The *Clargy has lauded the strategic and diplomatic engagement of the Executive Governor of Edo State, *His Excellency, Senator Monday Okpebholo*, with members of the Edo Diaspora community in London.

According to him, the Governor’s deliberate effort to _foster synergy, engender trust, and harness the intellectual and financial capital_ of Edo indigenes abroad underscores his administration’s commitment to _inclusive governance and sustainable development_.
“The Governor’s London engagement is not merely ceremonial. It is a profound⁷ demonstration of leadership that recognizes the diaspora as indispensable stakeholders in our collective aspiration to build a New Edo,” *Rev. Omobude* stated.
He further expressed optimism that the resolutions and collaborations birthed from the meeting will translate into tangible investments, knowledge transfer, and strategic partnerships that will redound to the benefit of Edo people at home and abroad.
