The Senate, has finally taken a stand on the rumour making the round that the Red Chamber is plotting to make Senate President, Bukola Saraki, Acting President.
The Senate Majority Chief Whip, Senator Olusola Adeyeye (Osun Central), who disclosed this in an article, faulted the claims that the Senate is plotting to impeach the Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo.
Adeyeye, in an article however lamented that the development is being misconstrued.
“Sadly, rumours are being peddled that Senators are being steered in a ploy to heighten a Saraki-Osinbajo conflict, to a point where the Acting President can be impeached, so that Saraki can take over as Acting President. I am not aware of such a ploy within the Senate,”
“More importantly, I dare say that were such a ploy to exist, it would woefully and precipitously fail. What matters therefore, is that Osinbajo must not be misled into siding with those talking as if their own views are the views of the Supreme Court of Nigeria”, Adeyeye added.
Adeyeye also added that, while he remains a firm supporter of President Muhammadu Buhari and Osinbajo, the voted in favour of Magu, at the screening exercise.
He however, stated that since Ibrahim Magu was rejected by the Senate, he cannot continue to function as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, boss.
“Pundits bellowing as if the ongoing saga is purely a legal matter, are wrong! Even if they are right, legal matters are not finalised by the opinions of the loudest Lawyers; they are concluded by the ruling of a court of competent jurisdiction! Celebrated Lawyers do not constitute a court! In any case, the issues at stake are as much matters of politics as they are of law. The earlier the frontline dramatis personae grasp and internalise this, the better”, Adeyeye said.
