PDP Tells Tambuwal To Resign As Speaker After Defecting To APC

Following Aminu Tambuwal's defection from PDP to APC yesterday, the PDP have asked him to do the "needful" by resigning as Speaker of the House of Reps since he won the seat on the platform of PDP.

PDP tells Tambuwal to resign as Speaker

In a statement released yesterday, the People's Democratic Party said:
"After a thorough consideration of the matter, the NWC (National Working Committee) came to a conclusion that the Hon. Speaker, as a responsible elected officer, knows full well what is needful and honourable of him since his new party is in the minority. We are not unmindful of the fact that Hon. Tambuwal became Speaker on the platform of the PDP as the political party with the majority of seats in the House of Representatives and that this incontrovertible fact has not changed.”
