How Tinubu lied in Akwa Ibom – Senator

734

The Senator representing Bauchi Central and Chairman, Senate Committee on Navy, Isah Hamma Misau, has come out to debunk the claim made in Uyo on Wednesday by Bola Tinubu, that the National Assembly was planning to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.

“If Tinubu has any concrete, reliable and verifiable evidence to the contrary, he should come forward and prove it. A man like him should not be getting carried away by the crowd and making claims that have no basis, said Misau.

Politicians at his level should not be engaging in unnecessary saber-rattling and empty speculation.

” I am surprised that a politician of Tinubu’s caliber will be playing politics with a serious issue like the impeachment of the President of the country just because he wanted to catch the attention of a crowd.

“We, members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Senate, have no plan to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari. There is no need for that process and we are not contemplating it. Our focus right now is to defend democracy and its institutions, fight for enthronement of rule of law, independence of the legislature and the judiciary and ensuring good governance.
