Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Aminu Tambuwal
Following the withdrawal of the security details attached to the Speaker of the House of Representatives Speaker, Aminu Tambuwal, 60 All Progressives Congress members of the House now move around with him to serve as security for the Speaker.
SUNDAY PUNCH learnt the 60 Reps have been accompanying Tambuwal around Abuja to protect him against potential security threats.
The lawmakers do not only drive along with him in a motorcade, they also form a shield around Tambuwal to protect him.
Tambuwal had, on Tuesday in Abuja formally defected from the Peoples Democratic Party to the All Progressives Congress, following weeks of speculation and intrigues.
One of the lawmakers providing shield for Tambuwal, Mr. Ahmad Ali, said, We are covering him and we will continue to fight this illegality until it is quashed.
We all went with him to the (Federal High) court today (Friday) to challenge the withdrawal of his security personnel.
Ali, who is the Chairman, House Committee on Justice, said the members would do everything within their power to protect Tambuwal.
Tambuwal and the APC have since defended his defection, claiming that the PDP had factions, in addition to arguing that the courts have yet to resolve pending cases on defection before them.
It was also learnt that the speaker and his loyalists were working to ensure that the alleged plot by the Presidency and the PDP caucus to reconvene the House before December 3 is frustrated.
A funny thing happened to New York progressives on their way to a total takeover of politics and public policy in the Empire State on Tuesday. Reality intruded.
It was only a year ago that the progs were presenting themselves as an irresistible force, about to transform New York from merely a reliably blue state into a pulsating cobalt beacon.
After all, Bill de Blasio running with a hot-pink City Council slate and backed heavily by the (putatively) progressive Working Families Party had just buried 20 years of middle-of-the-road municipal government under a 73%-of-the-vote landslide.
Havana on the Hudson had arrived. Next stop, Albany!
Or, as hard-left icon Bertha Lewis put it: Were baaaaack! The right wing will have to deal with it!
Well, as it turned out, not so much.
Polls suggest that the New York lefts principal strategic goal unambiguous control of the state Senate and with it, the catbirds seat in Albany seems all but unobtainable going into Tuesdays general election.
Its always-tenuous relationship with Gov. Cuomo is in tatters.
And its high hopes for sweeping victories in on-the-margin New York congressional districts have long-since faded; far greater is the likelihood of substantial Republican House gains in the state.
So what the hell happened?
