Where is the impeachment replied legislators?. No wonder they were in a hurry to impeach the people' Governor at the twilight of their departure. I have said it over and over that APC is made up of hooligans and pounds of flesh seekers. If care is not taken, they may be the destroyers of this hard earned democracy
ReplyDeleteAnonymous 433am. You are right. Where PDP graciously concede defeat where they are defeated, even where there are complaints? APC never concedes, even where it is obvious they can never win. I'm sure they will dispute the result in Bayelsa State!! Will Nigerians ever be able to vote out APC in 2019 if they don't perform? Time will tell.
