Plot to Impeach Tinubu's Ally Akpabio Thwarted in Nigerian Senate
In a recent development in Nigerian politics, there was a plot within the Senate to impeach Godswill Akpabio, a key ally of Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The attempt to unseat Akpabio, who currently serves as the 15th Senate President, was confirmed by Senator Orji Kalu but ultimately failed.

Akpabio, in response, described the claims as baseless and malicious.
