UMUAHIA—AN Abia State based Constitutional Lawyer and Human Rights
Activist, Dr. Anthony Agbazuere has warned the ruling All Progressive
Congress [APC] to allow the election of Senate President Dr. Olusola
Senator and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Yakubu Dogara
to stand and allow Nigeria to move forward.
Agbazuere, further
warned that threatening, harassment and intimidation of the National
Assembly leaders may threaten President Mohammadu Buhahi and
Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo’s positions.
“Any attempt by the APC to plot the impeachment of Saraki and Dogara will not only fail but will destroy the party.
“An
attempt to threaten them may lead to the impeachment of either
President Buhari or both Buhari and Osinbajo. The implications are
obvious”, Agbazuere warned.
According to him, “when persuasion fails, it must not be carried too far”, so as not to cause more harm to the polity.
“APC
must also stop threatening [Ike] Ekweremadu and must realize that his
position is a bitter pill which the party must swallow to survive.
“APC
must not forget that the same structure which brought Ekweremadu to
office also brought Saraki on board and this group/alliance is greater
in number”, he said.
He also reminded the ruling APC that “the
party has no powers in any law to choose for members of the National
Assembly those to lead them”.
Agbazuere who is immediate past
information commissioner in Abia State, also faulted the figure being
published in the media as the number months workers in the state are
being owed salary.
Accordinf to him, the core civil servants are
not owed more than three months while workers in parastatals are owed
about 5 months, insisting that no worker in the state is owed nine
months salary arrears.
“It is therefore wrong, mischievous and an
act of blackmail against the state and the past administration for any
one to make a generalization to say that Abia workers are owed 9 or 10
months’ salary arrears.
“It is my view and I so hold that the
picture of the salary issue of Abia State workers should not be
maliciously presented in the media.
I am confident that Governor
Okezie Ikpeazu has the zeal and sagacity to address the problems and I
urge Abians to give him maximum support, cooperation and understanding
as the state addresses the consequences of the drop in revenue”, the
former commissioner said.
