Be Prepared To Arrest 100 Legislators With Tambuwal – Dr. Ali Warns
The Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Justice,
Dr. Ali Ahmad, has warned the police against trying to make any attempt to arrest
the Speaker of the House, Aminu Tambuwal, stating that 100 legislators would be
prepared to follow him to prison. Ali made this statement yesterday in Ilorin, Kwara
State, while inaugurating the vocational centre of the University of Ilorin
Students’ Union, equipped by him.
“If anybody is
planning to arrest Mr. Speaker, they should be ready to arrest over 100
legislators. We would follow him to the prison. If they won’t open the prison
door, we would break it and go inside.
“If they are arresting the Speaker, they should be prepared;
we would all go in there. If they have shackles, they should go and buy more.
“We would do anything for Nigeria’s democracy not to be
sacrificed on the altar of somebody’s personal ego. Nigeria is a constitutional
country and is a government that is being governed by constitution.
