I Dare All PDP Members, You cant unseat me –Tambuwal
Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Waziri
Tambuwal, yesterday said only God and the members of the
House could unseat him.
According to him, there was no way the ruling Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, could remove him from office. This
is even as General Mohammed Buhari (Rtd), declared that
with free and fair election, the All Progressives Congress,
APC, would record a landslide victory in the forth-coming
election.
They both spoke at the North-West Zonal Executive
Committee meeting of the party, held in Kaduna, yesterday.
Expectedly, the Speaker, who was attending the APC's zonal
meeting for the first time, since his defection, came to
Kaduna without his security aides.
Speaking to newsmen shortly after the meeting, which was
held behind closed doors, Tambuwal declared that the PDP
could not remove him as Speaker.
He said the majority of the members of the House were
behind him and that people could go and verify his claim,
urging Nigerians to discard the wrong information being
circulated around by agents of distraction regarding his
person.
On his court case, Tambuwal said his counsel, Lateef
Fagbemi (SAN), had explained everything when he said the
status quo referred to the period before his security details
were withdrawn and any attempt to alter the court order,
would amount to contempt.
"Yes, I am here for the first time to attend the zonal meeting
of the North-West of APC, my political party. As for my fate
in the National Assembly and Speaker of House of
Representative, it is in the hands of God and members of
the House," Tambuwwal said.
But he however declined to comment on his rumoured
interest in the Sokoto State governorship race.
Among those who attended the closed door meeting were:
General Muhammadu Buhari, Deputy Governor of Kano
State, Alhaji Abdullahi Ganduje, and APC National Vice
Chairman (North- West), Barrister Inuwa Abdulkadir, among
others.
Also speaking at the party meeting, APC presidential
aspirant, General Muhammadu Buhari said the party would
record a landslide victory in the 2015 general elections, if
the polls were free and fair.
