The Edo State House of Assembly has impeached the state Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu.
The embattled former deputy governor was impeached at plenary on Monday.
The impeachment was sequel to Justice S.A. Omonua (rtd)-led seven-man panel investigation of the impeachment petition against the former deputy governor.
The panel in its report said the allegation of perjury was not proved beyond reasonable doubt by the complainant against Shaibu.
It, however, said that the allegation of disclosure of government official documents was proved beyond reasonable.
18 of the 20 members that were present at the plenary voted in favour of the panel report while one voted against.
