The House of Rep. Speaker has been urged to step down from his post after defecting from the People's Democratic Party(PDP) to All Progressive Party(APC) cos he won the post while he was with PDP. According to Premium Times....
The clearest indication he was joining the
opposition party came more than a week ago
when he attended a meeting of the APC in
Sokoto State.
He said the state governor, Aliyu Wammako,
had invited him for the meeting after he was
snubbed by a visiting PDP delegation to the
state, led by Tony Anenih, the Board of
Trustees chairman.
His months of denial is believed to have been
informed by his concerns about losing his
position as the speaker.
The PDP said its National Working Committee
has met with its leaders in the House of
Representatives concerning the defection of
the speaker, and after due considerations, it
said the speaker should do what is
honourable since his new party is in the
minority.
“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.
“We are not unmindful of the fact that Hon.
Tambuwal became Speaker on the platform of
the PDP as the political party with the majority
of seats in the House of Representatives and
that this incontrovertible fact has not
changed'' The question still remains what is APC doing right to be having more people defect from the PDP.
