The office of the Edo State deputy governor, Philip Shaibu, has been relocated to a building outside the government house.
The development followed the feud between the governor, Godwin Obaseki and his deputy.
It was gathered that the new office is situated at No 7, Dennis Osadebey Avenue, close to the government house.
The new deputy governor’s office used to be the state Public Procurement Office commissioned by a former Governor of the state, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, on December 16, 2014.
The simmering crisis between Obaseki and his deputy had taken a new twist recently.
Recall that Shaibu staged a walkout of an event organised by the government after his aides were forced out of the hall.
The incident happened barely 24 hours after a Department of State Services (DSS) operative denied Shaibu access to Obaseki.
The incident happened at a church service to mark the 32nd anniversary of the creation of Edo State.
Aside from that, the governor has disbanded the media crew attached to the Office of the Deputy Governor.
Obaseki directed Shaibu to henceforth request for media coverage of activities from the Ministry of Communication and Orientation.
The battle for succession has pitched the deputy governor against Obaseki.
Shaibu, who hails from Edo North Senatorial District, plans to succeed Obaseki, an indigene of Benin in Edo South senatorial district. However, Obaseki is reportedly pushing for a successor from Esanland in Edo Central senatorial district.
