He was removed in the early hours of Thursday by the lawmakers from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) who were escorted into the chambers amidst tight security.

Members of the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) were, however, prevented from entering the Assembly complex.

Good for him. Imaging buying a bullet proof vehicle for #300m instead of the actual market price of #80-100m.
Misappropriation of the house funds and gross anti party activities.
Let him go and face EFCC to go and clear himself before them. He already have a partition against him at the efcc.
Such a young boy engaged in a lot of controversies.
Anyway, I see a lot of corruption going on with this legislative autonomy.
On a normal day,his supposed to resigned for proper investigation and audit to be done.
Some people will now bring religion, tribalism, partisanship in a clear case of gross misappropriation and corruption.

It looks more of a coup. How will 8⁄24 members impeach the speaker as early as 6a.m?

That is their own business. Since It has nothing to do with putting food on the table for an ordinary man like me, then I am less concerned.

Why is APC fully in support of acts of terrorism orchestrated by the Fulani herdsmen? To the extent that they don't hide it again.

The impeached speaker was good for them before, but immediately he spoke against the terrorist Fulani herdsmen, he was impeached.

They once loved Ortom for turning blind eyes to the plight of his people, but immediately he spoke against what the terrorists did at Agatu, they started demonizing him till date.

APC is strictly founded on the support of Fulani terrorism. Even their zombies find it extremely hard to speak against that.

This is civilian own type of COUP !

But changing administration is not good for the survival of democracy in Nigeria.

It creates room for political instability.

We all can recalled the set back military government had caused Nigeria starting from 1966 when Major Nzeogwu and his comrade overthrew the then Prime Minister of Nigeria setting the stage for political crisis in Nigeria.

The military coup of 1966 led to the death of Sarduana, Sir Ahmadu Bello, Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa, Chief Okotie Eboh ( then finance minister ) who happens to come from Delta state in the present Niger delta region.

Others who died include Chief Ladoke Akintola of Western Nigeria.

What a disgrace... This means just 30 senators can impeach Buhari... The fools didn't even make quorum... What is wrong with this politicians for God's sake.. Why can they get the required 16 to impeach... I will be disappointed if Buhari allows this to fly. Last time this happened was under ObJ.
