For the first time in the
last 14 years, a majority
of the National Assembly
in Nigeria is now
dominated by the leading
opposition party, the APC.
The political development
is highly unsettling. The
stakes are high but the
odds may even be higher,
as the House Speaker, Rt
Hon. Aminu Tambuwal, is
set to unveil the reality.
The House of Reps is now
revelling in jubilation over
the fortunes recorded by
the APC...
With the defection of
Governors Chibuike
Amaechi, Aliyu Wamakko,
Murtala Nyako, Abdulfatah
Ahmed and Rabiu Musa
Kwankwaso to the APC,
the political equation in
Nigeria has changed
drastically.
After a long battle with
President Jonathan and
the PDP leadership, the
governors in concert with
lawmakers controlled by
them and other dissident
PDP chieftains, defected
to the APC.
The decision of the big
shots to move over has
become a subject for
frenzied debate.
The defection of the
governors have resonated
in the National Assembly.
Though the elation is
controlled for now, but it
is set to bob up to a
frenzy this week when the
defectors finally declare
their allegiance for APC
