WE SIGNED IN ANGER! A member of House of Representatives, Hon. Oyetunde Ojo has expressed reservation over the move to impeach President Goodluck Jonathan saying the members of the National Assembly signed the president’s impeachment notice out of provocation and anger. Ojo who is seeking re-election as the member representing Ekiti central federal constituency II on the platform of the All Progressives’ Congress (APC) said his colleagues hurriedly signed the impeachment notice to register their displeasure at the security agents’ harrassment on them at the National Assembly’s gate. Speaking with journalists yesterday in Aramoko-Ekiti, headquarters of Ekiti West Local Government of Ekiti State, he said “to be honest with you, although we were recalled to the house that day because of the emergency situation in the North-East, we have only sat once since the recess, the impeachment notice was signed in anger by us. You remember that we were tear-gassed that day, both members of the two houses. The lawmaker said the issue had gone beyond the House and had to do with the survival of our democracy. “The impeachment notice was signed by members, we will look into it, but to the best of my knowledge, I do not think there is a serious level of impeachment of the president now, until we resume at the House.”
