Civil society advocacy group, the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA), has called for the impeachment of Senate President Godswill Akpabio over the holiday allowance comments he made while addressing lawmakers on Wednesday.
The former Akwa Ibom State governor had stirred controversy following a viral video in which he stated that the Clerk of the National Assembly had credited accounts of the Senators with tokens to enable them enjoy their holidays.
“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,” Akpabio had said.
