The All Progressives Congress (APC) caucus in the Senate at the weekend, vowed to resist any attempt by the presiding officers of the National Assembly to initiate impeachment proceedings against President Muhammadu Buhari.
But the leadership of the National Assembly will be meeting today ahead of the emergency sitting.
Speaking on behalf of APC senators, former Senate Leader Ali Ndume told reporters in Abuja that the President did not breach the constitution by his action.
He said, “As members of the APC in the National Assembly, we will put the nation’s interest above any parochial or sectional consideration in dealing with the issue.
“It’s just that the Senate leadership wants to play to the gallery, otherwise, I don’t see the same leadership that accused the judiciary of meddling in its affairs now moving against the President for fighting corruption in that arm of government.”
