Senators from opposition parties on Wednesday staged a walkout following a call to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.

This followed a mild drama that played out during the plenary in the upper chamber of the National Assembly in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

The Minority Leader of the Senate, Senator Phillip Aduda, had raised a point of order asking the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, to discuss the security situation in the country and the impeachment of President Buhari.

But Senator Lawan, who presided over the plenary, declined the request of the minority leader, saying the point of order raised fell flat on its face.

SOURCE

Minority Leader Phillip Aduda, has said the caucus is giving President Buhari a six-week ultimatum to address the security crisis in the country failing which they will commence impeachment proceedings against him.

SOURCE

Aduda said during plenary: “At our closed door meeting, we agreed that we will discuss the issue of security at plenary and then ask the president on what to do. We agreed that if he didn’t execute them, we will commence an impeachment notice to President Muhammadu Buhari.”

President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan stopped him. He said: “That notice falls short of what the rule book says. You didn’t cite any part of our rules and I can’t tolerate it. You didn’t consult me. So, I can’t allow it.”

Thereafter, Aduda led a walkout.

Most actions or decisions on National issues are taken from the perspective of Religious, Tribal or Party affiliations rather than from the perspective of rationality or overall interest of the masses.

This has been the bane of this geographical contraption called Nigeria. & we will never make any meaningful progress like this.

Lol the legislature at all levels are cowardly. The can't override a veto not to talk about impeachment. I will believe it when I see it from them. The first NASS did a veto override to pass NDDC. I can't tell you an example of state assemblies ever doing such a thing.

APC and PDP have failed

Buhari, Atiku and tinubu are all failures.

We need and deserve a breath of fresh air in our political atmosphere.

Nigeria needs Peter Obi more than ever before.

"If ye be willing and Obedient, ye shall eat the good of the land" - Isaiah 1:19

Arm yourselves with your PVCs and reclaim your country.

We are in a mar or make situation, it's either we get it right in 2023 or we are doomed forever.

Peter Obi has all what Nigerians and Nigeria need, be it frugality in spending, economic acumen, ability to recruit the best hands, detribalised, unbiased against any religion or ethnic group, proven track record, zero tolerance to corruption, has age on his side, focus on the youths, tech savvy, vibrant, lover of education, detests poverty, ready to hit the ground running, honest, healthy etc...

These and many more are what he has against all other candidates who are after our ever depleting national treasury as proven by their antecedents.

I remain Obidient

Shun tribalism, religious inclinations and ethnicity and go for the best. He clearly stands out among the rest. So many corruption cases, drug dealings, financial misappropriation hanging on the necks of Tinubu and Atiku. None was found on Obi, forget the propaganda.

Vote Peter Obi
Vote Labour party

Thereafter, Aduda led a walkout.

Let the useless dishonorable Honorables proceed with the impeachment of the President. Then we will see if they have the gut to see it through. They are part and parcel of the problem. The National Assembly is a burden on the population and have nothing positive to contribute but rather a drain to our collective wealth.

As I said earlier the Legislature is toothless and unarguably rubber-stamp in Nigeria.

How can you refuse a point of order for the impeachment of the President majorly because he didn't cite any part or he didn't consult you, when it is glaring that the President has grossly failed in his constitutional duties to Nigeria.

Can't he be asked to amend his point of order and within a few days the process begins.

We neither have a President not a Senate. We only have Politicians in Power.

God help Nigeria 2023.
