The immediate past governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, has embarked on a medical vacation.

The former Governor said he embarked on a medical vacation to rest and undergo extended medical checks.

This was contained in a statement released by Crusoe Osagie, the media adviser to the former governor.

The statement reads in part: “Once again expressed his appreciation to God Almighty and the people of Edo state and Nigeria for the opportunity to serve.
