A former Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, has resigned as Chairman of Edo State Private Property Protection Committee.
Edo Governor, Godwin Obaseki, made the announcement on Tuesday in Benin the state capital.
He lauded Arase’s contributions to the success recorded in the fight against illegal Community Development Associations (CDAs) in the state.
“I received Dr. Solomon Arase’s resignation with mixed feelings”, The Nation quoted him as saying.
“We wish him well in his national and international engagements and accept his offer to serve as honorary adviser on security matters to my administration.”
“My administration is grateful to him, a worthy Edo son, who offered his robust experience and expertise in laying the foundation for the Edo State Private Property Protection Committee, without any remunerations.
“Today, Edo State is rated high in the ease of doing business index and has been set on a growth trajectory, due largely to the work of the Private Property Protection Committee to eliminate man-made encumbrances in property ownership and development across the state.”
