IG refuses to recognise Tambuwal as Speaker

The Inspector-General of Police, Mr. Suleiman Abba, was adamant on Wednesday, refusing to recognise the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mr. Aminu Tambuwal, as the speaker.

He simply addressed him as “Alhaji Aminu Tambuwal”, a title that angered members‎ of the House Committee on Police Affairs.

A resilient ‎Abba insisted that it would be “subjudice ” for him to address Tambuwal as speaker or any matter relating to him so long as such a matter was in court.

The Chairman of the 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.”
