If Buhari should be impeached, then Osibanjo must go with him – Ohanaeze

The apex Igbo socio-political organization, the Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, has charged the National Assembly to impeach Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo alongside President Muhammadu Buhari.

The Igbo sociopolitical group has president Buhari and his vice president Osinbajo have failed in their primary responsibility to protect Nigerians.

MOUTHPIECE NGR recalls that Senators had issued threat president Buhari to impeach him over his inability to tackle insecurity in the country.

The Senate minority group has given president Buhari a six-week ultimatum to find solution to the insecurity in the country.

The group has said that the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Bola Tinubu, would benefit if the VP is exempted from the impeachment process.

The Secretary-General of the sociopolitical organization, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, has via a statement issued warning to the National Assembly that “if the impeachment threats served to President Buhari should be taken seriously, Vice President Yemi Osibanjo must be part of the impeachment process, as both of them have failed Nigerians.

“The exemption of the Vice President, from the impeachment threats, shows that APC Presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu stands to be a major beneficiary.”

“Ndigbo reminds the National Assembly that attempts to initiate the impeachment process against President Buhari without Vice President Osibanjo are an incomplete process and will create windows and loopholes for the Vice President to play an ethnic card for the West.

“Irrespective of running against Tinubu in the APC primaries, he will use the power of incumbency in favour of Bola Tinubu’s victory which is a contradiction with the body language of the Mr. President, who is likely reluctant to influence the 2023 elections for anyone but whoever Nigerians want at the polls.

“If Buhari should be impeached, then Osibanjo must go with him, both of them should be blamed for the rising insecurity challenges in the country.

“Ndigbo is in support of any Impeachment threats by the National Assembly, but it must serve as a wake-up call for the President and Vice President to be active with their duties, but if they continue to be onlookers and things goes awry, the National Assembly should not exonerate the Vice President for the notice of impeachment, Tinubu stands to benefit if only Buhari is impeached.”
