The presidential aide further accused Senator Abaribe of conniving with Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the outlawed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) to rip Nigeria apart.

Onochie noted that the PDP lawmaker did not react when in 2019 his party's presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, said killings by herdsmen would continue if President Buhari won the election.

"Abaribe has tried with Nnamdi Kanu, to rip this nation apart and failed

When @atiku said there will be more herdsmen killing if @MBuhari was reelected, who said anything?

How many stones did Abaribe throw? Please throw the first stone. We are waiting," Onochie said.

Abaribe made the demand on Wednesday, January 29, when the lawmakers were debating national security challenges.

The PDP lawmaker during the debate said the president had done little to address the security challenges in Nigeria.

“…If you want to treat an issue, you go to the head. We did not appoint the IG or the security chiefs. We will go to the president and ask him to resign,” the lawmaker said.
