Reno Omokri, a former aide to
ex-President Goodluck Jonathan has reacted to the impeachment notice served on
Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom.
Reports had it that eight members
of the State House of Assembly had earlier served the governor an impeachment
notice.
But in a swift reaction, the
governor, who recently decamped from the All Progressives Congress, APC, to the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, said only eight lawmakers lacked the
constitutional powers to remove him from office.
Reacting to the impeachment saga,
Omokri wondered how a minority can impeach the governor.
In a tweet, the former
Presidential aide said the move of a minority trying to impeach a governor was
a “magic” allegedly introduced by President Muhammadu Buhari.
He tweeted, “How can 8
Legislators suspend 15 Legislators then serve impeachment notice on Gov Ortom?
How can the minority suspend or impeach the majority? That‘s the government
magic that Buhari has introduced into Nigeria. They don’t have magic to
improve, only to destroy what others built!”
Omokri, If you have suddenly forgotten or chosen to have amnesia, this will not be the first time such will be happening in our democracy. Since you are a compendium of records, you can check your archive.
