BREAKING: APC Reps Disown Senator Over Buhari’s Impeachment Allegation
Rep members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have disowned Senator Abu Ibrahim in his allegation that Speaker Yakubu Dogara was part of a plot to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.
Senator Ibrahim from Katsina State had on Wednesday called for the sacking of both the Speaker and Senate President, Bukola Saraki, from the APC, saying they can’t be trusted any longer.

He had said, “Saraki and Dogara should resign today or the APC should send them away. They are no longer APC members. The only reason why Saraki and Dogara have not left the APC is that they know that if they leave they will lose their seats.
“But we will force them to leave. Left to me, I will recommend to APC to expel them. They are no longer needed in the party. We will be cured of cancer if they leave. Me as Abu Ibrahim, I am asking Saraki and Dogara to leave APC today. I will meet Oshiomhole (Adams) to expel them. Let them leave APC, Saraki and Dogara should leave APC today.”
The members at a press briefing on Thursday said that the allegation was a figment of Senator Ibrahim’s imagination.
Pledging their unalloyed support to the reelection bid of President Buhari, the members who converged under the aegis of Parliamentary Support Group, PSG, led by Hon. Abdulmumuni Jubril, said that Speaker Dogara was with them in the movement. “That’s just his personal opinion. That’s purely a Senate issue”, Hon. Jubril said.
