, Says

The tsunami which swept through the political landscape in Abuja on Tuesday afternoon is set to hit the chamber of the National Assembly, with the House of Representatives as the starting point of the move.
Reacting to the merger of the All Progress Congress and the new PDP leadership, the Speaker of the House of the Representatives, Rt. Hon. Aminu Tambuwal, welcomed the development and declare the floor open for any of the members who are ready to join the merger, officially.

In a statement in Abuja on Tuesday, he said: "Members of Parliament will decide collectively on when to defect. They have their internal process if they decide to cross carpet."

Tambuwal, who made his position known in a statement through his Special Adviser on Media, said it is left to members to activate the process. "Let us wait and see whether they can activate the process or not.”

The 1999 Constitution allows defection of lawmakers if there is division in their political party.
...People the die is cast!
