Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has said his administration will not rely on the use of consultants in running the affairs of the state.

Governor Okpebholo stated this when he administered oath taking on members of Edo State Internal Revenue Service, Local Government Service Commission, Edo State Sports Commission and Permanent Secretaries.

The Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Fred Itua in a press statement, noted that the Governor assured that his administration will support the newly sworn in officials to ensure that they discharge their duties efficiently and effectively.

Recall that the immediate past Governor of the state, Godwin Obaseki, had employed consultants to run most of the parastatals in the state.
