Sulaiman Aledeh has formally tendered his resignation as Managing Director of the Edo Broadcasting Service (EBS), effective 30 May 2026.
The decision, he said, was taken to enable him devote full attention to the next phase of his professional journey as a media practitioner and to pursue other endeavours as a private citizen.
In his letter to the Governor of Edo State, Aledeh expressed profound gratitude for the confidence reposed in him and for the privilege of serving the people of Edo State.
“It has been a singular honour to lead this historic institution and contribute, however modestly, to its repositioning within an increasingly dynamic and competitive media environment,” he stated.
He also extended appreciation to the people of Edo State at home and in the diaspora for their support, engagement, and encouragement throughout his tenure. He described the opportunity to serve the public through broadcasting and strengthen the connection between government and the citizenry as deeply fulfilling.
Aledeh commended the dedication, resilience, professionalism, and unwavering commitment to excellence of his colleagues and the entire EBS workforce. He noted that their efforts made collective achievements possible as they pursued a shared vision of transforming EBS into a modern, credible, and forward-looking public broadcasting institution.
As he departs, Aledeh expressed confidence that the organisation will continue to grow from strength to strength and fulfil its vital mandate in service to the people of Edo State.
He concluded by wishing His Excellency, the administration, the people of Edo State, and the entire EBS family continued success in all future endeavours.
