Shaibu, who had a falling out with Obaseki due to his gubernatorial ambition, expressed regret for his past choice of words against Oshiomhole. He emphasized that Oshiomhole, now a senator, continues to be his father despite their political variances.

On Monday, Shaibu explained that his aspiration to succeed Obaseki is inspired by a divine conviction to serve the state and bring governance back to the people. He acknowledged consulting widely and seeking guidance through prayers before declaring his intention to contest, despite the apparent plans of the governor to support another candidate. Shaibu asserted his constitutional right to pursue the position of the next Governor of Edo State.
