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.
“It’s not a kingdom; you cannot just wake up and say you want somebody to disappear. No, you are there because of the constitution; you will continue to be there because of the constitution and when you leave, you leave because of the constitution.

Who this mad man by d name Dr, Ali? Let them leave President Jonathan alone. President Goodluck is doing well, his only sin is that he is from South South(minority tribe) He is not from born to rule tribes Hausa/Fulani and Yoruba.

DSS, please as a matter of urgency, stop all politicians from sending their FAMILIES / CHILDREN abroad. Let us all remain here to witness what they are plotting.

Yeye country, I beg God to deploy all this political police and army to Yobe, Borno and Adamawa. God will surely punish Jona for all this. His cup will surely full one day.
