I wonder how presidents and heads of states of other countries will be looking at Jonathan. They will now realize that he is more concerned about his political ambition than the insecurity in the country.

When we take a look at all the underlying factors, as much as one wants to support GEJ to complete his tenure, one is forced to see his desperation at gaining upper hand in every political event that unfolds.

If I was in the position of Ruben Abbati or Doyin Okupe, I would have advised GEJ to let some petty issues slide knowing GEJ will win with the 17million signatures gathered by TAN.

Its called choosing ur battles as a leader. He cant win this one. Its clear to everyone with a functioning brain. What are his alternatives? Shoot the guy? Imprison him? So long as his
assembly buddies refuse to impeach him only thing pdp can do is go to court. The assembly is asserting its independence. This thing that started like a joke has the potential of sinking the government and dealing gej a big blow. Bunch of amateurs. That's how they were pursuing sanusi. Anyone with a brain knew that would fail too.

@Chukwudi44, according to what Vanguard [PDP media wing] reported, Tambuwal stood his ground; he never took to his heels as alleged up there.

Here's the report:

By Emman Ovuakporie
ABUJA- Security operatives, Thursday, fenced the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal from entering the National Assembly Complex.

Lawmakers who accompanied the speaker had to climb the second entry point gate as some who could not climb sustained injuries while trying to scale over.

At about 10.54am after much entreaties the speaker was allowed entry but other lawmakers were denied entry.

The speaker’s official car was detained but after his entry into the outer space of the complex, Security men barricaded him and shot tear gas carnisters into the air to scare him but the speaker stood his [b]ground. .[/color]

The speaker who got to NASS at about 10.38am was accompanied by a long convoy of cars and was allowed to pass through the outer gate entry point.

The Deputy Speaker, Emeka Ihedioha arrived earlier at about 10.35am and was given a presidential passage into the complex.

However this Spineless Chap will wear full military attire at the slightest opportunity.
GEJ keep inviting the military ova every little civilian matter that can be solved by the courts.
