Sam Anyanwu, the senator
representing Imo east has condemned the invasion of the residences of the
Senate President, Bukola Saraki, and Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.
The Police on Tuesday morning
blocked the Senate President, Bukola Saraki‘s convoy at Lake Chad junction in
Abuja.
However, this did not stop Saraki
from presiding over Tuesday plenary which saw 15 Senators dumping the All
Progressives Congress, APC to Peoples Democratic Party,PDP.
Speaking after the plenary on
Tuesday, Anyanwu said the invasion of both residences had strengthened his
faith in both Senate leaders.
“I want to say in the midst of
these intimidation that my confidence in the Senate President, Bukola Saraki
and Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu is even stronger,” he said.
Also, Senator Emmanuel Bwacha
representing Taraba South, while reacting expressed worries about the
development, urging security agencies to stop threatening democracy
He noted that the issue at hand
is threatening the unity of the country.
“I want to advise that our
security operatives should understand that they are expected to protect us all
and that threats such as this will not help matters.
“I am deeply worried about this
strange development that not only threatens our democracy but the unity of this
country. This matter goes beyond political parties, it is not about the
survival of our democracy.”
