The Secretary to the Edo State Government (SSG), Barr. Osarodion Ogie has been reportedly confirmed as the running mate of Dr. Asue Ighodalo, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate for the forthcoming Edo State governorship election.

This was disclosed to newsmen in Benin City on Friday by a PDP chieftain who preferred anonymity as he was not authorised by the party to speak to the press on the development.

The SSG is a politician, administrator, and lawyer like Dr. Ighodalo; a brilliant policy developer and renowned strategist, whose sterling contributions have heralded significant peace, stability, and progress in our body polity according to his supporters.

Osarodion Ogie, during Governor Adams Oshiomhole’s administration, was a Chief Of staff and later appointed Commissioner for Ministry of Works (now Roads and Bridges) in Edo.
