Reps Exchange Blows, Disrupt Baraje’s Visit To House by luvola(m): 9:13pm On Sep 17, 2013 |
Fighting broke out in the House of Representatives on Tuesday, disrupting the visit of the Alhaji Kawu Baraje-led faction of the Peoples Democratic Party to the federal lawmakers A member from Bayelsa State, Mr. Henry Ofongo, was punched and shoved repeatedly by his colleagues as he sought to stop the visit of the group. He was ruffled and his jacket pulled off, as some members, notably Kano State lawmakers, also attempted to throw chairs. Mr. Dakuku Peterside and Andrew Uchendu, both from Rivers State, were also sighted among them. Baraje had arrived at the House in company with the seven aggrieved governors, who are members of the ‘new PDP.’ The governors were Aliyu Wamakko (Sokoto); Babangida Aliyu (Niger); Rabiu Kwankwaso (Kano); Romiti Amaechi (Rivers); Sule Lamido (Jigawa); Murtala Nyako (Adamawa); and Abdul-Fatai Ahmed (Kawara). The Speaker of the House, Mr. Aminu Tambuwal, and other principal officers received them at Room 0.28. Other principal officers in attendance were the Deputy Speaker, Mr. Emeka Ihedioha; the Majority Leader, Mrs. Mulikat Akande-Adeola; the Chief Whip, Mr. Ishaka Bawa; Deputy Leader, Mr. Leo Ogor; and Deputy Whip, Mr. Murktar Ahmed. As Baraje was introduced to state the purpose of the visit, Afongo and some of his colleagues stormed the meeting room. He had Betty Apiafi (Rivers); Bethel Amadi (Imo); Kingsley Chinda (Rivers); Bitrus Kaze (Plateau) and others in tow. Afongo shouted, “Point of order, point of order” and charged in the direction of the high table in a bid to register his protest. source : http://www.nairacity..com/2013/09/reps-exchange-blows-disrupt-barajes.html

But this Baraje is pushing too far. He should look inwards before being pushed by Atiku to his own cross. When the table turns on him, I wonder if all the 'ayeh' will be there to offer succour. |
