Anti Saraki senators plot to impeach him

On Friday members of the Senate Unity Forum tried to convert senators loyal to the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki to have him impeached and change the leadership of the Senate.
 
It was learnt that the SUF members, who contacted the pro-Saraki senators, based their argument on the ongoing trial of the Senate President at the Code of Conduct Tribunal and according to Punch, it seems they have been able to get the support of 12 pro-Saraki senators, mainly from the Peoples Democratic Party members.

It was gathered that senators who supported Lawan’s bid had allegedly met with some All Progressives Congress leaders on the need to remove Saraki and that they had started the meeting with the leaders shortly after the Senate went on recess.
 
A member of the group from the South-West geopolitical zone, who also craved anonymity, confirmed said that they have started reaching out to their colleagues who had joined the camp of Saraki.
 
He said:
“We know that getting the required figure to carry out an impeachment at the moment would be a herculean task but honestly we hope to achieve it very soon. Already there has been a serious move to get our former party members who are with Saraki now back to our camp.
“I can also confirm to you that we have the support of about 12 Peoples Democratic Party senators who are ready to support any move against Saraki. Don’t forget that some ranking PDP senators are still aggrieved over the emergence of freshers as their principal officers.”
Another source said:
“We learnt that the like minds senators are already working on some of their supporters in the PDP camp to reject the ministerial list by refusing to screen them but we are also ready for them. I won’t disclose our strategy for now.”

    2. I know this has been used effectively here in the USA, didnt realize we had this option in Nigeria. Now is the time to seize the opportunity since the folks in Kwara are not too happy with SaraThief.

      Can the lawyers amongst us please confirm this that the people of kwara can actually recall Saraki according to the constitution:

      Chapter Five section 110 of the Nigerian constitution says

      A member of the House of Assembly may be recalled as such a member if –

      (a) there is presented to the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission a petition in that behalf signed by more than one-half of the persons registered to vote in that members’s constituency alleging their loss of confidence in that member; and

      (b) the petition is thereafter, in a referendum conducted by the Independent National Electoral Commission within ninety days of the date of the receipt of the petition, approved by a simple majority of the votes of the persons registered to vote in that member’s constituency.

  29. This novice thinks PDP will join forces with them just like that? The devil only makes a trade, nothing is free, and honestly anybody fighting saraki is only fighting for selfish interest, saraki remains the peoples choice.

  30. Aaarrrgghh!!! This is such a huge distraction! Rather than getting on with the business at hand, creating laws for the betterment of the people, this is what they are engaging in. We better wake up and smell the coffee! These people don't give a shit about us! The Kwarans have woken up, it's time for the rest of us to!

  32. I hope PDP stand with Saraki,because APC will betray them if they work with Tinubu and APC it will come back to bite PDP Senators. PDP Senators should be strong opposition,because the next move will be to remove deputy Senate president,then PDP will have no say in the Senate. South South and South East should unite and have a strong opposition and stand with Saraki.The Yorubas and Hausa have betrayed the Igbos and South South people this is your time to stand as united South South and SouthEast PDP stronghold. Tinubu and APC will use those PDP Senators they are using to impeach Saraki,once APC and Tinubu get their way,they will leave you PDP sell out to hang dry.
