Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki has directed that all revenue collection functions of government will now come under the direct supervision of the Governor’s Office.
The governor’s decision was informed when at the end of the month of June, 2023, the revenue status showed that earning fell below N30billion target.
A statement signed by his special adviser on media project, Crusoe Osagie, stated, “On account of that, the governor has queried all Permanent Secretaries and Heads of revenue generating agencies within government, including the Local Government Areas (LGAs), who have not met their mid-year target.
“He has ordered that they are now to come under the direct supervision of the Governor’s Office to ensure the attainment of the N62b target at the end of the year.”
