Hey, you cannot quote Sub-Section 68(1)(a)-(h) without quoting Sub-Section 68(2) which gives action/power to 68(1)(a)-(h);



Now according to 68(2), it is NOT you, me, the police, the President that has the constitutional power to give effect to subsection 68(1), it is the SPEAKER (in the case of HOA) that has the constitutional right to give effect provided there is a SATISFACTORY EVIDENCE.

subsection 68(1) is not automatic.

The constitution is clear.

I no go "higher institution". Is there a law that makes that a crime?

jamesandrew:




I keep seeing this comparison with Mimiko. Get this straight: Mimiko is a governor and Tambuwal is a member of the House of Reps, these are different positions! The Constitution provides specifically that a member of the House of Reps loses his seat if he becomes a member of another political party. (Section 68(g) of the 1999 Constitution).This section is crystal clear. Stop calling Mimiko who is a governor. The section does not apply to governors!

chukwudi44:


Lol which NASS members? Abeg no make me laugh. If Tambuwal wants to test ife he still has powers let he try summoning the IGP and see if he will honour him.

Juicypunny:


SEE THIS [b]UGLY YORUBA [/b]IDIAT TALKING.

FOOLISH COW.

Whitehorse:


Thank you sir for that.

Yes, in that respect, Tambuwal should/would not preside over such a session right? He can not be judge and jury over his own case.

If Tambuwal was an honest man, with integrity, he would have tabled his defection at the begin of discussing in the HOR, stepped aside to allow his deputy to head that session and let the house decide, but he was not honest, lacked integrity and was selfish, like all the politicians we have in Nigeria...

This is the result of his duplicity and PDP determination (and desperation) not to be used and dumped.

ZACHIE:


Is Mimiko still Governor of Ondo State? YES.

Warped minds.

Pennyways:
send him a letter to do what? send him a letter telling him that the constitution of the federal republic of Nigeria is no longer effective, or telling him he (Tambuwal) is superior over the national constitution?

what was the letter all about?

dustydee:


What is wrong is wrong. Stop promoting this type of behaviour.

Sweetlemon:


I just knew this! I knew some pathetic GEJ supporters will still find a way of blaming his "enemies" for this.

ionsman:

Guess you are unaware that the president sent the senate present and tambuwal a letter concerning the extension of the emergency rule in the affected states.That was the reason for today's sitting.
So my questions is,if the president doesn't see him as the speaker,why did he send him the letter?

smileandlove:
. Sir your assertion is wrong, the house elects for its self a speaker ie (1st among equals) and the speaker is from the house and NOT any political party. In other words, the members elects who they want irrespective of the party. But what happens is that the party that has the majority will always win, because all members will vote one person.

bitterpenis:
Anything goes in the government to cling to power by any means necessary.... riots would surely follow if true Tambuwal is denied entry into the complex, or removed as the speaker of the national assembly
