Hon. Kawu Sumaila pictured here taking a break after jumping the fence at the Assembly ground yesterday. He was also the one who charged at David Mark asking him to leave the chambers during yesterday's commotion. He later took off his suit to rest after all the running around, looking quite exhausted.
The guy don see oba..

These present day crop of legislooters are terrible

By their actions you shall know them....
Quite unfortunate

...And those are the people making our laws.

Lmaooo. Shameless old man.

He jumped one fence and walked to the complex and he is sweating like this? what of millions of nigerians that walk kilometers, jump gutters, jump fences, cross bridges and roads, paddle canoe to places of work and school everyday to earn a living and educated themselves what should they do then well just asking....

I don't know what you see...I see a man who fought for his right just like this poster below me rightly said.

You TAN Brigade are something else, you twist and turn logic on its head better than a break dancer.

Which is expressing a greater level of irresponsibility, a national assembly prevented from carrying out their constitutional duty by the executive ( to debate whether the State of Emergency should be extended) or the executive that is using illegal means to obstruct the legislature?

Who locked the Gates and why? And Go home to where? if Tambuwal and co had gone home, the next you will be hearing from PDP/TAN is that Tambuwal has been impeached by 50 PDP house of reps members and so Tambuwal should go to court if he is aggrieved. That is exactly what PDP is doing in Ekiti, where opposition lawmakers were prevented from entering the legislative chambers but access was granted to 7 PDP to carry out the purported impeachment of the substantive speaker.

I agree with you that most politicians are completely useless with no positive intents for the populace that elected them, but that is not the subject of debate right now. The question is why is your anger fixated on only the opposition party and their members while you idolize the other useless party or set of politicians.

People are supporting Tambuwal here on Nairaland because the actions of the executive is a threat to our democracy and corporate existence of Nigeria. There are far pressing issues confronting the country than who is defecting where, and the president is misplacing his priorities.

Only in Nigeria.

Fence scaling honourables!

Somebody should have handed them poles to pole-vault over the gate...

That could have looked smarter, at least...

Then you don't know your history very well. In the 50s, in the Western house of Representatives, legislators went berserk... Smashing chairs on any available heads. in fact, today's generation of lawmakers still dey learn. just research on the political rivalry between akintola and awolowo. Those two introduced thuggery and the 'rent a crowd' phenomenon into our politics.

whicn right he de fight for.... they are all fighting to steal

His supposed fatigue cannot be compared to what the poor masses pass through everyday to put garri on their table so let him feel the heat for once!

I'm sure he has not sweat or exercise for a decade now.

You should have known what I meant by the statement

Yesterday 7 PDP lawmakers were irresponsible enough to impeach their speaker on their own accord at Ekiti State. Yesterday APC lawmakers at the HOR had to resist such action by this government who obviously have no regard for laws. Why were PDP lawmakers allowed in before hand? Why did they lock all APC Reps outside? I thought it was supposed to be just Tambuwal? I support their actions fully.

Guy you be a custodian of legislative history?

Smh look at the types of Criminals who scale fence we elect to make laws for us in this country. This country is a big joke.

Somebody's father being made an object of ridicule. He allowed it anyway. God,help our country.

don't mind this paid per post online people,everyone was aghast with what the police did yesterday,the police has no right the prevent any lawmaker from entering the premises of the National assembly,if it's going on in the states and they are turning blind eyes to it,we most not allow it at the federal level,we are already a laughing stock among other Nations,this act of executive interference would have shut down the nation economy in other countries,with strikes and massive protest,if Gej should get away with this it will make him a maximum ruler,dictator,the National assembly must not be cowed.

Why all the hullabaloo about jumping the fence ? What where they supposed to do if a tyrant president sends armed masked men to lock up the parliament, where the representatives of the people preside? Sit down and look? If all those who fought for our democracy had sat down looking, i bet we would still have been firmly under military rule now. Oppressors always take advantage of our sense of civility and decorum to perpetuate their evil, whereas they are not civil nor decorous in their own actions. If an intruder locks you out in your house what will you do? In saner climes the people would have been on the street this morning protesting the tyranny of the Lion of Otuoke. alas this is Nigeria where reason is stood on its head. The clear sign though is that Jonathan is going down faster than we thought.

which fence the police had no right to close the gate against them in the 1st places,trust me,those are heros of democracy,what happened yesterday is akin to what Yeltsin did in the soviet union,when he turned the turret of armour tanks on the parliament.

Roflmao!
