Chief Press Secretary to Governor Monday Okpebholo, Fred Itua, says almost 500 vehicles belonging to the Edo State Government are still missing. DAILY POST reports that Okpebholo had earlier said 200 vehicles were missing, prompting him to set up a committee to recover the vehicles and other assets belonging to the state.
However, on Monday, Itua explained that based on information obtained by the recovery committee led by Kelly Okungbowa, the figure has been discovered to be higher. “So far, the committee set up to recover vehicles, as of this morning from findings that I made, they had recovered about 10 vehicles,” Itua said on Monday’s edition of Channels Television’s Lunchtime Politics.
” According to him, some officials of the Okpebholo administration do not have vehicles, adding that the current government inherited nothing from Obaseki. The development is the latest in the Edo State government’s inquiry into the administration of Obaseki, which rounded up about three weeks ago.
