Apex Igbo Socio-cultural organisation, Ohanaeze Ndigbo worldwide, has dismissed the possibility of the National Assembly contemplating impeaching President Bola Tinubu over the economic hardship facing Nigerians.
Ohanaeze added that the Southern Senators would resist any attempt by their Northern counterparts to impeach Tinubu over the economic downturn in the country.
Factional Secretary-general of Ohanaeze, who spoke in a telephone conversation with Aljazirah Nigeria on Tuesday, said“On the potential impeachment of Tinubu by the National Assembly, led by Senate President Akpabio, it is clear that the leadership is subservient to the presidency and lacks the courage to take a stand.

“While the Northern Senators possess the inclination to incite impeachment proceedings, the Southern Senators are expected to resist such actions. The current landscape suggests that any impeachment attempts will face significant pushback.”
According to him, all Nigerians should unite and stand resiliently against these challenges.
He noted that accountability from the President and elected officials is imperative, along with advocating for practical solutions to uplift the lives of the citizenry before it is too late.
