EARSHOT The President Is Too Far Gone Last week, this column highlighted how Jonathan commits the crime of taking advantage of his office for personal gains. I reminded him that what he does is an impeachable offence. I also reminded him of President Richard Nixon of the United States. But I was wasting my time, as usual. It appears that our president is too far gone. In order to impeach Governor Murtala Nyako who belongs to the opposition APC, so as to give himself a rigging advantage in Adamawa State in the 2015 presidential election, he has given instructions to soldiers to surround the Adamawa chief judge’s residence as part of the intimidation to force his hand. Forget the governor’s political statement exonerating the president. We hear that two very senior military officers have already gone to threaten the chief judge to fall in line with the president’s wishes. Apart from “impunity”, another word that the president will need to study is “nemesis”. If there’s anyone who should be impeached and removed from office, it is the president himself.
