The incumbent deputy governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, has been accused of stealing a $250k worth of gold wristwatch by a Nigerian man. According to the man who made the allegations in a video that has gone viral now, the incident happened during the 2023 general election in Benin City.
The man who was spotted at the Nigerian Police Force Headquarters in Abuja said he was there to petition the Edo commissioner of police and Shaibu. He alleged that before the general elections, he and some other persons were ‘’abducted” by security agents attached to the deputy governor who took them to Benin City and ‘tried to forcefully plant a gun’ on them.
Revealing further, he alleged that the security men took his Daytona Gold wristwatch with diamond studs on it, alongside his diamond ring. According to the accuser, weeks after the incident, he attended “Afenmai congress” in New Jersey, U.S. where he allegedly spotted his said wristwatch on Edo State deputy governor, Phillip Shaibu. He said, ‘’To my dismay, this year, about some few weeks ago, I went to America. I was in New York and I got to hear that there was this Afenmai congress in New Jersey. “To my surprise, I saw Phillip Shaibu with my Daytona wristwatch with my name on it. I wanted to embarrass him but I was asked to slow down and I should take the matter because it was outside the country and it will not be good for such a thing to happen.”
He said he kept his cool because they were outside the country, but when he returned to Nigeria, he reported the matter to the police. He said the state police has not acted on his complaint, so he had to proceed to the police headquarters in Abuja to file a petition. He vowed to collect his wristwatch from the deputy governor and embarrass him anywhere he sees him.
The deputy governor, Philip Shaibu is yet to react to this allegation.
