Rivers Saga: Impeach Jonathan Now – Accord Party

[Shola Sholaz]

THE National Leadership of the Accord Party (AP) has urged the National Assembly to immediately commence impeachment process against President Goodluck Jonathan, over what it described as the presidency's perceived role in the political crisis in Rivers State.
.
National Secretary of the Party, Dr Samsom Isibor, in a statement in Benin City yesterday, declared that the seeming intolerance of President Jonathan towards the opposition political parties is a danger to the nation's democracy.
.
While pointing out that the refusal of the President to accept the result of the Nigeria Governor's Forum, which Governor Rotimi Amaechi won after he polled 19 votes as against the 16 by Governor Jonah Jang, was an impeachable offence, the party said impeaching the President is the best thing for the nation in order not to distort this democracy.
.
According to the statement, "President Jonathan is supposed to be the custodian of our constitution and for him to accept 16 as against the popular 19 votes is unconstitutional.
