Senators sang discordant tunes over the alleged impeachment plot in the Senate against President Goodluck Jonathan.
Senators of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) on Tuesday, disagreed sharply on the existence of such an engagement.
Senator Alkali Jajere, a member of APC, had told newsmen that 65 senators were behind the impeachment plot, adding that the said impeachment register was swelling by the day.
Senator Ayogu Eze, a PDP senator from Enugu, however, said, “Put me on record, Senator Jajere is a blatant liar for saying that 65 or 70 senators have signed his alleged impeachment list against President Jonathan.
“The said list is non-existence in the Senate and why didn’t you tell him to show you the list on which he said he was number four and, in particular, ask him who is number 65 there?
“To me, Jajere is a story teller. We are waiting for him and his other signatories who are more of spirits than human beings in the Senate and let me put it to him and his other people that if they think they can intimidate the president or PDP out of power, they are just day dreaming because the man will contest the 2015 election and going by realities on ground, he will win.”
Ya’u said impeachment was not practicable in the Senate, adding that it was a mere rumour.
“I don’t think there is anything like impeachment in Senate. There could be something like that in the House of Representatives, but I am not aware of such development in the Senate,” he said.
