The Senate has dismissed a media report that some senators are planning to impeach the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, for allegedly being a puppet of President Bola Tinubu.
Newsflash Nigeria had earlier reported that a media report on Saturday claimed that some senators had already met in Saudi Arabia to finalize the moves, adding that Akpabio had neglected his colleagues and failed to meet the expectations of Nigerians.
However, in a statement on Saturday, the Senate Spokesman, Yemi Adaramodu, described the alleged plot to impeach Akpabio as a hoax and a fantasy.
The Senate spokesman stated that the Red Chamber is a united and harmonious family, stressing that the Senate under Akpabio has performed its legislative and constitutional duties diligently.
Adaramodu said: “We have just been alerted to a fabricated and malicious story in a section of the media, of purported and imaginary plots of leadership change in the Senate.
“The Nigerian Senate is a united and harmonious family. This fictitious tale is in the same category as the fake and false story of 100 million per legislator.
“It is pertinent to note that the 10th Senate, under the leadership of Senator Godswill Akpabio, has performed its legislative and constitutional duties diligently.
“Within a span of less than 60 legislative days, the Senate has passed bills and motions that have improved the lives of Nigerians. It has screened and confirmed Service Chiefs and Ministers, among others, apart from very essential oversight functions.
“We urge the mischief-makers, who operate undoubtedly outside the Senate, desperate to cause disharmony through media stunts and thus undermining Nigeria’s democracy, to exercise caution.
“The Senate should be allowed to breathe and focus on its national assignments so that the Nigerian project can move forward.
“The media, too, should be discerning not to be used as a tool by these peddlers of fake and bad news.”
