Obaseki’s Wife Tasks Women On Unity, Support

Wife of the Edo State governor, Mrs Betsy Obaseki, has charged women in Edo State to be united and to support government programmes for the development of the state.
Mrs Obaseki also urged women in the state to stay focused in the pursuit of a better life, just as she announced that the Obaseki-led administration had set the ball rolling for the socio-economic rejuvenation of the state.
She made the call during a Christmas and End-of-Year Party organised for women in the state at Government House, Benin City, the state capital.
She said staying united as women would make them stronger and help them to become a force the society would reckon with in both politics and business in the state.
She urged them to remain focused and never allow detractors to take their attention away from “Project Edo” which she said was heading for success.
She noted that women in the Obaseki-led administration have been acknowledged to be doing well and urged her guests to replicate similar feat in their various endeavours, by reinventing themselves and adopting new and better ways of doing things.
The governor’s wife then thanked the women for the support they have extended to her husband and assured that she would continue to fight for more women representations in both elective and appointive positions.
The 2018 Betsy Obaseki Christmas party for women featured gift presentation, dancing competition among others, while a Christmas party was held for children.
