Just one day after his security aides were withdrawn by the Federal Government, the Speaker of the House of Reps, Aminu Tambuwal, has filed a suit contrary to the FG before a Federal High court in Abuja.
Tanbuwal filed the suit today Oct. 31st asking the court to declare that the withdrawal of his security aides while he's still the Speaker is unlawful and unconstitutional. He also asked the court to restrain FG from further infringing on his rights and privileges. You will find reports they want to declare his seat vacant and organize a bye-election for the goal of replacing him. Tanbuwal asked the court to restrain FG, INEC, PDP and IGP from doing this. For the time being, he wants the court to order FG to get back his security detail pending the determination of the suit.
