A meeting
between the seven governors of the new Peoples Democratic Party faction, and
members of the House of Representatives has ended after fighting broke out. The
governors, alongside the chairman of the faction, Abubakar Baraje, met first
with senate president, David Mark. A follow up meeting at the House of
Representatives with Speaker Aminu Tambuwal, and members of the House,
degenerated into chaos with supporters of the Bamanga Tukur-led PDP jeering at
remarks made by Mr Baraje.
The chaos
soon escalated after two members, Dagogo Peterside and Henry Ofongo, from Rivers
and Bayelsa states respectively, went up against each other. Mr.
Baraje told Mr. Mark that President Goodluck Jonathan must give up his ambition
for a new term. (Source: Pemium Times)
