Indications emerged yesterday that members of the House
of Representatives are on the same page with their Senate counterparts in their
bid to impeach President Goodluck Jonathan.It was reliably gathered that the
assemblymen would start impeachment process against the President immediately
it reconvenes next Wednesday.This is just as the lawmakers coordinating the
impeachment process have disclosed that they have identified over 50
constitutional violations against the President, which would form part of the
impeachment notice.A ranking officer in the House who revealed this said both
chambers have resolved to work together for the common good of the country by
impeaching President Jonathan for “incompetence, corruption and unprecedented
impunity.”He revealed that the impeachment plot against Jonathan was not a
partisan affair, explaining that lawmakers from all the political parties have
identified with the “cause” and will not give up until the President is “sent
packing.”“I’m sure you read the reports today that senators are going to move
against Jonathan. Now you can confirm that the impeachment thing is not about
APC. It is a non-partisan cause. We have all resolved that the man (President
Jonathan) must go.“Never in the history of Nigeria has a leader displayed such
crass incompetence as we have seen in President Jonathan. It is glaring and you
can feel it. Mr. President, with due respect, has shown that he is not capable
of running this country. That is the basic truth”, he stated.According to the
lawmaker, over 50 impeachable offences have been identified against the
president and members of the House would work closely with the Senate to ensure
that the president is impeached. -
