Shuaibu had reserved a space at the hotel, said to be owned by a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Benin, the state capital for his declaration on Monday.
Sources said Shaibu was contacted by the management of the hotel that the space was no longer available for his use while his money was refunded, as another group ('Obaseki finishing well group') had paid for the same venue.
