Chairman, Senate Committee on Basic and Secondary Education, Senator Aliyu Magatakarda Wamakko, has dismissed a report (not by News Express) that a series of meetings were held in his residence to strategise on the impeachment proceedings of President Muhammadu Buhari.

Wamakko, who represents Sokoto North Senatorial District, dismissed the report as “false and malicious.”

He said in a statement issued Wednesday in Abuja, a copy of which was made available to News Express: “To set the records straight, a meeting was only held in my residence towards finding amicable solution to the frosty relationship between the Executive and Legislature.

“We have observed the growing disharmony between the two arms, and we resolved that finding amicable solution to the impasse will move the nation forward and give the president focus to pursue his Change Agenda.

“As a principled politician, I have no cause to scheme against the president and the party I campaigned for or the cause I believe in.

“Let me once again reiterate that we hold the president in high esteem, and we will do our best towards ensuring that there is cordial relationship and harmony between the two arms of government.”
