The committee set up by the Edo government to recover government assets says over 200 vehicles belonging to the state are missing.
The chairman of the committee Kelly Okungbowa shared the information with journalists in Benin City, the Edo State capital on Friday.
He said three of these vehicles have been recovered less than a day after the group was inaugurated.
Okungbowa assured the Edo people that the committee was determined to recover the missing government vehicles.
According to him, bags of rice and garri meant to be palliatives from the Federal Government for the people of the state were discovered in one of the three vehicles recovered.
Governor Monday Okpebholo – of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and who recently took over from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) government – had set up the committee on Thursday to recover all government vehicles said to be in private custody.
