Shaibu sent packing from Edo Government House amid rift with Obaseki

Things are not going on smoothly between Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki and his deputy, Philip Shaibu, as the latest news is that, the latter has been sent packing from government house.

Obaseki and Shaibu have been at loggerheads for sometime now. The reason for their feud isn’t farfetched than Shaibu’s ambition to succeed the Governor.

In a new report the feud between the two over Shaibu’s ambition to pick the Governorship ticket of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has escalated and Shaibu is set to be relocated to another office outside the government house.

Obaseki has been working towards foiling all attempts by his deputy to clinch the Governorship ticket of his party. Also in a recent church event, one of Obaseki’ security outfit prevented Shaibu from gaining access to the governor.

With the recent development, Shaibu’s new office is now located at 7 Dennis Osadebey Avenue, close to the Government House.

The deputy governor’s new office is currently undergoing renovation. In a chat with one of the workers, it was gathered that, the project will be delivered.

“I work for the company handling this renovation of this building. Our job is to deliver the project on Monday as agreed. I do not know how the signboard got to the entrance of the building and I don’t have an idea of what the building will be used for”, the worker said.
