How Buhari escaped impeachment for excessive borrowing – Lawmaker



The lawmaker representing Adamawa Southern Senatorial District in the National Assembly Senator, Yaroe Binos, has revealed that some lawmakers called for the impeachment of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), over his administration’s borrowing spree.

Binos, who said the lawmakers’ call for the impeachment of the President, came on the day the 2023 national appropriation bill of 21.82tn was passed by the National Assembly.

He also disclosed that the said lawmakers, whose names he did not mention, also sought Buhari’s removal as President over accumulation of over N22tn Central Bank loans in violations of CBN Act.

This was as the lawmaker also chided the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, for going into hiding, in order not to be called to account over the N22tn overdraft which the Presidency was seeking National Assembly to convert into a bond repayable in 40 years period.
