Nasarawa Governor’s Impeachment: Chief Judge Inaugurates Probe Panel by elbinmanny(m): 8:47pm On Jul 25, 2014
The impeachment move against Governor Tanko Al-makura, of Nasarawa State is moving one step closer to realisation, as the state Chief Judge inaugurate the seven-man probe panel directed by the State Assembly.



The inauguration of the committee is coming less than 24 hours after the meeting between the Peoples Democratic Party lawmakers in the state and the President, where it was hoped that a peace solution was insight.

The lawmakers may well make a good threat to impeach Governor Al-makura for alleged gross misconduct and misappropriation of the Sure-P and UBEC funds which accrued to the state under his administration.

The  State House of Assembly members had on Wednesday said they would continue with the bid to impeach the governor and passed a motion directing the state Chief Judge to set up the seven-man probe panel.

The resolution and subsequent directive, however, did not go down well with the four All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers who protested at the session.

The APC lawmakers and spokesperson for Governor Al-makura, Abdulhamid Kwara, reacted to the development from the assembly.

The APC had accused the ruling PDP and the presidency of fuelling the impeachment to stifle opposition, an allegation the presidency had denied.

Some indigenes of the state had held a protest against the process last week in an effort to coerce the lawmakers to stop the impeachment.

Few days after the protest, the lawmakers vowed to go ahead with the impeachment process against Governor Al-makura.

The chairman, House Committee on Information of the State House of Assembly, Mr Mohammed Ibaku, told reporters in Abuja on Sunday that the lawmakers would pursue the impeachment notice served on the governor for alleged embezzlement of funds

Was the supporter of APC party expecting the president they hate so much to come to their rescue again? GEJ has been saving the supporter of APC party since 1804 but I doubt he'll rescue them this time.

supporter of APC party on the brink!

I know some APC members ll be like this is not going happen again, because the lawmakers met with the president.

But they are wrong, because just like the BH boys must ve learnt by now, WE DON'T NEGOCIATE WITH TERRORIST.

If d gov is found culpable, let him go in for it.It is high time we stopped defending d corrupt because of party affiliation.


Also, the President should steer clear of any act capable of truncating d Democratic process.


In fact,let d house be left a free hand to fix culpability where culpability is.

Transformation agenda of nigeria must not be felt in automotive, power... sectors alone. Political sect is currently feeling theirs. They have to relegate those politicians who are allergic to ''fresh air''.

Fresh Air till 2019.

if he is guilty , then let him face the music. This wave of impeachment may turn out to be the best thing to happen to our democracy. It means no more stealing with impunity. My prayer is that it should not be restricted to the north alone, we need it down south too.

I thought El-rufai criticised GEJ for attempting to save this governor's a*s. He forgets that too much of anything is bad. See how he has helped to sink the governor.

So I finally made frontpage. Who says hardwork don't pay, lol

And should we list the impeachable offences committed by GEJ? I have no problem with impeaching a corrupt Governor if found culpable. However GEJ has several allegation of corruption against him which he has not defended or proven wrong. All he told us was to "ask America". "America will know". Why don't we leave the APC Governors alone since its only America that can know? How come when the theft is not committed by him and his fellows, the EFCC and state assemble suddenly knows? The sad part of this thriller is that GEJ does not have the network or cojones to survive being prosecuted when he lives office. The only reason he has friends now is because of the power he wields as the president of the federal republic of Nigeria. Once he leaves the office, he will reverse to his fisherman status and get taught not to throw stone when living in a glass house. That explains his desperation to remain in power at all cost. My advise Oga GEJ, make friends even with your political opponents. That is how those before you have survived prosecution and escaped jail terms.
