OBEY COURT ORDER REINSTATING ME AS DEPUTY GOVERNOR – SHAIBU TO OBASEKI

The outgoing Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki has been told to take the path of honour and obey the subsisting court judgement reinstating his estranged deputy, Comrade Philip Shaibu as the duly elected Deputy Governor of Edo State.

Shaibu made the call in a statement issued by his media team on Tuesday following the decision of the Federal High Court in Abuja to dismiss the application of stay of execution brought before it by the Edo State government and the Edo State House of Assembly against his reinstatement.

Describing the decision of the court presided over by Justice James Omotosho as a “resounding affirmation of the judiciary’s commitment to upholding justice, protecting citizens’ rights, and defending democracy”, Shaibu said Obaseki must now honour this latest ruling.

“It is time to put the interests of Edo State above personal agendas and respect the rule of law. The court has consistently held that Comrade Shaibu’s impeachment was illegal, unconstitutional, and void, violating sections 188 and 35 of the 1999 Constitution (As Amended),” Shaibu said.

Full statement below:

Press Statement:

Re: Federal High Court, Abuja Reaffirms Reinstatement of Rt. Hon. Comrade Philip Shaibu as Edo State Deputy Governor

We, the Hon. Philip Shaibu (HPS) Media Team, warmly welcome the landmark judgment delivered today by the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, reaffirming the reinstatement of our principal, Rt. Hon. Comrade Philip Shaibu, as the duly elected Deputy Governor of Edo State.

A Victory for Democracy and the Rule of Law

Today’s judgment is a resounding affirmation of the judiciary’s commitment to upholding justice, protecting citizens’ rights, and defending democracy. Justice James Omotosho’s courageous decision to dismiss the application of stay of execution brought by Governor Godwin Obaseki and the state House of Assembly is a testament to the court’s independence and integrity.

A Call to Obey the Court Order

We urge Governor Obaseki to take the path of honour and obey this latest ruling. It is time to put the interests of Edo State above personal agendas and respect the rule of law. The court has consistently held that Comrade Shaibu’s impeachment was illegal, unconstitutional, and void, violating sections 188 and 35 of the 1999 Constitution (As Amended).

Immediate Actions Required

Governor Obaseki must:

  1. Obey the Court Order: Restore Comrade Shaibu’s salaries and allowances as Deputy Governor.
  2. Respect the Office of the Deputy Governor: Refrain from attacking the institution and stopping Shaibu from performing his duties.
  3. Pay the Awarded Fine: Promptly pay the N200,000 fine awarded against each appellant for wasting the court’s time.

Commendation and Gratitude

We commend:

  1. Justice James Omotosho for his courageous judgment.
  2. The Inspector General of Police, IGP Kayode Egbetokun, for restoring Comrade Shaibu’s security details since July as directed by the court.
  3. All lovers of democracy for standing tall with Comrade Shaibu.

Conclusion

Today’s judgment is a victory for democracy, and we celebrate this triumph with Comrade Shaibu and the good people of Edo State. We remain committed to upholding the principles of justice, equity, and fairness.

Signed:

