Culled from PM News:

Edo State Government, in mid-western Nigeria, has secured admission in one of the state’s top secondary schools for 13-year-old Daniel Oikhena, who stowed away in the wheel well of an Arik Aircraft from Benin to Lagos on Saturday August 24, this year. The State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole made this disclosure during the visit of Mr George Uriesi, Managing Director, Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) and other FAAN Management team to him at the Government House, Benin City, yesterday.

Adams Oshiomhole appoints Patrick Obahiagbon Chief of Staff

After being sworn-in to office on Monday for a second term, the Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has appointed Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon as his new Chief of Staff. Hmmm…this is another opportunity presented to him to exert his grammatical prowess after failing to return to the National Assembly. It could be recalled that of recent, Patrick has emceed most of the state functions, including the Oshiomhole’s swearing in. I hope Osho will understand his usual parlance. Congrats to him.
