LAGOS, Aug. 8 (GNA/Xinhua) –
Nigeria’s ruling party has alleged that some members of the National Assembly
were planning to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.

Ahmed Bola Tinubu, the National Leader
of All Progressives Congress (APC), who made this known in southern city of
Uyo, warned the plotters to drop their sinister move because it is not possible
for a lizard to wrestle an antelope.

He described what is happening in the
country now as a war between progressives and the conservatives.

Nigerians, the APC chieftain said,
gave opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) 16 years to rule but the party
failed.

He expressed happiness that oil-rich
state of Akwa Ibom had embraced the change of Buhari.

The Nigerian leader is currently in
the United Kingdom for a 10-day vacation.

Buhari has duly transmitted power to
the Acting President before traveling to London on vacation.

The siege to the National Assembly by
State Security Service (SSS) operatives has drawn a lot of reaction from
opposition parties and individuals.

This siege came amidst claims of
attempts to force Senate President Bukola Saraki out of office.

Scores of senators and members of the
House of Representatives were initially blocked from entering the National
Assembly premises, but later allowed to move in after threatening to force
their way in.
