The Senators from opposition parties, PDP,On Wednesday staged a walkout following a call to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari over insecurity in the country.
This followed a mild drama that played out during the plenary in the upper chamber of the National Assembly in Abuja, the nation’s capital.
The Minority Leader of the Senate, Senator Phillip Aduda, had raised a point of order asking the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, to discuss the security situation in the country and the impeachment of President Buhari.
But Senator Lawan, who presided over the plenary, declined the request of the minority leader, the senate minority leader, saying the point of order raised fell flat on its face.
The Minority Leader of the Senate, Phillip Aduda, has said the caucus is giving President Buhari a six-week ultimatum to address the security crisis in the country failing which they will commence impeachment proceedings against him.
