Disturbed by the growing impunity in the country, 130 members of the House of Representatives yesterday launched a battle to remove President Goodluck Jonathan. They signed an impeachment notice register.

But Speaker Aminu Tambuwal asked  his colleagues to consider the barricade of the National Assembly by the police and security agents as part of the price to pay for a sustainable democracy.

Members at the Executive Session of the House, refused to table the impunity of the police to “avoid the situation degenerating into a  major crisis.”

Investigation showed that members were angry by the invasion of the National Assembly by the police and security agents.

They alleged that the invasion was backed by the Presidency.

They alleged that President Jonathan met secretly with on Wednesday night with Senate President David Mark and Deputy Speaker Emeka Ihedioha on the shape of yesterday’s House sitting.

Alleging executive recklessness, interference and abuse of police,  the members opted to collate signatures for an impeachment notice against President Jonathan.
