 STATEHOUSE PRESS STATEMENT PRESIDENT TINUBU'S MESSAGE OF CONDOLENCE TO CHIMAMANDA ADICHIE AND HER FAMILY   With a deep sense of grief, I condole with Ms Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, her husband, Dr Ivara Esege, and the entire family on the passing of their son, Nkanu Nnamdi.   As a parent myself who has suffered the loss of a loved one, no grief is as devastating as losing a child.   I empathise with the family at this difficult time, and I mourn this sad loss with them.   Ms Adichie is a literary icon who has brought joy and light to many homes globally, and I pray she and her family find strength in the Almighty in this trying hour.   My prayers are with the family.   Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces Federal Republic of Nigeria January 8, 2026

 Edo Assembly serves Gov Obaseki’s deputy, Philip Shaibu impeachment notice



Members of the Edo State House of Assembly have commenced impeachment process against the state Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu.


The petition for the impeachment of the deputy governor was read on Wednesday at a plenary session of the house.


The Majority Leader, Charity Aiguobarueghian, who read the impeachment petition during plenary, said the petition was signed by 21 out of 24 members against the deputy governor.


Aiguobarueghian, who said the petition was dated March 5, 2024, noted that the number of members who signed the petition were more than the two-third requirement stipulated in Section 188 (2a) of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria


He said the petition was addressed to the Speaker of the House, Blessing Agbebaku.


The Speaker, who acknowledged the receipt of the petition, said the petition was based on two grounds which were not made public.


The House, however, gave the deputy governor seven days to respond to the petition.


The Speaker directed the clerk of the house, Yahaya Omogbai, to serve the impeachment notice on Shaibu.


Shaibu’s impeachment notice might not be unconnected to his face-off with the state Governor, Godwin Obaseki that had led to him losing out during the just concluded Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, gubernatorial election primaries in the state.


Recall that Shaibu had alleged a plot to impeach him from office, claiming his governorship ambition was responsible for the plot.


He was elected as PDP candidate during a parallel primary election conducted in his residence in Benin City, the state capital.


Asue Ighodalo was also announced winner of another PDP primary exercise which took place at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin.
