FG won’t respond now to court-approved impeachment of Buhari

121
The Federal Government has said its reaction to Wednesday’s court order of mandamus for the National Assembly to begin impeachment process against President Muhammadu Buhari, it’s on hold for now.
A Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo, Osun state, presided over by Justice Maureen Onyetenu, had on Wednesday given the order in a motion filed before her by the Chairman, Nigeria Bar Association, Ilesa branch, Mr. Kanmi Ajibola; and a human rights activist, Mr. Suleiman Adeniyi.
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, told State House corespondents after the weekly meeting of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) that he cannot react because he had no information on it.
Asked to give government’s reaction to the the case, Mohammee said he was just hearing of it for the first time.
“I’m just hearing it from you. I will have to read it myself,” he said.
