Senator Aliyu Wamakko, the senator representing Sokoto North Senatorial District, has denied reports that his colleagues met in his house to deliberate on how to commence impeachment proceedings against President Muhammadu Buhari.
In a statement issued by the senator on Wednesday in response to reports alleging that he hosted different meetings of agrieved members of the senate that were looking for ways to tackle the presidency over the ongoing trial of Senate President Bukola Saraki for forgery of the standing order of the red chamber.
Wamakko said, “To set the records straight, a meeting was only held in my residence towards finding amicable solution to the frosty relationship between the Executive and Legislature.
“We have observed the growing disharmony between the two arms, and we resolved that finding amicable solution to the impasse will move the nation forward and give the president focus to pursue his Change Agenda.
“As a principled politician, I have no cause to scheme against the president and the party I campaigned for or the cause I believe in.
“Let me once again reiterate that we hold the president in high esteem, and we will do our best towards ensuring that there is cordial relationship and harmony between the two arms of government,”
