The Media Team of Dr. Asue Ighodalo, the Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for Edo 2024 Gubernatorial race, has debunked the rumour and allegations that their Principal has a hand or involved in the public process leading to Rt. Hon. Philip Shuaibu’s impeachment and subsequent removal from office by the Edo State House of Assembly.
The Media Team debunked the allegations in a Statement made available to newsmen today, saying that the claims were completely without merit, and Mr. Ighodalo categorically denies any such involvement
According to the Statement “While we would not usually join issues in response to every passing comment, it has become imperative to address the recent spurious allegations by former Deputy Governor Phillip Shaibu.
“It is necessary for the record, to state in no uncertain terms, that Mr. Asue Ighodalo has had no role or involvement in any form whatsoever in the very public process leading to Mr. Shuaibu’s impeachment and subsequent removal from office by the Edo State House of Assembly.
“These claims are completely without merit, and Mr. Ighodalo categorically denies any such involvement. These allegations are a clear attempt to unjustly tarnish his reputation and divert attention from the actual issues at hand.
“We urge the public and the media to regard these false statements with well deserved skepticism.
“Asue Ighodalo remains focused on running a governorship campaign based on issues, and devoid of distractions.”
