NEMA FRAUD: Lawmaker reveals Reps’ plot to impeach Osinbajo

Some members of the National Assembly are said to be currently collecting signatures to impeach Vice President Yemi Osinbajo for allegedly approving N5.8 billion illegally for the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA) in clear breach of extant laws.

This was made known by an All Progressives Congress (APC) House of Representatives member, Johnson Agbonayinma from Edo State.

The lawmaker stated this in a statement to newsmen in Abuja, claiming he had concrete evidence of the plot.

He said, “I want you to be aware that signatures are currently being collected by disgruntled lawmakers to impeach the Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo. The reason is because of the outcome of the NEMA investigations.

“For the records, the issues raised in the NEMA probe had to do with the misappropriation of funds by the Director-General, financial spending, procurement processes, among others.

“While I commend my colleagues in the discharge of their constitutional duties, I appeal to them to sheathe their swords, to continue to do the things that will promote the peace and unity of Nigeria.”
