The Nigeria Police Force is set to restore the security details of Aminu Tambuwal, Speaker of the House of Representatives and Sokoto Gubernatorial candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
According to SAHARA REPORTERS, a source at the Nigeria police headquarters in Abuja said that the police will hinge its decision on the emergence of Tambuwal as the governorship candidate for the APC in the forthcoming general election.
"We still believe the Speaker is not entitled to security based on his decision to defect. The constitution is very clear on that, and we are defending our position well in court.
"However, since Tambuwal is now a candidate of a major political party in Sokoto, convention requires that the Police protects him. The Federal Government takes the security of leading candidates very seriously as such we will restore security to Tambuwal and at the same time provide same for all the leading candidates in all states of the Federation", the source added.
