The ongoing feud between Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State and his Deputy, Philip Shaibu, took a new twist as Obaseki on Friday approved the relocation of the Deputy Governor's Office from Government House.

The deputy governor's new office, an abandoned government property, is located at No. 7, Dennis Osadebe Avenue, GRA, Benin City, several kilometres away from government house.

Already, the state government has erected a signpost at the front of the property to indicate that the building has now been designated as the deputy governor's new office.

Although, the state government is yet to formally confirm the development. Government House sources said the Governor hinged the development on the need to carry out an urgent renovation of the deputy governor's office.

It, was, however gathered that the development is not unconnected with the ongoing rift between Governor Obaseki and Shaibu as the Deputy Governor's Office reportedly underwent renovation less than a year ago.

It was gathered that the Governor has ordered the removal of the Deputy Governor's Office roof in government house to pave way for the supposed renovation. But, pundits believe the move is to prevent Shaibu from accessing his office.

This is a developing story ... more to come!
