Atiku Condemns Nyako’s Impeachment, Warns PDP Against Excessive Use Of Power by EliteYouth: 7:41pm On Jul 15, 2014
Atiku of all people have the conscience to utter a word about Nyako's impeachmen,t very funny,he is again seeking for relevance, was he in any of the meetings held in Abuja and Yola by some politicians to rescue Nyako when the impeachment sage was still fresh? did he make any attempt to intervene? he totally blanked Nyako all through, now that the deed has been done he is claiming to be sympathetic.
Was he not VP to Obasanjo when Dariye, Fayose, Ladoja and Alamieyeseigh were impeached, his argument is totally baseless and so annoying.

Pleases read the world‘s most hypocritical statement below.


Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar has warned against the excessive use of power by the PDP-led federal government, a tendency he said was not good for decent democratic practice.

Atiku, who was reacting to the controversial impeachment of Governor Murtala Nyako of Adamawa State, said in a statement issued by his media office in Abuja that wielding the axe of impeachment against elected public office holders to settle scores by the PDP-led federal government would needlessly build up tension in the country.



The former Vice President said the reckless use of impeachment to settle scores could not have been the intention of the framers of the 1999 Constitution.

He said the frequency with which elective officials were being shot down by impeachment would destroy the whole purpose of inserting the impeachment clause in the Constitution.

He regretted that the use of impeachment to harass and humiliate perceived opponents by the PDP-led federal government would ultimately bastardize the spirit in which the constitution provides for the impeachment clause.

The former Vice President admonished the PDP-led federal government to take it easy in the way they use power, adding that the constitution was not meant to provide ammo to anybody to harass and humiliate opponents or force them out of office.

He criticized the use of financial inducements to influence the removal of perceived opponents from office.

According to him, triumphalism in the suppression of opponents is a bad omen for democracy.

I can get his point. PDP should take it easy.

BTW, is this man not from Adamawa? Did he travel while the drama lasted?

Some of our leaders are just telling us of their careless attitudes.
