Tobi Soniyi in Abuja



An attempt by the Peoples Democratic Party to surreptitiously remove the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, through an ex parte application has. failed as the trial judge, Justice Ahmed Mohammed, ordered the party to put the Speaker on notice.

The court turned down the party's request for an ex parte order to compel Tambuwal to vacate his seat as Speaker of the House of Representatives following his defection from the majority party (PDP).

PDP's counsel, Chief Mike Ahamba (SAN), who argued the application, said Tambuwal had lost his seat by reason of his defection, according to the provisions of section 68 of the 1999 constitution.

The party joined the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal and the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Emeka Ihedioha, as respondents in the motion.

It urged the court to order Tambuwal to give effect to the provisions of section 68(1)(g) of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 (as amended) to declare his seat at the House of Representatives vacant.

PDP also prayed the court for an alternative order directing the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives to declare the Kebbe/Tambuwal seat vacant by an order of mandamus.

Also in the ex parte motion, PDP asked the court to stop Tambuwal from performing or continuing to perform the function of the Speaker in the House of Representatives, or sitting or continuing to sit in the House as a member.

PDP chiefs are fighting over a lost battle. They will be defeated in this suit. Tambawal Remains Speaker till May 29, 2015!

Pure lie. Read here: https://www.nairaland.com/2024096/breaking-court-grants-pdp-leave

Some programmed trolls are celebrating in the thread on the front page not knowing they are celebrating their ignorance and illiteracy on the process of law.

How can you seek an ex-parte jugdment without an originating summon? I no be lawyer but I sabi book small.

This case go dey till 2023 after tambuwal finished his second term as governor.

The provision of Section 68(1)g of the Constitution is very clear, and not open to liberal interpretation...

So many conflicting stories on NL today

Hmmmm read latest news

Me thinks the judges here are applying common sense in dealing with issues so as not to overheat the polity...

From Tinubu's newspaper The Nation:
Click>>> Court grants PDP permission to move against Tambuwal

Justice Ahmed Mohammed, in an ex-parte ruling on Monday granted the PDP “leave to apply, by way of judicial review, for an order of mandamus compelling the Speaker or Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives to give effect to the provisions of Section 68(1)(g) of the Constitution by declaring the Kebbe/Tambuwal federal Constituency seat vacant.”

Kebbe/Tambuwal federal Constituency will soon be vacant and on behalf of Nigerians I say sai gobe, kachifono, oda bo to Tambuwal.

Tambu-out is gone!

Tufiakwa!

Hear the genius political commentator, I laugh in Swahili.

Whether these touts like it or not, Tambuwal will preside over the affairs of the House till the 7th Reps is inaugurated. After that, he would be sworn in as the Executive Governor of Sokoto State!

As for this thread, it would be easier to pick a pin from the pit, than for this thread to be moved to the homepage. Those Mods were so fast to move the one created by Sunnybobo to the homepage simply because they felt it was against APC.

It seems the mods no longer move threads created by progressives to the front page!

Almost all threads there are created by Ishilove, Ceo4eva, phockphockman, sunnybobo and other yeye handles here! I maybe wrong though!

Seun, this threads deserves front page, but I'm curious to know what the topic would be changed to if it peradventure gets to front page.

cause I remember a topic changed to APC reps moves to impeach GEJ or something similar to that.

make I dey watch.

Its easier for PDP to remove Tambuwal than this making frontpage!

I remember a similar case between Agbakoba and Itse Sagay debates on the same issue!

You're damn right. Most of the threads moved to the homepage now are mostly Anti-Buhari/Tambuwal.

Naijalitics! Naijacracy!
Even the ancient Greeks would be turning in their graves!

Am neither APC nor PDP!!!

Both news articles - the one here and the one presenting the same story a different way - have the noxious stench of propaganda.

While you are quick to push the one that suit your paymasters to the frontpage?
