iKey promise, Winner of the Edo State governorship election, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has said that the key promise of his administration is job creation.
He made the promise on Channels Television’s News At 10 on Thursday, few hours after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared him winner of the Edo election.
Restating his commitment to fulfilling his campaign promises, Obaseki said that creating an enabling environment for employment to thrive, through vocational training and skill acquisition programmes, is his immediate priority.
He explained that his approach would be first to document the available unemployment data in the state to form the basis of the implementation of his plans.
“These will include short term vocational training, skill acquisition and other technical trainings we need to provide them.
“The key here is trying to get people back to work, creating opportunities for them to work,” he said.
Also top on the mind of Obaseki is building infrastructure and reforming the educational system in the state.
