Scores of State Security Service, SSS, personnel have taken over the National Assembly ahead of a crucial House of Representatives sitting today, in an enhanced security operations one official
said is aimed at denying the speaker, Aminu Tambuwal, access to the complex.
Mr. Tambuwal’s spokesperson told PREMIUM TIMES the move may be aimed at stopping the speaker.
PREMIUM TIMES could not immediately verify that claim. Mr. Tambuwal angered the ruling government of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, by defecting to the opposition All Progressives
Congress, APC.
The speaker adjourned the House shortly after his defection on October 28, and announced a resumption schedule for December in what was believed an attempt to frustrate any move by
his former party to unseat him.
