EXCITED EDO STATE GOVERNOR, GODWIN OBASEKI, IN GROUP PHOTOGRAPHS WITH THE TRIUMPHANT BENDEL INSURANCE FOOTBALL CLUB OF BENIN...


Here is a visibly excited Edo State Governor, His Excellency, Godwin Obaseki, and some top goons of Edo State government, in group photographs with team members of the triumphant Bendel Insurance Football Club of Benin (also known as Insurance Football Club), Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria.
The club just gained promotion back to the top division of football in Nigeria - the Nigerian Professional Football League, yesterday November 5th, 2018, after a little more a decade (about 11 years precisely) of absence from the top division.

<<Brief explanation of the photo>>

–In the middle, dressed on White shirt with a blue tie, is his Excellency, Governor Godwin Obaseki.

–Beside the Governor (to his left, on the right in the photo, dressed in the team's yellow tracksuit), is the Deputy Governor, Right Honourable Philip Shaibu (he also plays football, and is actually registered as a player in the team and regularly spent time/trained with the team throughout the season. Wonderful!)

–Just after the deputy Governor (also to his left, still on the right in the photo, dressed in black native attire), is the Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Barrister Osarodion Ogie.

–In between the deputy Governor and the SSG (right behind them, with a red tie on), is the Chief Of Staff, Edo State Government house, Chief Taiwo Akerele.

–(The man on the left after the SSG, behind 2 squatting players, dressed on native attire with a native cap on, is Mika Amanokha, the Honourable Commissioner for Youth and Special Duties in Edo State).

Credit and commendation must be given to the Godwin Obaseki led Edo State government, for the fantastically laudable job they did on the club - which includes massive financial investments, a comprehensive rebranding of the club, fantastic beefing up of the team (involving both players and technical crew), + several other excellent acts, all of which culminated in this enormous achievement. It is a thing of joy, that the efforts and good works of the State government, were adequately and positively rewarded with this qualification of the team to return to the Nigerian Professional Football League, yesterday November 5th, 2018, bringing joy and euphoria to the hearts of their teeming supporters as well as the Government and people of Edo State.
Here's HEARTY CONGRATULATIONS to Bendel Insurance Football Club and to the Government and good people of Edo State.
