Edo 2024: Ighodalo has no hand in Shaibu’s Impeachment
By Edison Edeigba
Asue Ighodalo Media Team in a press statement, has dismissed the claim that its principal, Dr. Asue Ighodalo, Edo gubernatorial candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) involvement in the process leading to Mr. Philip Shaibu’s impeachment and subsequently removed from office by the Edo State House of Assembly.
The team said the claims by Comrade Philip Shaibu lack merit, false and a clear attempt to tarnish the reputation of Dr. Asue Ighodalo and divert attention from the actual issues at hand.
The statement reads; PRESS STATEMENT
While we would not usually join issues in response to every passing comment, it has become imperative to address the recent spurious allegations by former Deputy Governor Phillip Shaibu.
It is necessary for the record, and to state in no uncertain terms, that Mr. Asue Ighodalo had no role or involvement in any form whatsoever in the very public process leading to Mr. Shuaibu’s impeachment and subsequent removal from office by the Edo State House of Assembly.
The claims by Comrade Philip Shaibu, the erstwhile Deputy Governor of Edo State, are completely without merit, and Mr. Ighodalo categorically distanced himself from any such involvement. These allegations are clear attempts to unjustly tarnish his reputation and divert attention from the actual issues at hand.
We urge the public and the media to disregard these false statements.
Asue Ighodalo remains focused on running a governorship campaign based on issues, and devoid of distractions.
