Resignation Call: Senator Abaribe is different from the other rubbers in the Senate — Fani Kayode

Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe's resignation call and the stoning of President Muhammadu Buhari in line with the pledge he made while seeking votes from Nigerians prior to his victory in 2015, has sparked reaction from both the presidency and critics of the Buhari administration.



Abaribe has during Senate plenary yesterday Wednesday 29th, called on President Muhammadu Buhari and the ruling All Progressives Congress(APC) to resign over their inability to safeguard the lives and property of Nigerians since 2015.

He said Buhari and the APC had told Nigerians to stone them if they fail and that “it is now time to pick stones to stone them” in view of their obvious failure.


The Senate minority leader representing Abia-South Senatorial District, has been hailed by the opposition party, PDP, and a section of the public for summoning the courage to demand that the President resigns.

Former Aviation Minister, Fani Kayode was impressed by Abaribe's courage for distinguishing himself from the other 'rubbers' in the Senate.



He said, "I commend my friend, brother and in-law, Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe, for having the courage to call for the resignation of President Muhammadu Buhari.

"A President that refuses to protect his people from k*ller herdsmen and bl**dthirsty terrorists ought to not only resign but also bury his head in shame.




"The Presidency's swify but ill-fated response was characteristically ill-conceived, ill-prepared, incoherent, illogical, irrational, feeble, childish and utterly predictable.

"When they refer to the Leader of the Minority in the Senate as an "armchair critic" you know they are truly cursed.


"I really do wonder when Shehu Garbage will learn to stop talking rubbish? If anyone should be in jail it is not Abaribe but the calamitious affliction that he speaks for called Muhammadu Buhari."
