The Oba of Benin, Oba Ewuare II, has showed “total regret”over the believed “lopsided and non representation “by the immediate past Minister of State Budget and National Planning, Prince Clem Agba.
NAN reports that the Oba said in a statement in Benin by Mr Iguobaro Osaigbovo, the Chief Press Secretary to the monarch.
The King reaffirmed that while in office, the ex-minister failed to extend ministerial benefits to Edo South and Edo Central senatorial districts, leaving his people submerged of the benefits of his involvement in the administration.
According to the statement, the monarch expressed unhappy mode while speaking with the Minister who was on a thank-you-visit to the palace for its role in his appointment as a minister by Ex President Muhammadu Buhari.
Oba Ewuare however feels that his good image had help fetched Agba an appointment, stressing that Agba should have returned the kind gesture to the entire three senatorial zones of the state rather than engaged in “politics of disintegration and disunity”.
Oba Ewuare advised all Edo indigenes to use their good offices to attract development to the state and to better the lots of the people.
He said the previous Minister of State Budget and Planning performed “below expectation and neglected his folds. “.
