road contracts under his administration. The inflation is attributed to APC-induced policies.

Edo State's immediate past Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has attributed the recent review of road contract awards under his administration to the high inflation rates exacerbated by the Federal Government of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The soaring prices had made it unsustainable for the state to award contracts at their initial value, prompting a re-evaluation to ensure fairness and sustainability. This move was taken in line with Obaseki's focus on prudent financial management during his tenure.
