Clerverly:
I read an article somewhere, where Oliseh Metuh of PDP, called for the resignation of Hon. Tambuwal for ditching a party on whose majority he rose to the office of the speaker house of Representative.

In his exact words: “After a thorough consideration of the matter, the NWC came to a conclusion that the Hon. Speaker, as a responsible elected officer, knows full well what is needful and honourable of him since his new party is in the minority [in the House]” he said.

I have also read some comments offline and online, when some ignorant/paid commentators have started insinuating that Hon Tambuwal May lose his office for simply not fulfilling the requirements of the law as regards the position of speaker.

It is very unfortunate that some Nigerians including public office holders are too lazy, to read the elementary sections of our Constitution, some of which are self explanatory.

Now, let us examine what Chapter V, Part 1 (Composition Of National Assembly) sections 47 -50 of the Constitution Of The Federal Republic Of Nigeria holds:

There shall be a National Assembly for the Federation which shall consist of a Senate and a House of Representatives.

48. The Senate shall consist of three Senators from each State and one from the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

49. Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the House of Representatives shall consist of three hundred and sixty members representing constituencies of nearly equal population as far as possible, provided that no constituency shall fall within more than one State.

50. (1) There shall be:-

(a) a President and a Deputy President of the Senate, who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves; and

(b) a Speaker and a Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, who shall be elected by the members of that House from among themselves.

(2) The President or Deputy President of the Senate or the Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives shall vacate his office -

(a) if he ceases to be a member of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, otherwise than by reason of a dissolution of the Senate or the House of Representatives; or

(b) when the House of which he was a member first sits after any dissolution of that House; or

(c) if he is removed from office by a resolution of the Senate or of the House of Representatives, as the case may be, by the votes of not less than two-thirds majority of the members of that House.

So where did PDP find the supposedly "loophole" or authority in law, in asking Hon. Tambuwal to resign? The only option left for them, is to rally their members and see if they can muster the required number when plenary resumes in decemeber, in order to satisfy Section 50, subsection 2 C as highlighted above.

Anything else is calling for anarchy!

the Nigerian constitution has to be reviewed and solutions to some of these illegalities enshrined there in! It is criminal for anyone in actual sense and in the real sense of truth for anyone to get elected under a certain party and still one to retain their positions after defection! U can't eat ur cake and have it! Is more like selling a car and still wanting to drive that car! PDP can as a party introduce that as a resolution and a term of membership to whoever wishes to be a part of that party in the future! In Nigeria corrupt and criminal politicians explore every available option to hang onto privileges which judging by good morals and a conscience look more of injustices and like cheating measures! Its is greed and selfishness that drives men who should be honorable to being dishonorable! He has to bow his head in shame and vacate! Its a way of an honorable member! PDP can explore anyway possible to boot him out! He is greedy!

PDP HAD BEEN CELEBRATING DEFECTIONS SINCE 1999.
YOU ARE BLIND TO SEE THIS CONSTITUTIONAL DEFECTS BECAUSE IT PAYS YOU AND YOUR PARTY.
NOW THAT IT IS AGAINST PIM DE PIM, YOUR EYES ARE OPENED.

I APPRECIATE GOD THAT YOU ARE SINCERE ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT PDP IN ALL GENERATION CAN NOT UNSEAT TAMBUWAL.
ONLY HIM WILL CHOSE TO LEAVE OR NOT.

IN SUMMARY, PDP WANTS TO HAVE THE SAME CAKE THEY HAVE BEEN EATING SINCE 1999
PEOPLE ARE TRULING DECIEVING PEOPLE.

PARTY DEFECTION AND DEMOCRATIC CONSOLIDATION IN NIGERIA, 1999-2009
Peter Mbah
Lecturer, Dept. of Political Science, University of Nigeria, Nsukka, Enugu State, Nigeria

