In their words they decry the impeachment proceedings of Edo State House of Assembly led by Hon. Blessing Agbebaku saying: “No to impeachment”, “We want peace in Edo State”, “Return the N500 million bribe to Obaseki”, “Shaibu is our Next Governor, no going back”, among others.

Mr Aminu Umosor, Gafata Emmanuel and Haija Anetu Momodu, who spoke on behalf of the protesters, said they would mobilise the people of the state and the PDP to work against the party if the House of Assembly and Governor Obaseki continue with the planned impeachment of Comrade Philip Shaibu. 

According to them, their protest is to show to all Edo people that they stand by Comrade Shaibu and the mandate they gave to him, noting that, if Governor Obaseki and the House of Assembly are ready for dialogue and true reconciliation, they should come with clean hands and not impeachment notice. 

The group appealed to the lawmakers to stay clear of any move to impeach the deputy governor to give the state its desired peace. Mr. Emmanuel warned the legislators against the act. He maintained that the protest would continue until Governor Obaseki and the lawmakers embrace peace.
