Impeachment: DSS, Police Take Over Cross River Assembly by nairalandkachy1: 1:56pm On May 22
Fierce looking officials of the Department of the State Services, DSS, the Dragon Squad and personnel of the Nigerian Police Force, have taken over the Cross River State Assembly complex.

They have barricaded every access to the complex as at the time of filling this report.

This is happening at a time when members of the Cross River State House of Assembly impeached their Speaker, Hon. Elvert Anyambem.

Vanguard learned that Hon Ayambem was impeached over alleged gross misconduct and administrative high handedness.

Checks by Vanguard revealed that the plot to remove Anyambem has been on for months as members have been expressing misgivings at his conduct and modus operandi.

As at Tuesday, over 20 members had signed up for his impeachment and the motion for his removal was moved on the floor of the House by member representing Calabar South 1, Hon. Effiong Ekarika and seconded by Charles Omang.

After impeaching him, the mace was taken away by the members.

However, members of the state assembly have moved to Transcorp Hotel where the new Speaker will emerge.

Is tinubu that really need this impeachment if Nigeria is a sane country.

In a sane country Buhari and tinubu would have resigned or be impeached after few months of woeful governance.

The type of job they like doing. If it is robbers/bandits/terrorists operating there now, it will take them ages before they show face. Shameless policemen.

Blitzerz:

This is not about poor leadership but about Nigerians themselves.

Everything in Nigeria that has any power is a fight to finish.
Estate election, old school asso election, Mechanic asso election, Doctors Asso election, even to choose a King na wahala.

Your resps are a perfect representation of the people themselves.
Remove everyone in govt today and replace them with people like you, the situation will either be the same or even worse.

Your leadership is a microcosm of your people.
You cannot have a very corrupt greedy population and then expect your leadership to be saints. Not possible.

As per Buhari you are right because his 8 years was a nightmare but for Tinubu with just a year in office that had totally collapsed bro no one can impeach him and he can not be impeach, he inherited mess and a dead country, ok.
