The reinstated Deputy Governor of Edo State, PHILIP SHAIBU has resumed office and has directed his staff to follow suit.

He is also warning banks carrying out transactions with the Office of the Deputy Governor of Edo State without his express consent about the illegality of such transactions.

In a video broadcast, SHAIBU mandated those yet to resume work since his reinstatement to do so or face the consequences.

According to him, the judgement of the Federal High Court which reinstated him indicated that his office has never been vacant.

SHAIBU added that upon his return to office he had requested the state governor’s approval for the reinstatement of his aides but has still not received a response to this formal request.
