 The other state governor, Godwin Obaseki, on Monday stated that there was no plan to impeach his deputy, Fleeep Shaibu. The governor, however, noted that the move by Shaibu, seeking a court order to stop his purported impeachment, was pre-emptive ahead of his alleged plan to defect to the all-progressive Congress. When contacted for reaction, the Chief Prosecutor to the deputy governor, Musa Ebomena, said he was on medical leave and could not comment on the matter. Let me put it very clearly on record that I am not aware of any plot or any scheme to impeach the deputy governor, Right Honourable Fleeep Shaibu, I have also checked and there is no such plan or there was no such plan. I must state here that Comrade Fleeep Shaibu has never, he's never had the courtesy to discuss his ambition with me. What I hear is that he is consulting because the last time we spoke about my succession after the last House of Assembly elections, I did say that we should all be patient and that our task today is to try and finish well, to conclude all the projects we have started and to unify and consolidate our party. Because it's only when we do these two things right would we have the support from our people to produce my successor. I made it very clear and like you have pointed out, there is no timetable yet for the Edo elections, it will come later this year. So I believe that this action by him is just a pre-empty move to get a court order, keep his position while he now moves to the other party to get a ticket.
