Nigerian singer, rapper and the Jagajaga crooner, Eedris Turayo Abdulkareem Ajenifuja, popularly known as Eedris Abdulkareem, has commended Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State on his developmental stride across the state, scoring his administration high on infrastructural development.
Commissioner for Information and Communication, Prince Kassim Afegbua, took the music star round some legacy projects executed by the Okpebholo administration.
The projects visited include Sapele Road Flyover at Adesuwa Junction, Road construction at NEPA Junction, Sapele Road, Ramat Park Flyover, road projects at Temboga amongst others.
AbdulKareem was in Edo Central Senatorial District over the weekend with Gov. Okpebholo to inspect projects before embarking on the inspection tour of projects in Edo South Senatorial District.
The Nigerian singer and rapper said he came into the state from Abia State where he had spent two months to shoot a musical documentary for Governor Alex Otti, noting that he will be coming to Edo State again to spend three weeks to go round projects and portray it in his musical video to be released later.
“I sang about Jagajaga about 25 years ago but today former President Olusegun Obasanjo is a campaigner of jagajaga.
“I have gone round Edo State and have seen what the Governor has done for Edo people. I urge you all to wait, see and listen to what my music says about the developmental stride of Edo State Governor.
