An Impeached Shaibu Lacks Powers To Give Orders – Gov Obaseki

Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, says his impeached former Deputy, Philip Shaibu, lacks powers to be giving orders.
Gov Obaseki made this known on Friday in reaction to a comment credited to Shaibu, warning Permanent Secretaries and Heads of Ministries, Departments, and Agencies to guard against attempts by political appointees to loot government properties.
In a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Media Projects, Crusoe Osagie, Obaseki told Edo workers to disregard what he described as “infantile ramblings,” asserting that Shaibu remains impeached until the court’s determination and therefore lacks the power and authority to issue directives or warnings to any staff employed by the Edo State Government.
Didactic Information Hut recall that in July, the Federal High Court in Abuja voided the impeachment of Philip Shaibu as the Deputy Governor of Edo State. Attempts by the State Government and the House of Assembly to secure a stay of execution had also failed.
Recently, Shaibu has been seen taking up what he called the duties of his office.
