PDP Crisis: Jonathan’s Impeachment On The Cards – Rep. Jibrin
Posted by: daniel on September 12, 2013


Members of the House of Representatives are singing discordant tunes over the crisis plaguing the ruling Peoples’ Democratic Party as Chairman of the Committee on Finance, Hon Abdulmumin Jibrin faulted the statement credited to his colleague and deputy minority leader, Hon Samaila Kawu, that members are not considering the option of impeaching President Goodluck Jonathan.


In a statement yesterday, Hon Jibrin said the decision to impeach the president or not as a result of the crisis in PDP is not within the power of Hon Kawu to decide. He noted that the deputy minority leader was not the spokesman of the House and, as such, cannot speak on its behalf.
“With due respect to him, this statement is shockingly hasty, if not altogether contaminated by downright indiscretion. Hon. Kawu is not the authorised spokesman of the House, so he is not in a position to speak on its behalf. That responsibility is reserved for somebody else, who, as far as the world knows, has up until this moment not made any public statement with regard to the intra-party feud within the PDP”, he said.
He further noted that the House had always exhibited an unprecedented team spirit and cohesion since the inception of the 7th National Assembly and that it was not about to shed “this highly treasured character at this crucial hour”.
According to him, “When a ruling party begins to toe the path of self-destruction in a manner that clearly threatens the unity of Nigeria, it is simplistic for anyone to reduce such a crisis to an internal problem that should be left for the party alone to deal with.


“A majority of us members of the PDP in the National Assembly stand solidly behind the Kawu Baraje faction of the party during this era of unbridled tyranny. This decision is founded on our belief in justice, equity, fairness and total disdain for impunity and any act that tends to relegate our great party to the fiefdom of despotic political mandarins.”
Hon Jibrin stressed that impeachment was a constitutional instrument in the furtherance of constitutional democracy and could not be decided by an individual in reference to Hon. Kawu’s stance.

When and how do they want to carry out this impeachment treat is the question to ponder on.

I de laugh like obasanjo kia kia kia.Seriously constutionally a president can be impeached but in Africa or Nigeria it is not practically practicable!! I jus await the melodrama that would follow any impeachment attempt.

The person who would dare raise up the motion would be so dealth with that others would think twice before making such an attempt.

That is a given na!
They NORTHERNES CANNOT BE BOUGHT this time. . . Having realised they were DULY-DUPED BY OBJ. . . . WITH THE INSTALLATION OF THE HALF-DEAD YARADUA.

Then he DUPED ATIKU. . .after retracting his 'gentlemanly agreement' of a promised HAND-OVER to the NORTH AFTER ONLY ONE TERM IN OFFICE!

Was that not a COLD-HEARTED miscalculation on OBJ's part?

What a macabre joke. . .THAT CAN ONLY COME FROM A SOUTHERN-CHRISTIAN like OBJ who thinks he is sooooooo damn smart!

Mehn! Even SATAN is not capable of such WICKEDNESS!!!

I hope the NORTHERNERS TAKE OVER AND DEAL WITH OBJ in his own coin!

Damn! ABACHA should have killed his AZZZZE!
What a SICK DUDE!!!

Did I mention 'tribe'?

Na so dem be. . .ELEMENTS OF DISCORD AND OPPORTUNISTIC-CONFUSIONISTS!
Tufiaaaaaaaaaaaaaakwa!!!!! Marry or CARRY belle at your own risk! YOU DON BORN SATAN BE THAT!!!

Bianca was not wrong for ABORTING 2 of 'em IMPS. . . I congratulate her on that account. MINUS 2 IMPS WE NEVER HAD TO DEAL WITH!

in there widest dreams, anyway second to comment let m try my luck if it w enter front page.

But seriously the House shd impeach Tukur the Nat Chairman of PDP for mismagement and NOT GEJ. By the way they (members of the (House) seriously need re-training in Switzerland or Iraq on Nig Constitutional provisions on the offences of the President that may lead to Impeachment, not Party crisis.

Anything worth doing is worth doing well, if they want to impeach him, they should ensure there is enough support to push it through. I'm tired of this President.
Nigerians are smart people, I don't understand why we have a dull President, the only exception is when he wants to loot our money.
