US House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Sunday she would
push ahead with efforts to remove President Donald Trump from
office during the final days of his administration after his
supporters’ violent attack on the Capitol.
Pelosi, the top Democrat in Congress, said there would be a
resolution in the House of Representatives on Monday calling for
the cabinet to remove Trump as unfit for office under the
constitution’s 25th amendment.
If Vice President Mike Pence does not agree, “we will proceed
with bringing impeachment legislation” to the floor of the House of
Representatives, Pelosi said.

Forge Ahead To Impeach Trump, Again
“In protecting our Constitution and our Democracy, we will act
with urgency, because this President represents an imminent threat
to both,” she said.

“As the days go by, the horror of the ongoing assault on our
democracy perpetrated by this President is intensified and so is
the immediate need for action.”
Trump was already impeached once by the Democratic-controlled
House — in December 2019 for pressuring the leader of Ukraine to
dig up political dirt on Joe Biden.
He was acquitted by the Republican-majority Senate.
Though time is running short, Democrats likely have the votes in
the House to impeach Trump again and could even draw some
Republican support for the move.
But they are unlikely to muster the two-thirds majority needed
to convict Trump in the 100-member Senate and remove him from
office.
Trump’s successor Joe Biden is due to be inaugurated on January
20.

On Sunday 10, 2021, NCDC confirmed 1,544 new infections of the
Coronavirus (COVID-19) in the country. This however is a wake-up
call to all Nigerian that Covid-19 is real.
In other to stem the spread, Mamora while playing host on
Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily programme today, said it would
be wise if NIN enrolment and registration is suspended.
“I don’t feel good looking at the picture where people are
gathered in multitude; it’s like a super-spreader event which we
don’t like. But I’m also aware that the relevant ministry which is
the communications and digital economy is looking at this.
“My understanding is that the whole process may be suspended so
as to reorder the whole process in terms of management of the crowd
because it was never intended that it would become a rowdy process
like that.
“We have a duty as government to ensure that people are
protected; we also have a duty to ensure people comply within the
limit of what is good for the society at large.”
