The All Progressive Congress, APC, has called for the impeachment of Governor Ben Ayade of Cross Rivers state.
Mr. John Ochalla, the Chairman of APC in Cross Rivers state, in a press briefing said Mr. Ayade isn't fit to be a governor anymore because he can't guaranty the safety of citizens of the state.
He also condemned the governor's "lukewarm" attitude towards other important issues of the state.
“If the House of Assembly do not find any area for which to indict and consequently impeach Ayade, we wish to point to them that the governor has consistently stayed out of the state for a period longer than what the constitution prescribes, without duly transmitting the reins of governance to his deputy as prescribed by the relevant statutes.
“Also, he has acted contrary to the provisions laid out in the second schedule of the constitution by attempting to, among others, create a police force in the guise of Green Police, Homeland Security, which are in the exclusive preserve of the Federal Government.”
