The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Suleiman Abba refused to
recognize Mr. Aminu Tambuwal as speaker of the House of Representatives.
Abba simply addressed Mr. Tambuwal as "Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal," a title
that offended members of the House Committee on Police Affairs.
Abba said that it would be 'subjudice' for him to address Tambuwal as speaker for as long as the matter was in court.
Punch reports:
Chairman of the House committee, Mr. Usman Bello-Kurmo, asked him a
direct question, “Is Aminu Waziri-Tambuwal the Speaker of the House of
Representatives or not?”
The IG replied, “Mr. Chairman, you know that matters before the courts are subjudice.
“Commenting on them is subjudice until they are disposed of.”
The response brought the session between Abba and the committee to an abrupt end, as the two parties stormed out of the venue.
