According to the governor, “For the Post-Covid-19 economy, our focus would be to resuscitate businesses, sustain livelihoods and re-caliberate our economy for global competitiveness through aggressive diversification programmes. Hence, we would support businesses with low interest loan facilities; strengthening the productive sector by prioritising the Edo Production Hub Initiative and pursuing more impactful policies in the agricultural sector.

“The reforms in the Edo State College of Agriculture and Natural Resources and the Edo State College of Education would be sustained, even as we source for more partners to pull in resources to groom our youth for global competitiveness.”
