Less than two years after appointment, the Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, yesterday, dissolved the State Executive Council, expressing appreciation to members of the council for their service to government and people of the state.

The development was made known in a statement issued, yesterday, by the Special Adviser to the governor on Media Project, Crusoe Osagie, saying that the dissolution of the council takes immediate effect.

He noted that the state’s cabinet was dissolved during the weekly meeting yesterday.

The statement also noted that the governor relieved about 200 Special Assistants (SAs) and Senior Special Assistants (SSAs) of their appointments with immediate effect.

It was gathered that the sacked aides were appointed in 2021.
