April 04, (THEWILL) – The House of Representatives, on Tuesday, condemned calls for an interim government in Nigeria after May 29, 2023.
The lawmakers feared that such calls are capable of truncating the country’s young democracy and causing anarchy across the country.
The condemnation followed a motion of urgent national importance raised by a member, Unyime Idem, representing Akwa Ibom State, who drew the attention of the House to the statement issued by the Department of State Services (DSS), warning of plots to install an interim government after the outcome of the presidential election.
The House urged the security agencies to be on alert and warned aggrieved parties to await the outcome of litigations before the court.
Hon. Kuye, who is currently representing Shomolu Federal Constituency 1, accused the former President, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo, of culpability for calling for the cancellation of the results of the presidential election.
AYO ESAN, has been actively reporting and analyzing political events for different newspapers for over 18 years. He has also successfully covered national and state elections in Nigeria since the inception of this democracy in 1999.
