Your Plot to Remove Deputy Senate President Will Fail - PDP Tells APC

Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.
The Peoples Democratic Party has alleged that there is a plot by the All Progressives Congress to unseat the Deputy Senate President, Ike Ekweremadu.
This allegation was made by PDP Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Abdullahi Jalo, during an interview with Punch.
Jalo said: “Those seeking to harass, intimidate or trying to remove Senator (Ike) Ekweremadu from the position of Deputy Senate President, are engaging in what we call an enterprise in futility because he was validly elected by his colleagues as stipulated in their rules.”
“On the allegation that the rules were illegally amended, the question Nigerians should ask is, is it possible for one man to change the rules one hour to the inauguration? Where was the amendment printed?”
Jalo also said that a recent police invitation extended to Ekweremadu showed the extent of the APC’s desperation to force Ekweremadu out of office.
The APC had earlier expressed the desire for Ekweremadu’s resignation after he emerged Deputy Senate President on June 9 despite being a member of the opposition party.
