Commotion at National Assembly
There was commotion at the National Assembly on Thursday as a plot to stop the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Aminu Tambuwal, from entering the assembly complex failed.
Riot policemen tear-gassed angry lawmakers, who were protesting against the development.
Although the general belief was that the security operatives were deployed in the assembly to prevent Tambuwal from presiding over Thursday’s “special plenary,”The PUNCH gathered that it was to stop some lawmakers, especially those in the All Progressives Congress Caucus, from tabling a motion for President Goodluck Jonathan’s impeachment.
