Former labour leader and re-elected Governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole today (Monday) took an oath of office for another four years at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin, Edo State.
Oshiomhole pledged before a large crowd to rededicate himself to the development of the state.
It would be recalled that the Governor was sworn in as Governor of the state in 2008, after the Appeal Court had declared him the authentic winner of the April 14, 2007 governorship election in the state which he contested with Prof. Osarhiemen Osunbor of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Oshiomhole was voted back to office in the July 14, 2012 governorship election where he defeated the PDP candidate, Gen. Charles Airhiavbere with a wide margin.
Prior to the end of his first term, Oshiomhole had dissolved the caretaker committees in the 18 local government areas of the state and on Friday, he also dissolved the State Executive Council.
