In terms of creating an enabling environment, we want to create a situation where the ease of doing business in the state is 100 percent. “When the ease of business is improved, production in different sectors will increase,” she said.
She further said that her choice of becoming an aspirant in the Edo governorship race was to increase the voices of women in the decision-making process. “A lot of women are always at the back door; it is time we took our place in the political space; we have to be at the table so that we can shake it. “We thank all our fathers who are standing with us to bring light to the state; we are happy that our fathers are ready to support us,” she said.
