Aide Speaks On ‘Plot’ To Impeach Akpabio

Hon. Eseme Eyiboh, the Special Adviser to the Senate President on Media and Publicity, refuted claims on Saturday regarding an alleged plan to impeach Senate President Godswill Akpabio.

In a statement released in Abuja, Eyiboh clarified that despite reports circulated in certain sections of the media, claiming that unnamed Senators were plotting Akpabio’s impeachment, the Senate, under Akpabio’s leadership, remains steady and unaffected by what seems to be a coordinated media assault originating from sources external to the National Assembly.

Eyiboh maintained that these reports are entirely fabricated and infused with ill intent, the purpose of which Senators have yet to fathom.

He said: “The Senate has since moved on after the leadership contest. The plot to drag in Senators who initially did not support the emergence of the present leadership into a conspiracy that does not exist was uncharitable to the Senators.

“Senators are presently concluding their holidays in their constituencies and other places they have chosen to spend their time after the rigours of the inauguration and ministerial screening.

“All senators are also refreshing themselves ahead of resumption and suggestions that they are presently engaged in other subversive plots against the institution is rather uncharitable.

“It is especially uncharitable for those Senators who initially did not support the emergence of the leadership, but who have all unanimously endorsed the Senator Akpabio-led leadership.

“Continuing to link these Senators with one conspiracy or the other with barely disguised innuendo is rather unkind.

“We call on the media not to give in to the conspiratorial tales and to please not give damage to the reputations that they have built over time.”
