The Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria, HURIWA, has raised alarm over plans to destabilize the National Assembly following the disagreements between the newly elected leadership of the Senate and House of Representatives and the All Progressives Congress.
National Coordinator of HURIWA, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko and National Media Affairs Director Miss Zainab Yusuf raised the alarm yesterday in Abuja at a press briefing.
Onwubiko, who spoke on behalf of the organization, said they have it on good authority that finishing touches were put on the plan at the Abuja home of a high-profile APC leader from the South West and two senators from the North in attendance.
The HURIWA coordinator pointed out that if APC lawmakers emerged Speakers of the Benue and Plateau States Houses of Assembly where the PDP are in the majority, there is no reason why a Deputy Senate President of PDP extraction transparently and constitutionally elected by members of both parties, cannot be acceptable to a section of the APC leadership.
