“The sitting governor had this bitter experience In 2006, therefore as responsible party men/women, we Should not have encouraged this because it is expected that we have grown pass this. where is democracy in this?

“Thank God the governor has condemned and disassociated himself from this ugly act displayed by our lawmakers, therefore, we are calling on the Inspector General of Police to immediately Investigate the security men used to perpetrate this illegal impeachment by 7 members. It is an embarrassment to the slogan of the party that projects fairness, equity and justice.

“That our Police are supposed to protect the entrenchment of democracy are being used as tools of mischief to truncate It.
