Senators on Thursday passed a vote of confidence on the Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
This is coming in the wake of reports that his colleagues have plans to impeach him.
Reports made the rounds on Wednesday that the presidency had drafted a large number of operatives of the Department of State Services, DSS, into the National Assembly Complex to stop Senators from performing their constitutional responsibilities including a plot to remove Akpabio as the Senate President.
Akpabio, had, however, denied the report, stressing that the senate remained united.
In a statement, the presidency also said there were no impeachment threats against Akpabio.
