Senators planning to impeach Buhari, Tinubu alleges
National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Tinubu , has alleged that some members of the National Assembly are planning to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari .
But he warned the plotters to drop their sinister move , saying it is not “ possible for a lizard to wrestle an antelope .’’
Tinubu spoke on Wednesday at the formal defection of ex -Senate Minority Leader, Senator Godswill Akpabio , at a packed Ikot Ekpene township stadium in Akwa Ibom .
He described what is happening in the country now as “ a war between progressives and the conservatives. ”
“ We believe in government of the people, for the people and by the people; but the conservatives believe in government of sharing.
“ We say Nigerian money belongs to Nigerians. We say Nigerians must be given development . We believe in investing in the people.
“ But they believe in sharing and looting the money .
“ Today , we are aspiring in our vision , but the Peoples Democratic Party has no vision . They believe in sharing and looting the treasury . ’’
Nigerians, he said , gave PDP 16 years to rule but the party failed .
“ Today , Buhari says we must change ; we must account for Nigeria ’ s money , but they are resisting. ’’
He expressed happiness that Akwa Ibom had embraced the change of Buhari .
“ With the present posture of the state, it “ shall sweep the evil out with the broom , ’’ Tinubu said .
Quoting what appears to be a passage from the Bible’ s Book of Isaiah Chapter 14 verse 23 , Tinubu , a Muslim said : “ The people in the city shall be swept away with brooms .’’
The Bible verse actually reads : “ I will make Babylon a desolate place of owls , filled with swamps and marshes . I will sweep the land with the broom of destruction. I , the LORD of Heaven’ s Armies , have spoken !” ( New Living Translation )
He praised Akpabio ’s wife , Ekaete, for her resilience and steadfastness in her support for her husband .
The Secretary to Government of the Federation , Mr . Boss Mustapha, who represented Acting President Yemi Osinbajo , told the people of President Muhammadu Buhari ’ s love for them.
He said that the facts on ground support the agitation for the return of Buhari in 2019 .
He explained that of the 36 ministers , 18 were Muslims and 18 Christians, with the Christians holding many important positions.
Mustapha, a Christian , explained that Vice President Osinbajo is a pastor .
He named other key members of the government who are Christians to include governor of Central Bank of Nigeria ; Ministers of Finance, Petroleum , National Planning ; as well as the party ’s national President , Adams Oshiomhole .
He said that Buhari was the only candidate who could generate 10 million votes , “ unlike others that could not boast of 800 votes .”
