Aminu Tambuwal,
Speaker, House of Representatives has been running from pillar to post in the
last few weeks and he has been clinging to dim hope as his chances of clinching
the governorship seat of Sokoto State are getting slipping away from him really
fast.
Tambuwal who was
declared flag bearer of his party, All Progressive Congress (APC), has been in
the middle of a legal battle over irregularities at the governorship primaries.
Amongst other gross
misconducts in the governorship primary election of December 4, 2014 that
Tambuwal is answering a case for at the Federal High Court, Abuja are
allegations that the officials of the
Sokoto State Government as well as officials of APC denied all other aspirants
except Animu Tambuwal access to the delegates.
The screening of
delegates on the day of the primaries was not done between the stipulated hours
of 8am and 12 noon and the list of the delegates as issued by the National
Secretariat of APC was not used in the
conduct of the said election of December 4, 2014.
