Outgoing Senate Leader, Senator Ahmed Lawan and National Chairman of the
All progressive Congress, APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole have scheduled a
meeting at 8pm (Nigeria time) today with dissident Senators to perfect
moves to invade the National Assembly tomorrow.
A text message from Senator Lawan directed all APC Senators to report at
the office of the APC National Chairman on Aso Drive at 8pm today,
(Monday) to be briefed on plans to remove Senate president Bukola Saraki.
Recall that Oshiomhole, had accused Senate President Bukola Saraki of not
acting in the interest of Nigeria.
He also reiterated the APC’s call that Mr Saraki should resign or be
removed from office.
“Lastly, in support of my ‘thesis’ that the Senate President, Dr Bukola
Saraki has never acted in the Nigeria National interest in view. My
parlance submission is the way in which he adjourned the Senate about two
weeks ago.
“The Senate calendar is not a secret to the presiding officer of the
Senate. The Senate calendar that was known was that the Senate was going
to be adjourned by Thursday. By Tuesday morning, or Monday night, Senator
Saraki used his guest house, write out the name of senators in provisions,
straight for signatories for Senators to decamp to the PDP from the APC.”
“How can a presiding officer arrive at such a conclusion that there was a
plan to carry out illegal impeachment. Until an action takes place, how
can you determine the status?” Mr Oshiomhole said.
