Wife of Edo State Governor, Betsy Obaseki, has described the crisis rocking Edo as a battle between light and darkness.
The Edo State House of Assembly has been ladened with controversies with several lawmakers-elect reportedly loyal to the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, still to be inaugurated.
Mrs Obaseki said during the weekend in Benin, Edo State capital, that light must continue to prevail in the state.
She was decorated as patron of the Nigerian Girls Guides Association (NGGA).
Urging women to mentor more women for a better society, Obaseki promised that her husband would ensure the resurrection of good structure and infrastructure that were ignored and buried.
“All of these must change and that is why we are here. We will get more women to join the movement. We will use the Girls Guide to imbibe the spirit of excellence.
“Darkness can never overcome light. Light has come to stay and will continue to prevail. This light is not about any personality,” she said.
“They are fighting for the soul of Edo State. In this state, we must do good; we must destroy evil and establish good things.
“God brought us at a time the state needs serious deliverance. What is going on is a fight between light and darkness. Light will always cause darkness to flee; light has come to stay. It will come to prevail and Edo will move ahead.”
