PDP Takes Revenge Against Tambuwal, With Withdrawal Of Security.

Reports indicates 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withdrawn by the Federal Government.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.
