Justice Daniel Okungbowa, the chief judge of Edo State, has examined the investigative panel that was established to look into the accusations made against Philip Shaibu, the state deputy governor.
This is a step in the procedures the legislature started to remove the deputy governor from office.
Prof. Violet Aigbokhaebo and Prof. Boniface Edegbai were removed from the revised list, which was made available in a letter signed by the chief registrar of the court, B.O. Osawaru, on Monday.
The panel is anticipated to start meeting in the upcoming days following the evaluation of the list, which was previously made public on Friday.
The panel will still be chaired by Hon. Justice S.A. Omonua (retd.).
Other members are Prof Theresa Akpoghome, Oghogho Oviasu, Dr. Andrew Oliha, Idris Abdulkareen, President Aigbokhian, and Mariam Ilavbare.

Okungbowa has constituted the panel of seven persons to investigate the allegations contained in the impeachment notice against the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu.
