*Plot to impeach Buhari, as Senate President blocks talks on president’s impeachment 

The Senate Caucus of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Wednesday staged a walkout from Chambers in protest against the heightening insecurity in Nigeria.

The PDP caucus who walked out of the Chambers in anger issued President Muhammadu Buhari six weeks to resolve terrorist attacks in the country or face impeachment.

Senate Minority leader, Senator Philip Aduda, in company of other Senators later told journalists that the impeachment issue was actually raised during a two-hour closed-door meeting of the Senate but the Senate President was unwilling to allow the matter to be tabled at the plenary, despite their agreement.

Addis said it was necessary for the insecurity to be addressed immediately because, “it’s obvious that Abuja, the seat of the Federal government is no longer safe, as you all can see.”

Various recommendations by the legislature, Aduda insisted, have been made but security challenges have not abated, hence, they were committed to impeaching President Buhari now.

The Minority Leader, who represents the Federal Capital Territory in the upper legislative Chamber said: “We went into a closed-door session on the state of insecurity in Abuja and took cognisance that Nigeria is no longer safe.

“Senate has recommended various measures and discovered that even Abuja is no longer safe.

“We agreed in the closed session that we will give President Muhammadu Buhari an ultimatum, but the Senate President, Dr Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan didn’t want us to raise the issue.

“However, we have issued six weeks for President Buhari to resolve insecurity or be impeached.

“We walked out of Chambers in protest.”
