The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Phillip Shaibu, has assured his supporters of victory in the forthcoming governorship election in the state. He gave this assurance in an interview with TVC News on Monday, November 27, 2023.

Shaibu expressed confidence in his chances of defeating the preferred candidate of his principal, Governor Godwin Obaseki, in the gubernatorial race slated for next year.

“Definitely, I’ll defeat the so-called candidate of the governor, not because I have the power, but because Edo people want their own, and I am their own. Edo people do not want importation; they want their own.

“The problem I have with the governor is that he has allowed certain individuals with an interest in governance to come between us,” he stressed further.

The politician, who declared his intention to run for the top seat of Edo State under the umbrella of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), barely 24 hours ago, inaugurated his campaign office in Benin City, the Edo State Capital, amid a mammoth crowd of supporters.
