The Edo State House of Assembly has begun an impeachment move against the Deputy Governor, Philip Shuaibu, as he has been served a notice of impeachment.

The notice of impeachment alleges “gross misconduct” on the part of Deputy Governor Shuaibu.

However, specific details regarding the nature of the misconduct have not been outlined.

It would be recalled that Shuaibu and the governor Godwin Obaseki had been on the loggerhead since last year when he showed interest in succeeding the governor.
