The Edo State Government has stated that PHILIP SHAIBU is impersonating the deputy governor and should stop presenting himself as such.

In a statement, Edo State Commissioner for Communication and Orientation, CHRIS NEHIKHARE, said SHAIBU corresponding with various institutions and organisations both within and outside the State is a clear case of impersonation.

He said in the interest of these organisations’ safety, any correspondence from SHAIBU in that regard should be disregarded and considered a forgery.

The statement said the status quo remains that OMOBAYO GODWINS is the deputy governor of Edo State.
