BREAKING: Edo Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu impeached

The Edo State House of Assembly has impeached the state’s deputy governor, Comrade Philip Shaibu.

The move is a culmination of the political impasse between the deputy governor and his principal Godwin Obaseki.

Comrade Shaibu was impeached during the Assembly’s plenary session, on Monday, in Benin-City, the Edo State capital.

Shaibu’s impeachment followed the adoption of the report of a seven-man committee set up to investigate allegations of misconduct against the deputy governor.
