| Saraki, Atiku & Dogara. |
The attention of former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku
Abubakar was drawn to an illegal and undemocratic attempt by fascist
forces to break into the National Assembly for the purpose of furthering the
agenda to force a change in the Nigerian Senate’s leadership.
Atiku Abubakar completely
condemns this atrocity and calls on all those involved to put Nigeria first and
abandon this madness.
The Constitution of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria, as amended, guarantees both the independence of the Legislature
and Separation of Powers. Nigeria is a democracy not a military dictatorship
and we the people will never return to tyranny.
Atiku Abubakar calls on President
Muhammadu Buhari and acting President Yemi Osinbajo to stop hiding behind one
finger and live up to their responsibility of upholding the constitution and
law and order, which they swore to on May 29, 2015.
“We warned that if what occurred
in Benue last week was not checked on time, it would escalate to the federal
level. Today we are seeing that warning in play.”
The acting President, being
himself a Professor of Law, ought to know that setting such a precedent is an
invitation to anarchy.
There are better uses for our
security forces at this time than to lay siege to our citadels of democracy.
Our people are languishing in the midst of unprecedented insecurity and
nationwide killings. To thus deploy our security forces in this present manner
whilst Nigerians face these challenges is an abdication of responsibility to
say the least.
All Nigerians should be watchful
and mobilised to defend democracy. We must remember that ‘eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty’.
