BREAKING: Senators pass vote of confidence on Akpabio

Senators on Thursday passed a vote of confidence on the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.

The vote of confidence on the Presiding Officer of the Senate came on the heels of reports that his colleagues have plans to impeach him.

Some online media platforms on Wednesday speculated that the presidency had drafted a large number of operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) into the National Assembly Complex to stop Senators from performing their constitutional responsibilities including a plot to remove Akpabio as the Senate President.

Akpabio had denied the report, saying the red chamber remained united.

The presidency, also in a statement, said there were no impeachment threats against Akpabio.
