Senator representing Adamawa North Senatorial District, Ishaku Elisha Abbo, has said President Muhammadu Buhari has failed in his fundamental responsibility to secure the lives and properties of Nigerians.

Abbo, who made this known while speaking with Channels TV, asserted that he fully supports the impeachment move against Buhari.

“I’m in full support of the impeachment move against the President.

“The Nigerian leader has failed in his fundamental responsibility to secure the lives and property of the people,” he said.

Nigerian opposition senators are pushing for President Buhari to face impeachment, less than a year before the end of his second term in office, over the country’s spreading security problems, the Senate minority leader said on Wednesday.

The Senators of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and some of the opposition walked out of a Senate plenary session over the refusal of the President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan to discuss Buhari’s impeachment and a notice served to the president.

The lawmakers moved to impeach Buhari due to the spate of insecurity roiling all parts of the country.

The Senators gave Buhari six weeks to resolve the insecurity crisis in the country or they would be forced to impeach him.
