The Senate President, Dr Bukola Saraki, has said that he is not afraid of any impeachment threats, according to Channels Television.

Saraki made this known on Sunday when he visited Minna, the Niger State capital. He also stated that those agitating for the resumption of the Senate are only doing it for their selfish political interest, adding that the postponement in the resumption of the National Assembly had nothing to do with him but was a matter of constitutional provisions.


Speaking further, the Senate President criticised those parading themselves as political leaders in Kwara State as seasonal politicians who have no stability in their political pursuit.

His comments come after several calls have been made by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), for him to resign his position as Senate President or face impeachment.

The calls follow his defection from the APC to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
