The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, has reiterated his readiness to hand over office to the newly elected governor and deputy governor of the state, whether or not the outgoing governor, Godwin Obaseki, is present.
Shaibu made this statement in a recent interview on Tuesday.
This comes amid rumors that Obaseki is nowhere to be found in the state.
Recall that Obaseki, on Monday, granted pardons to 10 inmates with less than one year left to serve in correctional centers in the state.
Obaseki ended his tenure as governor on Monday and will today hand over power to the incoming governor of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo.
