Lawmakers order IGP to recognize Tabuwal as speaker

-
Members of the House of Representatives committee on police affairs were on Wednesday afternoon engaged in a heated argument with Inspector General of Police Suleiman Abba over last Thursday's security siege on the National Assembly.
 
The committee had summoned Abba to explain the circumstances that led some of his men to prevent Speaker Aminu Waziri Tambuwal from gaining access into the parliament building and in the process harassed the Speaker as well as other lawmakers.

But at Wednesday’s session, Abba said some thugs tried to gain illegal access into the premises of the federal legislature.

However, the lawmakers were angry when Abba refused to recognise Tambuwal as Speaker and demanded him to revert his position. The session got heated as the lawmakers took turn to rebuff the IGP.

Muhammadu Buhari, is better than his Peoples Democratic Party’s opponent, President Goodluck Jonathan. “Buhari may have age and health challenges but he has ten times the goodwill of Jonathan,” Abdulrahman claimed. Recently, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on Public Affairs, Doyin Okupe, described Jonathan as the best president the country has ever produced. He also likened the President to Jesus Christ. But the ACF chieftain said the former Head of State would make a better president,” if elected as the nation’s president in 2015. He also alleged that the Jonathan administration was running an ethnic government. “There is really no basis upon which to make a comparative measure of capacities or capabilities between General Muhammadu Buhari and President Goodluck Jonathan…Warning!

IF NOT AJIBOLA, WHO ELSE? BY MR.RIGHTS For the first time since PDP conducted its primary election, I am coming out from my sit down look mode to contribute to the political logjam that the Kwara PDP are currently being confronted with. Like you all know, I hardly contribute to internal political issues since I am not a member of any political party, but since Senator S.S Ajibola emergence as PDP governorship candidate in Kwara State, many mind troubling comments and incidents have occurred. First of all, we must not forget why Kwara PDP is said to stand for freedom in the liberation struggle. Many opposition members in Kwara state went to PDP not because they are interested in the party itself, they did because Bukola Saraki had taken over the All Progressive Congress (APC) and since Kwarans always believe in the power of a superior federal might, many believed with the PDP’s incumbency status at the federal level, they could successfully defeat Bukola Saraki. Many who explained...

Instead of diverting public attention with its usual deceit and propaganda, the APC government should gear up and deliver on its hundreds of unfulfilled campaign promises, the PDP Caucus in the House of Representatives has said. In a statement issued by the House Minority Leader, Honourable Leo Ogor, the PDP House caucus warned that the APC’s uncharitable use of the Chibok’s girls’ abduction during the 2015 political campaigns along with its current propaganda efforts cannot help APC win re-election in 2019. “Over and over, it has been proven that hands down, the current APC government in Nigeria beats all preceding administration, including the colonial ones, in the sinister art of deceitful lies and propaganda. “With fiendish mercilessness, APC’s 2015 campaign milked the unfortunate abduction of Chibok girls for every available ounce of propaganda and disinformation against the preceding administration; its campaign rhetoric and official hoopla from the lying ministe...

I do not know Tinubu or Lai Muhammed, Kwara Must Change Convener –Abdulrazaq Hamzat

Few weeks ago, my attention was drawn to an agitprop and hogwash material circulated online by agents of the Senate President titled: Brief History of Kwara Must Change anchor (Tinubu’s Agent in Kwara). My initial reaction was to ignore it because i do not think it is worthy of my response. However, i am now forced to issue this response because of genuine concerns by friends and associates concerning the content of the material. The material, which also made it to the front page of nairaland, Africa’s largest forum was circulated by emissary of the ruling government in Kwara State in a desperate attempt to link the Pro-Democracy struggle of Kwara Must Change to end oppression and enthrone people’s governance to some imaginary sponsors that do not exist anywhere. It is important to note that, this is not the first time the Bukola Saraki led dynasty will be attempting to link Abdulrazaq Hamzat or Kwara Must Change to Former Lagos State governor, Bola Tinubu and Minister of Inf...
