Edo State Deputy Governor Impeached by State Assembly

The embattled Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, has declared his intention to combat his impeachment by the state House of Assembly, asserting that the assembly’s action is illegal.

Shaibu, who was impeached on Monday following reports by the Justice S.A. Omonua-led seven-man panel investigating the impeachment petition against him, expressed his determination to seek redress.

In a broadcast shared on his official handle, Shaibu emphasized his commitment to challenging what he perceives as an injustice, stating, “We will fight this injustice with every strength in us for the sake of Edo State and the future of Democracy.”

He said, “I denounce in the strongest terms the illegal impeachment by the Edo State House of Assembly. This is not just an attack on me as an individual but on our very democratic principles.
 
“It is a threat to the foundation of our democracy. Let it be clear that this impeachment came because of my ambition to contest the 2023 Edo State Governorship election under the Peoples Democratic Party PDP.
 
“An ambition that is a legal right to all citizens of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
 
“It is a sad reality that those in power seem to silence opposition through illegitimate means. I have dedicated my love to serving the good people of Edo State with integrity and honesty”.

Shaibu attributed his impeachment to his ambition to contest the 2023 Edo State Governorship election under the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which he considers a legal right for all citizens of Nigeria.

Expressing disappointment in the actions of the State Assembly members, Shaibu accused them of forsaking their oath of office and participating in his impeachment. He warned that history would judge them harshly for betraying the people who elected them to represent their interests.

Shaibu concluded by reaffirming his dedication to serving the people of Edo State with integrity and honesty, despite the challenges he faces.
