The governor of Nasarawa state, Governor Abdullahi Sule, says himself and other governors elected on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are not losing sleep over the impe@chment process initiated against Rivers state governor, Siminalayi Fubara, whoweeks back defected to their party.
In a chat with Channels TV on Thursday, January 29, Governor Sule was asked if himself and other APC governors were anxious about the plot to remove Fubara, he responded saying the process was strictly guided by the law.
“I’m not worried because I think it’s an issue of the court. I am not worried about anybody impeaching anyone. You don’t just wake up and impeach somebody without going through the due process. Of course, whatever happens to any of our colleagues, we are worried, but we are not so worried to the point of saying he [Fubara] is going to be impeached.”
Sule noted that court rulings and actions by the chief judge were already addressing the matter.
“From all indications, actions are being taken. Courts are taking decisions. The chief judge is taking a position on that. So, for that reason, we are not worried”he said
Hi comment comes amidst latest attempts by the Rivers state House of Assembly to impeach Governor Fubara over allegations of gross misconduct. The process has however been stalled by a ruling from the State High Court.
