he
Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) has heaped the blame for the ongoing
crisis in Rivers State on President Goodluck Jonathan and asked the
National Assembly to immediately commence impeachment proceedings
against him, for failing to live up to his oath of office to uphold the
Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
In a statement issued in Lagos on Wednesday by its National Publicity Secretary, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, the party said by Jonathan’s abhorrence of the rule of law and majority rule, the latest indication of which is his unmistakable support for a group of renegade lawmakers who are fomenting trouble in Rivers State, the President has become a clear and present danger to the country’s democracy, and must be shown the way out in accordance with the Constitution.

”Under
President Jonathan’s watch and with his tacit support, a few lawmakers
dictated to majority of the members of the Ogun State House of Assembly,
which was locked for a long time. Under President Jonathan’s watch, the
Nigerian Governors’ Forum was sabotaged by his minions who declared a
Governor with 16 votes a winner over the one who scored 19 votes, in a
injurious blow to the concept of democracy.
”And under his watch, five lawmakers – out of 32 – have become the majority and, simply because they have the backing of the presidency, are now being given police protection to disrupt the proceedings of the House. As we write, Rivers state has been taken over by current and former militants who have been unleashed to destabilize the state and cause a breakdown of law and order, to pave the way for the imposition of a State of Emergency.
