Foreign Affairs › Trump Impeachment Vote To Be Forced On The Floor Of The US House Of Rep by Itulah(op): 11:38am On Dec 06, 2017

A vote to impeach President Donald Trump will happen on the House of Representatives floor on Wednesday, a Democrat has vowed.

Rep. Al Green of Texas in a House speech Tuesday said he would bring articles of impeachment against Trump and force a vote the following day, after three prominent Democrats asked to meet with him to discuss the matter.

“I will tell them that impeachment is not about Democrats, that it’s not about Republicans. I will tell them that it is about democracy,” Green said of the Democrats he plans to meet with in his office. “It is about government of the people, by the people, for the people. I will tell them it is about the republic, it is about what (Benjamin) Franklin said, ‘We have a republic if we can keep it.’

“I refuse to sit on the sidelines while the world is considering one of the greatest issues of our time."

The impeachment vote will likely only be procedural.

Green last week said that he would bring a vote this week but had not given a specific date.

The Texas Democrat previously called Trump “the chief inciter of racism, bigotry, hatred, xenophobia, sexism, ethnocentrism.” Impeachment articles he introduced in October state that Trump “brought disrepute on the presidency” and “undermined the integrity of his office” but did not make criminal accusations.

It is highly unlikely that the majority of House representatives will vote to impeach Trump, as is needed to pass the matter to the Senate for a two-thirds vote that would remove the president. That’s because Republicans control the House and Democrats are split, with many believing it is premature to discuss impeachment as special counsel Robert Mueller investigates possible collusion between the Trump campaign and Russia in the 2016 election.

Scrutiny on Trump has mounted since his former national security adviser Michael Flynn pleaded guilty Friday to lying to the FBI and agreed to cooperate with Mueller's probe. Trump has repeatedly denied any collusion with Russia.

Green seemingly is aware that the odds are against his effort.

“I will tell them that if a man does not keep pace with his companion, perhaps he hears a different drummer,” Green said on Tuesday. “Let him step to the music he hears.”

Besides Green, five other House Democrats introduced impeachment articles last month. The sponsors are Reps. Steve Cohen of Tennessee, Adriano Espaillat of New York, Marcia Fudge of Ohio, Luis Gutierrez of Illinois and John Yarmuth of Kentucky.

Politics › International Body Rates Nigeria Police The Worst Globally by Itulah(op): 10:34am On Nov 12, 2017
.We are rated the best in UN peace-keeping –Spokesman

Adelani Adepegba, Abuja

The World Internal Security and Police Index International has rated the Nigeria Police Force as the worst police organisation in the world.

WISPI, in its 2016 report, described the NPF as the worst globally in terms of its ability to handle internal security challenges.


The report showed that Singapore performed best on the index, followed by Finland, and then Denmark.

The report was released by the International Police Science Association and the Institute for Economics and Peace based on the assessment of 127 countries.

The indices used in the assessment include capacity, process, legitimacy and outcomes, which the group said was meant to measure the ability of the security agency in a country to respond to internal security challenges, both now and in future.

WISPI in its report said the NPF performed worst on all the four parameters with a score of 0.255, ranking 127 below Democratic Republic of Congo, Kenya, Uganda and Pakistan.


It read, “There are 219 police officers for every 100,000 Nigerians, well below both the index median of 300, and the sub-Saharan Africa region average of 268.

“This limits the capacity of the Force to measure up to its law and order mandate.

“In terms of process, legitimacy and outcomes, the story is not different; which makes the Force to fall short of the required standards.”

But the Police dismissed the report, describing it as “misleading and lacking in empirical evidence;” while stressing that WISPI did not take into cognisance the significant improvement in the areas of capacity building, training and re-training of the personnel of the Force.

The Force spokesperson, Jimoh Moshood, in a statement said the NPF had been rated the best in United Nations peace-keeping operations in the world, insisting that the Force cannot be the worst under any known parameters.

It said, “Currently, the Nigeria Police Force is one of the only two African delegates representing the whole of African continent on the executive committee of Interpol, a position the Force attained based on high performance, merit and sustained good track records.”
