Brazil’s President, Dilma Rousseff, Impeached For Manipulating Budget by kahal29: 7:05pm On Aug 31, 2016
Brazil’s Senate has removed President Dilma Rousseff from office for manipulating the budget. Sixty-one Senators against 20 voted in favour of the impeachment Wednesday.

Ms Rousseff was suspended in May after the Senate voted to go ahead with the impeachment process. Brazil’s lawmakers accused her of re-assigning funds between budget items.

Her critics said she was trying to plug deficit holes in popular social programmes to boost her chances of being re-elected for a second term in October 2014, reports the BBC.

Ms Rousseff said she did nothing wrong, and called the attempt to remove her a coup d’etat. Her impeachment puts an end to 13 years in power of her Workers’ Party.

Acting President Michel Temer will serve out her term, which ends on 1 January 2019.

The reverse should be the case in Nigeria. President should suspend our senators for padding the budget.

if it is in Nigeria, you would hear Budget padding is not corruption, you would even hear Budget manipulation is not a crime.
May God save us in this country called Nigeria.

God save us from all this useless politicians we have in this country

If it was in Nigeria, the impeachment would have assumed an ethnic colouration.

Her people vs the envious people. Eventually, sanity is lost.
