Mr Godwin Obaseki, governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo state, has said that he planned to eliminate wastage and block leakages by introducing  e-governance.

Obaseki said e-governance is more transparent, accurate and makes governance run faster.

He spoke at an interactive session with some social-media expert.

The APC candidate said he would make Edo the hub of Information and Communication Technology (ICT), with a view to gainfully engage youths in the sector.

Obaseki promised to revolutionize governance in a manner that both the people and government can have immediate feed backs on issues affecting them.

He did, “We have built the foundation where we can consolidate on the achievements made in the education sector, but priority will be on primary education because that is the basis and we must get it right from day one.

“And that is why I said this election is very critical to me and the APC because we want to avoid a disconnect of what the current administration has achieved in the past seven and half years

“Not getting it right with polices have always been the problem of many state governments. Once you get the policy right, every other thing will fall into place,” he stated.

Will it make crypto more expensive? Will users simply move elsewhere?
