Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Blessing Agbebaku has denied rumours making the rounds that there are plans to impeach the Deputy Governor of the State, Philip Shaibu.
The Speaker said this when he led members of the State House of Assembly to meet Governor Godwin Obaseki at Government House, Benin City.
He said the state legislature remains resolved to support the executive to finish well in 2024.
Agbebaku described the Deputy Governor impeachment rumour as baseless and lacking in substance.

Governor Obaseki told his visitors the focus of his administration is not on an imaginary crisis being speculated in some quarters, but in providing critical infrastructure for the people.
The Governor says of current particular interest to him is the several failed portions on Federal roads in the state which are in urgent need of repair, saying the state government will continue to do its best to meet the people’s needs.
