For the people that are going frenzy because of Tambuwal defection, this is the release from House of Representatives declaring that Tambuwal remains the Speaker;

"The House of Representatives yesterday reacted to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP’s, position that the Speaker, Hon. Aminu Tambuwal, should resign following his defection to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The House said that there were no bases for that since Tambuwal was elected as Speaker by his colleagues.

It explained that the Speakership of the House, or any other national elective position, belongs to Nigerians and not the political platforms upon which such leaders emerge.

A statement by the Deputy Chairman, House Committee on Media and Public Affairs Matters, Hon. Victor Afam Ogene, stated that nobody could regulate the operation and procedure of the House from outside.

He expressed concern that less than 24 hours after Tambuwal’s defection, individuals, party chieftains and groups had gone on frenzy, dishing out varied interpretations to the decision.

He said: “Many of these commentators, rather than correctly stating what the true position of the law and the House rules are, take delight in advertising ignorance of both with some even advocating a recourse to anarchy as a way of achieving what they imagine ought to be the ‘solution’ to the issue.

“Following several inquiries by journalists and some members of the public, it is easy to narrow the concerns to two key issues. One, whether Speaker Tambuwal ought to vacate his seat as representative of Kebbe/ Tambuwal Federal Constituency, Sokoto State, by virtue of Section 68 (1) (g), of the 1999 Nigerian Constitution, as amended; and two, if he shouldn’t step down as Speaker, having defected from the majority party in the House to a minority platform.”

The lawmaker also explained that on the first issue, it was common knowledge that following the defection of 37 members of the House in December 2013 from the PDP to APC, there had been multiple court cases on the matter, rendering it subjudice to discuss any likely outcome.

He, however, advised Nigerians to await final judicial pronouncement on the issue of defection, which had afflicted virtually all political parties.

Citing the case of Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, who as a sitting Vice- President moved to another political party, Ogene stated the vicepresident did not get judicial reprobation for the act.

He added that the clear provisions of Section 50(1) (b) of the Nigerian Constitution easily settle the worries regarding the continued Speakership of Tambuwal.

Quoting the law, he said: “There shall be a Speaker and Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves.

“It would, therefore, amount to an affront on members’ privilege to question their constitutionallyguaranteed right to freely elect their leader.

“Additionally, Order 1 Rule 1 (2) of the Standing Orders of the House of Representatives states: “In all cases not provided for hereinafter, or by sectional or other orders, precedents or practices of the House, the House shall by resolution regulate its procedure.

“It is in the light of the foregoing that the House wishes to appeal to those who seek to “regulate its procedure” from outside its hallowed chambers to have a rethink, as the nation’s Constitution, the Standing Orders of the House and precedent – as in the Speakership of the late Hon. Edwin Ume-Ezeoke in the Second Republic on a minority platform – have all provided answers to what would have otherwise been a knotty political issue.”

If Tambuwal is principled as he want Nigerians to believe,he should be honest enough to resign the Speakership. Tanbuwal as a Lawyer knows the provisions of the 1999 Constitution. He cannot eat his cake and have a penny! Tambuwal should be honest with himself. APC as a party can never take it and APC should not expect PDP to accept it. How can the opposition preside in a House where the ruling party is in the majority? Haba,Nigerians should be honest!!

There is too much immaturity being displayed by the leadership of the PDP.
Actually, since I know them personally, I am not surprised.
These are old men who still behave like school boys.
I am only feel sorry for their wives and children.

Just a security
details withdrawal, and his supporters has started complaining. what
then happens when GEJ comes down hard on Him!

Note: he is no longer the speaker, so he is no longer entitled to those
security details. he lost the entitlement the day he decamped from the
party on whose platform he was elected as a parliamenterian in the first
place, before becoming the speaker. so that singular act of defecting,
has made him loose everything.

the Presidency, dosnt need a court action before it could do the
needful, because the constitution is so clear. Tambuwal is no longer a MEMBER of the House of Assembly, let alone its SPEAKER. because he
has defected.


Chai! GEJ the BIG Boss



Tambuwal the LEARNER

mabe u should take time to read what the constitution says about who and what makes one a speake of the house of assembly,, even if pdp constitution (if there is any) allows this ridiculous acts, i still believe its subject to the Costitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria!
Plus (beating you on your game) whya re the security details and powers of the other decampee to PDP from ACN not withdraws?
Whoever is advising Mr Jonathan either wants his failure or is foolish, Politics are for men not boys, check history: Ideology goes with interest which changes with time!

The highest all of you can do is rant here.

On a serious note why would he defect from the party that elected him into office and still want to remain in dat office?

It would have been better if he defected after serving his term.

Tell Mimiko and all his state house representatives to leave their post too .
Btw, seems you forgot that Tambuwa being made the speaker was not with the support of PDP .
Tell your PDP gather more strength to have 2/3 majority if they want him out .
Stop saying what you don't know about constitution.
There is no where it was stated that speaker should come from a majority party ...

This PDP e-rodent can be so lazy to get fact.


ALL IZZ WELL
I did not want to comment until I saw the only enlightened comment by you. PDP supporters on this forum need to be reminded that the powers that be within the party then were more interested in that woman from Oyo state in becoming the speaker and not Tambuwa. Tambuwa was supported by majorly APC members in the house who felt slapped by the attempt to impose that woman on the house by the PDP. Now he has aligned with the people who share the same dreams with him and PDP and their supporters are now crying foul.
They should tell Mimiko and his legislators in Ondo State to also resign since they have left the party that brought them all to their offices.

The removal of his security detail is commonsensical. If he thought that the APC noise-making/propaganda machinery would have saved him, he definitely was living in a fools paradise. This is only the beginning of his woes if he does not tender his resignation immediately. And for those who are quick to make references to what obains in the US, let me make it clear that the level of rascality being exhibited by APC cannot be condoned anywhere. Tambuwal surely must be severely purnished. For all I care APC and their supporters can go and cry in Tinubu Square.

I just keep loving this man called GEJ!!
When you think his is down......he keeps standing and smiling.
When they think he is clueless......he keeps exhibiting wisdom crowned with knowledge.
When they think he is weak..........he remains strong , throwing defendless punches to his enemy.

Tanbuwal taught he could play with PDP and go free.
He defected to APC and adjourned the house sitting to December ; which means no law will be passed, no legislative function for 2 months and they will still be paid with tax payers money.
Chai!! and APC supporters are clapping for him.

This is just the beginning...............

I expect more punches from GEJ.

It has emerged that there is no law mandating the speaker to come from the majority party as we do not run a parliamentary system of government. It has only been so cos the majority has the power of numbers on thier side and so had the upper hand in electing thier leaders. So the game has changed. trust that Tambuwal had an idea of this being a lawyer himself
