Why you should wear Tinubu-branded outfits – Okpebholo to Edo cabinet members




Governor of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo, has stated why members of his cabinet should wear branded outfits bearing President Bola Tinubu’s insignia.

According to Okpebholo, the above is a way of showing their support for the president.

The directive was given on Tuesday during the swearing-in of newly appointed commissioners and inauguration of commissions and boards of agencies in Benin.

While attributing his emergence as governor to Tinubu, Okpebholo stated that loyalty to the president must be reflected even in appearance.

“This could not have happened if we did not have a responsible president. We have done many elections here, and the major problem we have had is that the president is not with us, but today we say thank you.

“I will not forgive any commissioner that is not wearing this cap. In our exco meetings, if you are not wearing a suit and you are coming to the meeting without this Asiwaju cap, you will go back,” Okpebholo said. (SUN)
