Buhari at a close door session on Wednesday,
Senator Hamma Misau, representing Bauchi Central
Senatorial District has criticized his Colleagues for
leaking top secrets to journalists.
Moving a motion through Order 43 of the Senate,
2015 Standing Rules, he said it was a tradition of
the Senate that whatever was discussed at a
closed-door session must be held back from the
prying eyes of journalists, while expressing
disappointment that after such session, some
Senators would reveal the whole deliberations to
journalists.
While displaying copies of some National Dailies,
and reading through headlines and sub titles, the
pro Saraki Senator advised that lawmaker should
have been mature enough to hold confidential
issues close to their chest.
“Mr. President, Distinguished Colleagues, I am
holding some copies of the National Dailies here
with headlines, ‘Senate plots Impeachment of
President Buhari. Why did some of our colleagues
disclose issues at close door?, ” he asked.
Misau who did not deny the impeachment plot
questioned why some dailies said himself and two
others were those insisting that Buhari must be
impeached.
In his respnse, the Senate President referred the
matter to Committee on Ethics, Privileges and
Public Petitions.
