The Lagos State Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Philip Aivoji, emphasized that despite the impeachment of the ex-deputy governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, there is still a possibility for him to become governor in the future.

Aivoji urged Shaibu to exhibit patience and loyalty to the PDP even after his impeachment, highlighting the importance of remaining within the party.

The Edo House of Assembly’s decision to impeach Shaibu came after a judicial panel’s recommendation, which strained his relationship with Governor Godwin Obaseki due to his interest in succeeding him.

Following Shaibu’s removal, Governor Obaseki appointed a new deputy, Omobayo Godwin, to fill the position.

Aivoji stressed the significance of Shaibu staying with the party and working towards reconciling any differences to achieve his aspiration of becoming the governor.

He advised Shaibu to trust in the party that supported his rise to the position of deputy governor and to focus on mending relationships to realize his goal of becoming the governor in the future.
