Buhari don't care because he knows that it will not happen in Nigeria. worse is that he will pay some senators and representative to stop the process of impeachment |

Your list shows that really its impossible to impeach an African president, i didnt see any African president on your list, if my memories serves me right the only African president that has been impeached was Zuma of South Africa. Infact he even resigned before the impeachment. OP the system and the kind of politics we play in Nigeria makes it difficult for a president to be impeached. Look if president steps down security in national assembly for a day no member will near there as a result of his live , if Omo-Agege could step down few security personel for just 10minutes and had his way then imagine when a president is involved. Ethnicity, religion and tribal issues will set in whenever the idea is even muted. 1 Like |
