Too bad: More than 120 Lawmakers Sign to impeach Goodluck Jonathan

Sad one, More than 120 lawmakers have added their signatures for the impeachment of President Goodluck Jonathan, according to Vanguard.
The impeachment notice is expected to be served immediately the House of Representatives reconvenes in December. The lawmakers, Vanguard reports are members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).


Reacting to the alleged impeachment plans, Chairman, House Committee on Media and Public Affairs, Mohammed Zakari (APC, Kwara,Baruten/Kalama Federal Constituency) said “the notice of impeachment was not on the order paper today but I’m not foreclosing that some other things took place.”

Deputy House Leader, Leo Ogor however urged members of the lower house to dump such plans.
He argued that the notice of impeachment is inconsequential, as the President had no hand in what transpired at the National Assembly where policemen used tear gas on lawmakers who attempted to force their way into the barricaded national assembly complex.
“The President is unaware so bringing it (impeachment) up is going to be defeated. The President has done no wrong, impeachment should not even be part of the issue,” said Ogor.
