The Governor explained that he had worked with most of the aspirants and reserves the right to share his view on whom he thinks would be more competent to occupy his office after he leaves.<\/p>\n

The Governor explained that he had worked with most of the aspirants and reserves the right to share his view on whom he thinks would be more competent to occupy his office after he leaves.<\/p>\n
Governor Oshiomhole revealed that many aspirants have approached him for direction and support but there are several factors to consider in deciding who he finds most competent to be Edo State\u2019s next governor.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf 10 aspirants ask for my support, I can only support one and if I\u2019m going to support anybody as a sitting governor, I should have looked at the person, his records and do my own evaluation.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve worked with people and I know the strengths and weaknesses of all those I have worked with. Even in school a principal will write testimonial for his pupils and in the case of teachers, he will write a report of evaluation of the performance of all the teachers he is working with,\u201d the Governor explained.<\/p>\n
