In a recent Channels Television news broadcast, the Governor made it clear that he hadn’t received any formal notification about the possible removal of Deputy Governor Shuaibu through impeachment.
Governor Obaseki underscored that Shuaibu had not officially declared his personal aspiration to become the state’s governor, either to him or to the public. The Governor stressed the significance of patience, party cohesion, and the successful completion of their ongoing term.
The Channels Television report also highlighted Deputy Governor Shuaibu’s secretive discussions with opposing political parties, which contradicted the principles of legislative unity within the PDP, suggesting disloyalty and breaking the unspoken “bro code.” An investigation revealed that the Governor, who had previously entrusted leadership responsibilities to his deputy, was troubled by Shuaibu’s portrayal of him as an adversary and the spread of misinformation.

In conclusion, Governor Obaseki urged his deputy to collaborate with fellow PDP members to bolster party unity. He emphasized that false narratives in the media would only hinder the party’s efforts to unite before the end of their term. It is crucial for them to work together and focus on their shared goals for the benefit of the state and the party’s future success. (Video)
