BREAKING: Court Orders National Assembly To Impeach Buhari
A Federal High Court sitting in Osogbo has granted an order of mandamus to compel the National Assembly to begin impeachment process of President Muhammadu Buhari, based on some alleged constitutional breaches.
According to Punch, Justice Maureen Onyetenu gave the ex parte order on Wednesday, following a motion filed before her by the Chairman, Nigeria Bar Association, Ilesa branch, Mr. Kanmi Ajibola; and a human rights activist, Mr. Suleiman Adeniyi.
About three months ago, the activist had written to the Senate and the House of Representatives to begin impeachment process against the President, based on the continuous killings and spending without approval of the lawmakers.
Meanwhile, the duo approached the court seeking an order to compel the National Assembly to begin the process following their refusal to impeach Buhari based on the activists’ letters.
However, they alleged that President Buhari did not possess a certificate to be qualified as a President and should be impeached based on this and other alleged impeachable offences.
Apparently, the judge, in her ruling, granted the order to compel the National Assembly to commence impeachment process against the President.
