Speaker Of House Of Reps Tear Gassed
The National Assembly has been shut down after
all hell broke loose at the premises following the decision by policemen and
other security operatives to stop the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Aminu Tambuwal,
from gaining access.
Senate President,
David Mark, during plenary, announces the shutting down of the National
Assembly till Tuesday Though the
Speaker eventually gained entrance into the complex, other lawmakers had to
scale a fence to get into the complex. Thursday’s resumption was to
deliberate on a single agenda, which is “Consideration of Mr.President’s
request for extension of the existing State of Emergency”, according to an
earlier statement by the Speaker. The Inspector General of Police has also
been summoned to explain the action of the security operatives.

For me, this is the highest level of impunity and total disgrace to our dear nation...
