– A federal lawmaker, Linus Okorie, claims President Buhari is plotting the downfall Yakubu Dogara and other members of the House of Reps

– He said the plot to remove Dogara as speaker of the House would definitely fail

– The lawmaker criticised the SSS and other government agencies for sealing some offices in the National Assembly

Linus Okorie, a member of the House of Representatives from Ebonyi state, has accused the President Muhammadu Buhari-led government of plotting to remove the speaker of the House, Yakubu Dogara and the entire house leadership.

The lawmaker claimed the presidency was plotting to do this by capitalizing on the allegations raised by Jibrin Abdulmumin, the former chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Appropriations, who was sacked recently.

In a statement issued on Monday, August 1, Okorie, who declared his loyalty to Dogara, said the plot would fail as the speaker and other members of the house had not done anything illegal, Premium Times reports.


The Peoples Democratic Party lawmaker and a two term member of the House wondered why the lawmakers were being branded corrupt.


He explained that the house has the constitutional powers to “amend, reduce from or add to” the budget estimates brought forward by the executive and that that was what the lawmakers did.

According to him, the constituency projects were never implemented by the legislatures but by the executive arm and wondered why the lawmakers were being branded corrupt.

Okorie said should the attempt to change the leadership of the house succeed and a new leadership forced on it, the President Buhari-led government would have completely “unitarized” Nigeria’s democracy and completed the push for a repressive and totalitarian brand of “democracy” hitherto unknown to literature.

The lawmaker also faulted the State Security Services and other government agencies for sealing some offices in the National Assembly.

There had been accusations and counter accusation over budget padding between Jibrin and the leadership of the house.

Jibrin, after he was removed from his position as chairman of the House of Representatives Appropriation Committee, released statements accusing the Dogara and some other principal officers of budget padding and corruption.

According to sources, he submitted damning evidence to the DSS which linked Dogara, his deputy, Yusuf Lasun; the House Whip, Alhassan Doguwa, and the Minority Leader, Leo Ogor to the padding the budget.

Buhari has reportedly ordered the Department of State Services (DSS) and the police to carry out a full investigation into the alleged the N480bn budget padding.

Is this hate for Buhari not turning to insanity already?

Igbos are brave people

Unlike afonjas that keep quiet for Buhari to Harrass fayose, koro and ffk

modath:

Buhari asked Dogara to make Jibrin Appropriations chair in appreciation of his assistance..

Buhari asked Dogara and Jibrin to pad budget...

Buhari sent the spirit of Edi & Asasi to Dogara and made him relieve Jibrin of his position despite the rotten beans they cooked & covered up......

Buhari finally transmuted into Jibrin's body who has made it his new found mission to destroy his Dogara.


Linus Okorie's brain has been taken over by worms, he is a disgrace to Dora Akunyili, Charles Soludo & Emeka Anyaoku...

I believe the WHO and UN need to research into the Igbo ability to nurture hate and bequeath/inherit hate.

Once the hate can be eradicate as a disease from the Igbo patient, the world would have managed to eradicate hate as a cause of conflict world wide.

An Igbo man is ready to separate himself from himself just to enable him hate himself as reaction to an enemy doing him any good.

seunmsg:
What's the business of this Igbo man in the ongoing fight between two Hausa men? Must Igbo people always support anything tainted with corruption? Nawa o.

Actually, you and your brothers need the mixture to cure the evil spirit that keeps pushing you to support anything tainted with corruption.

StOla:


Brave like Ojukwu the runaway rebel leader, or Director Kanu with a false identity to enter into the country and book hotel room with a woman to keep him company?

Brave like the numerous Igbo legislators, governors and politicians who have never for once declared their support for a separate country called Biafra, or moved a motion to even kick-start the birth of the secessionist state.