    ENUGU LP HOUSE OF REPS MEMBERS JOIN APC

    Enugu LP House of Reps Members Join APC In a decisive political realignment ahead of the 2027 elections, prominent Labour Party (LP) lawmakers and political figures from Enugu State have defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC). Their defection, announced at a high-profile APC Progressive Governors’ Forum meeting, marks a major boost for the ruling party’s expansion in the Southeast. Facilitated by the leadership of APC in Enugu, the Honorable Minister of Innovation, Science, and Technology, Chief Uche Geoffrey Nnaji, the Deputy National Chairman South, Chief Emma Eneukwu, and the State Party Chairman, Hon. Ugochukwu Agballah, the move strengthens APC’s strategic positioning in the region. Agballah officially presented five influential LP defectors, including sitting members of the House of Representatives and former political officeholders, who have now pledged their allegiance to APC: The event, witnessed by top APC figures, underscored the party’s growing appeal in the Southeast. Present were APC National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje, Chairman of the Governors’ Forum and Governor of Kwara State, Alhaji Abdurahman Abdurazaq, alongside Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State, Governor Ahmed Usman Ododo of Kogi State, Governor Bassey Otu of Cross River State, and Governor Hyacinth Alia of Benue State, among other high-ranking officials. This defection signals a significant power shift in Enugu, traditionally an opposition stronghold. Political analysts see it as a calculated move that could redefine the state’s political dynamics heading into 2027. Hon. Ugochukwu Agballah welcomed the defectors, emphasizing the party’s commitment to progress, leadership, and inclusive governance.“ The APC is a party of growth and opportunity. We welcome progressive minds who are ready to drive transformation in Enugu and the Southeast,” Agballah stated. With this strategic reinforcement, APC is making bold moves to solidify its influence in Enugu, setting the stage for a competitive 2027 election.

    KENNETH OKONKWO QUITS LABOUR PARTY, GIVES REASONS

    KENNETH OKONKWO QUITS LABOUR PARTY, GIVES REASONS A former spokesperson for the Labour Party (LP) Presidential Campaign Organisation in 2023, Kenneth Okonkwo, has announced his resignation from the party. Announcing his resignation from the party on Tuesday, Kenneth Okonkwo thanked Nigerians for the support they gave the Labour Party during the 2023 presidential election. “We were the only party that had 25% foothold in all six geo-political zones and the Federal Capital Territory. I believe that we won the election under the Labour Party with your support but were denied the victory through technical glitch”, he said. He stated that by February 25, 2025, it will be two years after the 2023 presidential election and two years before the next presidential election. “It’s a democratic convention worldwide that effective political consultations, alignments, and re-alignments commence two years to the next election. Unfortunately, the Labour Party, as presently constituted, is not in a position to be part of that political force that will determine the political future of Nigeria. According to him, Labour Party as presently constituted does not exist. “In the constitution of Labour Party, the tenure of the ward, local government, and state party executives is three years. Having conducted no congresses at these levels within the constitutionally allowed tenure of the executives, their regimes have effectively expired. “The former National Chairman of Labour Party, Julius Abure, and his former National Working Committee, having conducted no national convention known to law, according to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and the courts having held that the issue of the leadership of a political party is the internal affair of a political party for which the courts do not have the jurisdiction to entertain, there’s no effective leadership of Labour Party at the national level. “The Senator Nenadi Usman-led Caretaker Committee, which was duly and legally set up by the National Executive Council (NEC) of the Labour Party, after the non-recognition of Abure-led National Working Committee (NWC) by INEC, and was given six months to conduct congresses and the convention, was the only viable option towards salvaging the Labour Party. “Unfortunately, Abure and his colleagues, with the collaboration of outside forces, launched unnecessary legal challenges against this Caretaker Committee that have inhibited it from functioning. It’s more than six months after the inauguration of the Committee, and the Committee has not even taken off, leading many to conclude that the objective of these politicians of bread and butter with their outside collaborators is to bog down the serious members of Labour Party with frivolous and unnecessary litigation till the 2027 election is over. Isn’t it curious that a national executive of a political party whose elected members are defecting everyday to other parties, and who can not wage legal battles to recover these seats for their party, is waging ferocious legal battles to maintain their destructive, choking hold on the party. ” It’s obvious that Abure is not interested in the survival of Labour Party as he is interested in the survival of his pocket. If he is interested in the emergence of a southern candidate in Labour Party to challenge Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election, going by the convention of having a northern national chairman of a party and a southern presidential candidate of the same party, whenever going into election, the first thing he would have done is to cede the position of national chairman to the North since the party is interested in fielding a presidential candidate from the South. “This was the suggestion of people like us who are genuinely interested in the survival and flourishing of Labour Party. Nigerians, especially the North, may have overlooked the combination of both the … national chairman and presidential candidate from…
