According to Rep. Mohammed Tahir Monguno, President Goodluck Jonathan is to be served with impeachment notice when the House of Representatives reconvene on Wednesday.Senators and members of the House of Representatives had commenced collecting signatures for the removal of the president after the November 20 security siege on the National Assembly. During the siege, the speaker of the House Aminu Waziri Tambuwal and other lawmakers were teargased by the
police.
House members began collecting signatures that same day
while senators followed suit two days after. And already, 200 members and about
60 senators were said to have thrown their weight behind moves to oust the president.Monguno, a former Attorney General of Borno State told
Sunday Trustthat he was one of the 200 members who signed the impeachment
motion on November 20, saying, “some newspapers published names of those who signed the motion but my name was conspicuously omitted.”
Arguing that president Jonathan had no reason to remain in office anymore
having failed to protect Nigerians against Boko Haram insurgents, Monguno said:“The federal government led by President Goodluck Jonathan
has woefully failed to discharge these responsibilities. The government which
is solely responsible for the security of the people has failed to protect the
lives and property of my constituents.
