Obaseki lifts suspension on LGA Chairperson

Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has lifted the suspension on the Chairperson of Egor Local Government Area, Eghe Ogbemudia.
Obaseki made this known in a statement issued on Monday by Crusoe Osagie, his Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy.
According to the statement, Ogbemudia’s suspension was lifted after an investigative panel cleared her of the accusations that led to her suspension.
The Governor’s aide said Ogbemudia was suspended after several petitions were written against her by officials of the council alleging financial misappropriation and abuse of power.
Osagie said: “The cases brought against her have been reviewed and she has been cleared of the allegations, thus her reinstatement.
“She is to resume office immediately.”
He said the reinstatement would provide her the opportunity to continue in repositioning the council in line with the vision of the Obaseki-led administration of efficient management.
