Tambuwal Asks President Goodluck Jonathan To Resign?

 

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, on Wednesday, November 5, asked President Goodluck Jonathan to resign from office “because of all the mis-governance and the untold hardship Nigerians are presently passing through”.
During the formal declaration of Governor Abdulfatah Ahmed for a second term at Metropolitan Square in Ilorin, Kwara State, Tambuwal warned that if he fails to do that, Nigerian voters should revolt against him at the February presidential poll, as the Premium Times reports.
“That will bring peace, progress and development of Nigeria,” he said.
The Speaker had, at the APC extraordinary convention last week, said the party would chase out the “cabal” running the country at the poll next year.

“I am sure that (Kwara) state will provide such leadership to the extent that we shall deliver this country to the government at the centre to APC.
‘’By voting APC at the centre you will be voting for prosperity and eradication of poverty. What we
are witnessing today in Nigeria is not governance, but mis-governance. We are witnessing a system that does not have the interest of the people of this country at heart,” he said in Ilorin on Wednesday.
According to Tambuwal, Kwara State’s political history is a rich one. He said the foundation of the political struggle and the structure laid by the late Olusola Saraki was being sustained by God.
He also noted that with the support of the people, the APC would “form 100 percent of the government in the state from the local council to state Assembly and to the Government House”.
A former governor of Lagos , Bola Tinubu, who also spoke at the event, lambasted Mr. Jonathan for allowing the Boko Haram terrorists to seize parts of the nation’s territory, stating that he ought to have resigned because of the development.
The APC leader, who recently returned from a medical trip abroad, asked the party members to be ready for change because the race had begun. According to him, the party had endorsed Mr. Ahmed for second term because he performed well in office like his predecessor, Bukola Saraki.
Moreover, Mr. Tinubu alleged that the PDP administration not only steals the people’s money on daily basis, but also refused to give them jobs.
He said: “I will come back. This is just the endorsement of Governor Ahmed; that he will be re-elected by the grace of God with the support of you people here and those outside there. The unemployment situation will be conquered by this administration of APC. We have the vision for the security of lives of our children.”
