Obaseki4Gov2016

Mr. Godwin Obaseki, one of the leading contenders for the governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming poll in Edo State, has debunked insinuations in some quarters that he is the “anointed candidate” of Governor Adams Oshiomhole. He said that, from his assessment of his co-contestants, majority of them have what it takes to govern the state. “I don’t know about being an anointed candidate. I know that I decided when I looked at the horizon an...d looked at the future. I looked at the challenges that we’re facing and we’re likely to face in the future. I felt that this is not the time to abandon ship. “This is the time (when) people who have something to offer should stand up, and I am excited that quite a number of aspirants are people who are accomplished, who have done well in politics, in their professions or in their businesses. These are very respectable people. In other words, I have lots of respect for most of the other aspirants. Advertisement
“I cannot think of one aspirant today who is not good enough to be a governor of Edo State. Who could have been my governor and, therefore, I just think that it is important to be cordial; it is important to show respect; it is important to share ideas because, at the end of the day, what is it all about? “It is about a contestation of ideas as to who can make Edo better than Oshiomhole did,” he said. On his plans for the state, Obaseki said that he was going to bring to bear his experience, as a man who works round the clock; in ensuring that many blue-chip businesses grow, in line with the dream of their initiators.

REAL CHANGE

EDO-AZURA POWER PROJECT: GODWIN OBASEKI’S ROLE BY INWALOMHE DONALD • The power project is expected to bring reliable and affordable energy to the nation’s grid, aimed at serving nearly 12 million residential consumers.... Mr.Godwin Obaseki currently serves as the Chairman of the Edo State Government Economic and Strategy Team (EST). He served as founding secretary for a New York based US Africa Chamber of Commerce New York in 1992, which promoted US organisations doing business in Africa. Obaseki as chairman of The Edo State Economic Team had advised Governor Oshiomhole to take upon himself some ambitiously near impossible tasks and turned them around. The Azura/Edo Independent Power Project and Edo Water Storm project are obvious examples. The former is a $1 billion project and the first Nigerian power project to benefit from the World Bank’s risk guarantee status, covered by the global bank’s Partial Risk Guarantee structure for developing needs of emerging global markets. It is very credible evidence that the state is a viable centre for global investment hub. Obaseki is instrumental to the setting up of the 450MW Azura-Edo gas power project which finally reached financial closure on 28 December, 2015. Azura Power West Africa managing director and Amaya Capital director David Ladipo told African Energy that the first debt drawdown had taken place on 29 December with notice to proceed issued to engineering, procurement and construction contractors Siemens and Julius Berger the following day. The power project is expected to bring reliable and affordable energy to the nation’s grid, aimed at serving nearly 12 million residential consumers. Godwin Obaseki is Founder & Vice Chairman, Afrinvest West Africa Limited, 27 Gerrard Road, Ikoyi, Lagos. The strategic role Mr Obaseki has played in the economic development of Edo State, especially in his capacity as Chairman of the Economic and Strategy Team, a position which he has held since 2009, and that he brings a wealth of technical knowledge and experience to the planning and execution of key projects and initiatives, have yielded desirable outcomes for the state notably in the areas of infrastructure development, investment and financial administration. He has strong grasp of the state’s issues and his immense contribution in raising the revenue profile of the state and effectively managing scarce resources to ensure that projects are executed and salaries paid promptly, have helped to lay a solid foundation for the economic empowerment and development of Edo State, and expressed a desire for continuity in the implementation, monitoring and completion of key projects in the state?
