The Edo State Government has called on PHILIP SHAIBU to stop impersonating as the deputy governor.
Recall that a Federal High Court in Abuja reinstated SHAIBU as the deputy governor of Edo State on 17th July 2024,three months after the Edo House of Assembly had impeached him.
Judge JAMES OMOTOSHO declared that SHAIBU’s impeachment by the state assembly was illegal, and ordered the Inspector General of Police to restore SHAIBU’s security details, directing that his salaries and allowances should be paid in full from April when he was removed from office.
The Edo Assembly has appealed the judgement and filed for a stay of its execution pending the determination of the appeal.
However, SHAIBU, in an interview after his reinstatement, said the judgement that reinstated him was declarative and must be implemented before an appeal could be considered.
