The presidency has described as a mere showing off, the threat by some senators on Wednesday to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari.
The senators, who are members of opposition parties, had staged a walkout from the plenary of the Senate, issuing Buhari a six-week ultimatum to either tackle the raging insecurity in the country or be impeached.
However, reacting to the development when he featured on Channels Television’s Politics Today, the President’s spokesman, Femi Adesina, said the senators were just playing to the gallery.
Adesina said, “I think it was just bravado, and sadly, security is not something you subject to bravado.
“You don’t begin to issue flippant ultimatums in something that is a matter of life and death.
“Those who spoke today are the minority of minorities, they will have their say as is needful in a democracy but it will not go beyond that.”
