Wife of the Edo State governor, Mrs. Betsy Obaseki, has urged politicians to put the people’s interest first.
She attributed the continued support of the people of Edo State for the administration of Governor Godwin Obaseki to the clamour for good governance.
Mrs. Obaseki said this, according to her spokesman Peter Okonkwo, on Wednesday in an online statement, when the Deputy National Women Leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Hajia Hadizat Umoru and Edo Women Leader of the party, Deaconess Lindsay Tes-Sorae, visited her at the Government House in Benin.
She said every politician wanted to see Edo State developed and experienced progress, thereby competing with Lagos State.

Mrs. Obaseki said she was convinced that God wanted to do marvellous things in Nigeria.
Said she: “As Nigerians, we must love our country; we must want our country to be great. We must forget about personal gains and think of the common good.”
