The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of plotting to use his vacation in London as an alibi to exclude himself from a planned mayhem set to engulf the National Assembly.
In a statement on Thursday, the National Publicity Secretary of the party, Kola Ologbondiyan, said the PDP is aware of a plan to forcefully reconvene the senate with a view to impeach Senate President Bukola Saraki and his Deputy, Ike Ekweremadu.
The former ruling party spokesperson stated that this was part of the design to undermine the nation’s democratic institutions and completely foist a dictatorial regime on the nation.
Ologbondiyan said: “The planned invasion is also a bid to cover the atrocious and humongous corruption of the Buhari administration, which the National Assembly is set to expose.
“The PDP has been reliably informed about how these APC senators, especially members of the Buhari Parliamentary Support Group, have been provided with huge sums of money, illegally lifted from repatriated funds, to carry out this nefarious act under the guise of urgent need to approve funds for the 2019 general elections.
“Having been demeaned by the widespread condemnation of the recent siege on the residences of the Senate President and Deputy Senate President, in addition to the invasion of the Benue State House of Assembly in a failed attempt to impeach Governor Samuel Ortom and forcefully take over the state, President Buhari is now jetting out of the country so as to appear innocent and oblivious of the political terrors about to be unleashed on the National Assembly.”
