He spoke while appearing on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Monday.
Godwins said he is learning on the job and won’t hesitate to do all that his principal instructs him to do.
According to him: “It’s okay with me. Life is a process. At 37+, I am already a deputy governor, it has improved my political outlook and I am not in a rush to drag with my governor.
“Whatever he say I should is what I will do. He knows my strength. So, I will dwell on my strength when it comes to adding value. Politically, I am learning on the job.”
Godwins was appointed deputy governor following the impeachment of Philip Shaibu by the Edo State House of Assembly after the adoption of the report of Justice S. A. Omonua (retd)-led impeachment panel.
The panel was set up by the Chief Judge of Edo State to investigate allegations of misconduct and perjury against Shaibu.
Eighteen out of the 20 lawmakers that attended the plenary on Monday, April 8, 2024 voted in favour of the impeachment while one voted against.
