The embattled Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Aminu Waziri Tambuwal yesterday met with the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) , Chief John Odigie-Oyegun behind closed doors.
The crucial meeting which lasted for about 30 minutes was unconnected with the moves by the the Peoples Democratic Party to impeach him.
Tambuwal arrived the party secretariat at about 1.00pm in a self driven car and immediately went to the office of the APC national chairman where they met behind closed doors alongside the party’s Deputy National Chairman, North, Senator Lawal Shuaibu.
The Speaker, who arrived the secretariat in the absence of the national chairman, waited inside the office of the Deputy Chairman until the chairman arrived the secretariat.
The source said the meeting was unconnected with the recent events at the National Assembly, especially the moves by the PDP to ensure that he is impeached and how to counter such moves when the House reconvened.
However, Tambuwal refused to comment on the reason for the meeting, but rather turned the interaction with journalists who ambushed him into a joke.
Asked about his comment on the events at the House, he said “Are you not tired of hearing from me? I am tired of speaking o. No, no, it is not a meeting. It is just a nominal meeting.
