Obaseki Reflects On His Legacy: How He Hopes To Be Remembered After Office

Obaseki Reflects On His Legacy: How He Hopes To Be Remembered After OfficeOutgoing Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki stated on Friday that he does not wish to be remembered for his numerous “fights.” This remark came during a press conference after he commissioned the Airport Road Parks and Garden in Benin City, the state capital.

When asked how he wants to be remembered after his tenure, Obaseki responded, “Certainly not for the fights,” likely referring to the political battles he faced against opponents and former allies.

He also shared plans to ensure the garden’s sustainability, aiming to make it a daily attraction for residents. “We’ve created a revenue model to support these public spaces,” he explained, noting that revenue from nearby billboards and support from Prestige Hotel would contribute to the park’s upkeep. The military has also pledged assistance with security.

“I believe in doing the work before celebrating. While we aim to commission as many projects as possible, it won’t reflect the full scope of our achievements,” he added, acknowledging the support he received from the community during his time in office.

The Governor-elect, Monday Okpebholo, will be sworn in on November 12, marking the end of Obaseki’s eight-year term.
