FG Withdraws Tambuwal's Security Details by SBJoji(m): 6:06am On Oct 30, 2014
Reports reaching Daily Trust indicate that all the security details attached to Speaker of the House of Representatives Aminu Waziri Tambuwal have been withdrawn by the Federal Government.

Tambuwal formally announced his defection from the ruling Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) to the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) last Tuesday.

A source told daily Trust: "Early this morning, few minutes after midnight to be precise, top level security report informed the Speaker that orders have been given for the withdrawal of his security details.”

The withdrawal of his security details may not be unconnected with his defection from the PDP which didn't go down well with the party and the presidency.

The PDP had on Tuesday called on Mr. Tambuwal to resign his position as Speaker having left the party that brought him to the House of Representatives in 2011.

Tambuwal received a warm welcome on Wednesday, a day after his formal defection at the extraordinary national convention of the APC in Abuja when he showed up at the convention ground accompanied by 160 of his APC colleagues.

He later addressed the convention expressing his delight in joining the APC and said he has embraced the APC platform as an instrument for genuine change and enduring national development.

As the number four citizen of the country in the hierarchy of protocol, the Speaker is entitled to a round the clock security made up of men from the Police, Civil Defence Corps and the Department of State Security (DSS).

Our source said Tambuwal was told that “a verdict will be entered against him by a Court in Abuja on Thursday. The thing here is that why not wait for the verdict before any action is taken? "
Efforts to reach the Speaker have so far proved unsuccessful. Calls and SMS sent to his spokesman Malam Imam Imam, have so far remained unanswered.

Details coming…

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!!

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.

Since he hasn't resigned why not wait till he is impeached or sacked by the court before withdrawing his security details.

Which constitution was followed?

Jonathan must go ! We are tired.

It is high time we give another party a chance to see what they can do, we can't just assume that both APC and PDP are the same when we have not tried the former at the federal level. Even to some extent the APC have performed better in their various states compare to their PDP counterpart. The Time for change is now.

Who is this displaying constitutional illiteracy,please enlighten me where in constitution was stated that speaker/senate president must come from a particular party?

It was because of the numerical strength of the PDP legislators that made them elect Tambuwal, and now that he has defected to another party and no impeachable offenses against him,he still remain the speaker of the house.

The only condition where he can be removed is for PDP legislators to search Tambuwal cupboard for any skeleton if found, then impeachment notice is serve if nothing, Tambuwal ride on joooor.

gibberish!!!
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.

what the presidency did is highly wrong and uncalled for if this news is actually true. Tambuwal is a Nigerian first and he have every right to decamp to any party he wants. The ruling party should always follow due process whenever they want to displine or punish Nigerians. You cant just withdraw the security of the number 4 citizen in the country just like that. Is never done in any civilize nation.
