The national leadership of the Peoples
Democratic Party is pushing for the
resignation of the Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Mallam Aminu Tambuwal
over his defection to the APC.
Already, the members of the National
Working Committee of the party had met with
PDP leaders in the House concerning the
defection.
The National Publicity Secretary of the party,
Chief Olisa Metuh, disclosed this in an
interview with journalists in Abuja.
He said, “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.”
It was gathered that the party might be
pushing for his impeachment if he refused to
resign.
