Below is a statement from the PDP Prayer Network signed by its leader, Emmanuel Chukwu;
Our attention has been drawn to the plots by some disgruntled Senators working in connivance with the Presidency to effect leadership change in the National Assembly.
Their plan is to convene emergency seating to impeach the Senate President, Senator Bukola Saraki and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rt. Hon. Yakubu Dogara using the approval of fund for the Independent National Electoral Commission as a guise.
We are therefore alerting the international community and other friends and lovers of democracy to rise in defence of the National Assembly as the forces against our democracy are planning to forcefully re-open the third arm of government when lawmakers are on their annual leave.
We are also warning that any forceful reconvening of the House outside the September 25 slated by the Chairman of the National Assembly would be met with fierce resistance.
Enough is enough to the executive recklessness.
