President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has praised Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State for the successful launch of the New Edo Line Transport Service, calling it a bold step toward infrastructural renewal and effective public service delivery.
Speaking at the APC National Executive Committee meeting in Abuja, President Tinubu congratulated Governor Okpebholo on the Supreme Court’s affirmation of his mandate and affirmed the federal government’s commitment to working closely with his administration. This public endorsement highlights not only the President’s admiration for Okpebholo’s leadership but also a growing synergy between Edo State and the Federal Government.
The revival of the Edo Line under Governor Okpebholo’s leadership has become a symbol of Edo’s renewed journey toward progress. A feat that was completely impossible for the last administration which major on empty promises and unrealizable MOUs which impacted negatively in the lives of the people of Edo State. With modern buses, efficient management, and a people-focused approach, the new transport system is already making an impact — reducing travel costs, creating jobs, and improving access across urban and rural areas. This achievement reflects Governor Okpebholo’s vision of practical governance, inspired by President Tinubu’s reform-driven leadership at the national level.
The strengthened collaboration between Edo State and the Presidency is already yielding benefits across various sectors, including infrastructure, security, agriculture, and youth empowerment.
With both leaders aligned in philosophy and focus, Edo State stands at the threshold of a new era—where governance delivers real, measurable impact to the people.
