More senators of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) are  supporting the move  to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari over the worsening security situation in the country.

Senator Adamu Bulkachuwa, has joined Senator Elisha Abbo to agree with opposition lawmakers on the need to impeach the President for his failure to protect lives and property of Nigerians

Bulkachuwa, representing Bauchi North in the National Assembly, had in a media interaction noted that the federal lawmakers tried in many ways to assist President Buhari to tackle insecurity in the country but the president failed. He added that the federal lawmakers tried to engage service chiefs and other security personnel on finding solutions to the insecurity ravaging the country but no success. He was of the view that only one thing remained to done, which perhaps, is to impeach the president.

According to Bulkachuwa, “We in the legislature, we have tried all within our power, except one thing.

“We also tried to engage service chiefs and other security personnel to find out what their problems are and when they tell us, we tried to find solutions and also advise the President accordingly.

“Even the financial situation in the country is not improving. We are just one arm of government and are limited in the execution of proposals and actual enforcement of laws.

“So, what we can do is remind the executive that we have a constitutional responsibility to pull your ears by way of notice of impeachment and give you chance to see that you care.”

Bulkachuwa stated that the threat to impeach President Buhari is the last and necessary option left for the lawmakers.

The APC senator narrated: “On that day, the Senate went into closed session and it was at the closed session that these issues were discussed and without divulging so much, I can tell you that the majority of senators felt there was a need to initiate that action.

“I said it was the majority. It wasn’t a 100 percent unanimous agreement per se, but the majority supported it.”

Meanwhile, the Senate has gone on recess probably calm the apprehension in the National Assembly and evade the impeachment of the President.
