The face-off between the Speaker of the House of Representatives and policemen Thursday is threatening to pit the legislators against President Goodluck Jonathan who, it was gathered, they are now plotting to impeach. This, according to some sources, is one of the issues raised on the floor of the House when the legislators had an executive session after the commotion that ensued while the police were trying to block the Speaker from entering the parliaments premises. It was gathered that in their bid to pay the executive arm back in its own coin, the legislators resolved to commence impeachment proceeding against President Goodluck Jonathan and the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha, for their breach of the 1999 constitution of the federal republic. According to the source, over 120 signatures have so far been collected for the purpose. The President has breached and violates the 1999 Constitution and is therefore liable to be impeached under section 143 of the 1999 Constitution. So therefore, I want to hereby submit that come December 3, we will begin to invoke and draw up articles of impeachment of Mr. President,” he declared. AMEN!
