The 15th Senate President of Nigeria, Godswill Akpabio, has found himself at the centre of controversy as his opponents accuse him of employing various tactics to quell the uproar over his potential impeachment.

In the Nigerian political landscape, the Senate President holds a position of power and influence. However, recent events surrounding Senator Godswill Akpabio have raised concerns about his leadership and the manner in which he handles the affairs of the Senate.

In this article, we will look into the details of the allegations made against Akpabio and explore the implications of his actions. From manipulating court rulings to passing bills without proper consultation, Akpabio’s methods have raised concerns among his fellow senators. This article aims to shed light on the situation and provide an in-depth analysis of the events surrounding Akpabio’s tenure as Senate President.

While this article is not meant to smear the Senate President, it is crucial to understand the context in which allegations of Akpabio’s opposition-elimination tactics unfolded. Senator Akpabio assumed the position of Senate President with the backing of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu. However, his tenure has been marred by allegations of subjugating his colleagues under the executive and eroding the independence and integrity of the legislature. This has led to discontent among several senators and a simmering plot to impeach him.

The controversies surrounding Akpabio’s tenure as Senate President have not gone unnoticed by the Nigerian public. Many citizens express concerns about the erosion of democratic principles and the potential for abuse of power. They emphasize the importance of a strong, transparent, independent legislature that upholds the interests of the people and provides effective checks and balances on the executive branch.

The last incident of sharing money to bank accounts, or rather in quotes, “prayers to emails” of fellow senators to enable them to enjoy their holidays while the rest of Nigerians were wallowing in stiff hardship occasioned by fuel subsidy removal by Tinubu, really relegated the integrity of the Senate President and his associates.