In 1999, Chief Evan Enwerem, having lost the gubernatorial primaries in the All Peoples Party
(APP) in Imo State, decamped and joined the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on whose ticket
he won a sensational seat. His cross carpeting was rewarded as he was elected the Senate
President (Odum, 2002). In Plateau State Alhaji Alhassan Shaibu decamped from the APP and
joined the PDP in 1999. He is now a leading member of the Northern Nigeria Development
Company (NNDC). In Cross River State, not less than seven prominent APP and AD members
have cross-carpeted to the PDP so that today, Cross River State is PDP state in every respect.
Evidently, the direction of defection shows that it is one-sided, and is essentially into the PDP,
the ruling party. Only little percentage seems to be defecting from PDP to other parties or form a
new political party. However, there is nothing wrong in people cross-carpeting if they do not find
the programmes of their party in consonance with their ideals. It becomes dubious when
politicians begin to mortgage their consciences as well as seek to pursue their private and selfish
interest in the name of cross carpeting. This may have stemmed from the mere fact that
politicians are poor and desperate to hold public office as a means of accumulating wealth. In
advanced democracies, cross carpeting is done on principle, rather than on selfish and personal
interest. What we are witnessing today is political prostitution which lacks political morality.
A chronicle of defection shows that the most recent cases of cross-carpeting is that of the former
Vice President, Atiku Abubakar. He was a founding member of the PDP, and defected to the
Action Congress (AC) after a running battle with the former President Olusegun Obasanjo. In
2007 he contested the presidential elections on the platform of AC, but lost to the late President
Umaru Yar’Adua. A few months ago, Atiku went back to the PDP where he contested the
presidential primaries.
Before Atiku’s defection, Ondo and Edo States witnessed cross-carpeting of members of the
opposition parties to the party of the incumbent governor. Edo State witnessed a large defection
of members of the PDP to the AC, which is the Governor’s party (Agina, 2010:3). In Ondo state,
it was a mass cross-carpeting of PDP members to the Labour Party (LP) of which the incumbent
governor is a member. In both cases, the cross-carpeting were an aftermath of political battles
and in-fighting.Afro Asian Journal of Social Sciences
Volume 2, No. 2.3 Quarter III 2011
ISSN 2229 - 53137
There again came defection of state governors to the ruling party, the PDP. The first was that of
incumbent governor of Bauchi State, Isa Yaguda who had won the governorship election on the
platform of the All Nigerian Peoples Party (ANPP), but defected to the PDP with a large number
of his supporters. Others include the incumbent governor of Imo state, Ikedi Ohakim, who won
the governorship election on the platform of the Peoples Progressive Alliance (PPA) but defected
to the PDP. Aliyu Shinkafi of Zamfara State (ANPP) and Saminu Turaki of Jigawa state (ANPP)
all defected to PDP.
Defections in recent times is not only peculiar to states, senators are equally involved. Recently,
six senators who were elected on the platform of the ANPP,the Accord Party (AP) and the
Action Congress (AC) cross-carpeted to PDP. These include Senators Sali Gogwin(AC, Plateau
state), Patrick Osakwe (AP, Delta state), Patricia Akawasike, (ANPP, Nassarawa state) and Sa’di
Yauo (ANPP, Zamfara state). Since 2007 when the present National Assembly was inaugurated,
no fewer than 13 Senators and 15 members of the House of Representatives have defected to the
PDP.
Cross-carpeting certainly predates Nigeria’s independence. However, this has been shaped and
sharpened by colonialism and sustained by the structures of post-colonial state. It was
colonialism that set the pace for modernization and economic development in Nigeria, while
dramatically changing the existing patterns of social, political and economic interactions among
peoples and groups. Colonialism had far reaching and uniform impact on the development of the
Nigerian ruling class, their character and behaviour. There are two ways the defections occur.
First, there is great movement of politicians from different political parties into the ruling party
towards the time of the general elections. The idea is to participate in party primaries of the
ruling party.
The second movement starts after the party primaries. At this point those who lost in the party
primaries move to their former parties or to new ones or even to form a new party under which
they intend to contest the coming elections.

my friend stop displaying your daftness in public go and read that very constitution part v section 68 sub 1g it states. A Member of the Senate or house of reps shall vacate his seat in the house of which he is a member if (g) being a person whose election to the house was sponsored by a political party, he becomes a member of another political party before the expiration of the period for which the house was elected : provided that his membership of the latter political party is not as a result of division in the political party of which he was previously a member or of merger of two or more parties or factions by one which he was previously sponsored. By this section tambuwal is supposed to vacate his seat in the house.

I refer you to Section 68 subsection 1(g), which provides that a person seizes to be a member of the National Assembly if, inter alia;

"being a person whose election to the
House was sponsored by a political
party, he becomes a member of another
political party before the expiration of
the period for which that House was
elected;

Provided that his membership of the
latter political party is not as a result of
a division in the political party of which
he was previously a member or of a
merger of two or more political parties
or factions by one of which he was
previously sponsored".

So Tambuwal, being a lawyer knows that he has flouted the Law of the Land.
