Senate President, Godswill Akpabio Told To Immediately Resign Over Vacation Allowances To Senators

Timi Frank, a former assistant spokesperson for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), has called Godswill Akpabio, the current senate president, to quit immediately.

According to Leadership, Frank, a supporter of Atiku Abubakar, the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) presidential candidate, made this demand in a video message on Wednesday, August 9. By granting senators vacation allowances as the nation faces difficulties and hurdles economically, Frank charged Akpabio with damaging Nigeria’s democracy.

According to Timi Frank, a former assistant spokesperson for the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), he stated that;

“The show of shame that was demonstrated today on live national television where the senate under Akpabio was telling the whole world that they are going on vacation and the Clerk of the national assembly has paid money to every account of the Nigerian senators.

“This is the biggest joke we’ve seen in recent time (sic). “But that is the main reason why I am making it bold and very clear Senator Godswill Akpabio must immediately resign as the senate president.”

Recall that, the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio said that: “In order to enable all of us to enjoy our holidays, a token has been sent to our various accounts by the Clerk of the National Assembly.”

But some high authorities instantly informed the Senate President that he was being broadcast live on television and was speaking to journalists.

Akpabio quickly apologized for his remarks after realizing how important they were and said that prayers had been sent to their email accounts to ensure a safe journey and return.

In Godswill Akpabio Own Words, He stated That: “I withdraw that statement. In order to allow you to enjoy your holiday, the senate president has sent prayers to your mailboxes to assist you to go on a safe journey and return.”
