In response to Shaibu's impeachment by the Edo State House of Assembly, Okai criticizes Shaibu's handling of the situation, indicating that he may have received poor advice or overestimated his political influence.

According to Okai, Shaibu should have respected Edo State's power rotation tradition, given his political experience, and allowed his tenure as deputy governor to conclude smoothly.

He highlights the historical pattern of power distribution among Edo's regions and asserts that Shaibu's attempt to subvert this arrangement has backfired, potentially damaging his political future.

Okai contends that Shaibu's recent actions, including purchasing nomination forms despite the established zoning policy, have alienated him from both the ruling APC and other political options in the state.

He suggests that Shaibu's next step should involve legal recourse to address his impeachment and its implications for his political standing.

Ultimately, Okai concludes that Shaibu's political missteps, compounded by his impeachment, have significantly compromised his future prospects, attributing this outcome to poor advice received by Shaibu.
