Akpabio has backing of all senators, there’s no plot to impeach him— Aide

 Eseme Eyiboh, special adviser on media to Senate President
Godswill Akpabio, says the upper legislative chamber is stable under his
principal’s leadership.

 

Eyiboh said this in reaction to reports indicating that some
senators were working to impeach Akpabio.

 

The senate has been on its annual recess and will resume on
September 26.

 

In a statement on Saturday, the media adviser said the
alleged plot is “complete imagination”, adding that the senate has moved past
the tension of the competitive election for the senate presidency.

 

 “Senators are
presently concluding their holidays in their constituencies and other places
they have chosen to spend their time after the rigours of the inauguration and
ministerial screening and other constructive engagements,” he said.

 

“All senators are also refreshing themselves ahead of the
resumption, therefore, any suggestions that they are presently engaged in other
subversive plots against the institution is rather uncharitable.

 

“It is mostly uncharitable for those senators who initially
did not support the emergence of the leadership but who have all unanimously
endorsed the Senator Akpabio-led leadership.

 

 “Continuing to link
these senators with needless conspiracy with barely disguised innuendo is
rather unkind.”

 

Eyiboh said the media should not give in to “conspiratorial
tales” and reports that could cause damage.
