Sequel to the ongoing impeachment process of Adamawa State Governor,
Murtala Nyako, former Corps Marshall of the Federal Roads Safety Corps
(FRSC), General Anthony Hannaniya (retd), has asked President Goodluck
Jonathan not to save Nyako from being impeached by the state lawmakers.
Hannaniya who spoke with Saturday Sun, wondered how Nyako who accused Jonathan of sponsoring terrorism in the North East, would now turn to the president for assistance.
Recall that Nyako had in a memo to the Northern Governors Forum (NGF), accused Jonathan of being behind the Boko Haram insurgency in the North Eastern part of the country following the former’s defection along with four other governors from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The embattled governor had after attending the Wednesday inauguration of the steering committee of the safe school initiative at the presidential villa, Abuja, told State House correspondents that he was yet to seek President Jonathan’s intervention to save him from impeachment, but would do so when the need arises.
“It has not reached that crisis point. We have supported him all this time; he has supported us and in situations like these when Mr. President’s support is required, we will seek it,” Nyako had said.
But Hannaniya who hails from Adamawa and one of the stakeholders in the state said he was surprised that Nyako has suddenly turned around to beg Jonathan to save him after dragging the name of the president into the mud with his reckless accusations.
“I am surprised that Nyako is making a turn around. He who wrote so many unprintable things about Jonathan with regards to terrorists’ activities, is the same person who is now calling on Jonathan to intervene.
“We pray that Jonathan will stay clear of this issue and allow natural justice to take its course because Nyako does not deserve any mercy at all”, Hannaniya stated.
