Philip Shaibu – the impeached deputy governor of Edo State has this morning been restored to his position by the order of Justice James Omotosho of the Federal High Court in Abuja.

Mr. Shaibu filed a petition with the court following his impeachment in April.

Justice Omotoso ruled that the Edo State House of Assembly’s impeachment was unlawful and unconstitutional.

According to the judge, there were flagrant constitutional infringements with the impeachment procedures.

In addition to giving Shaibu his job back, the court mandated that he start receiving his salary and benefits from April onward, the month he was impeached from his position as the state’s deputy governor.

The Edo State House of Assembly has applied for a stay of execution pending an appeal it has immediately filed at the Court of Appeal.
