I’m still in PDP -Tambuwal Speaker of the House of Representatives, Aminu Tambuwal, on Friday, declared that he was still a member of the Peoples Democratic Party. Speaking on arrival in Benin, Edo State, the Speaker debunked insinuations that he was dumping the party for the All Progressives Congress. Meanwhile, the Speaker has described Governor Adams Oshiomhole as a defender of democracy and achiever. Tambuwal, who was on a courtesy call to government house, Benin, shortly after paying a condolence visit to the Oba of Benin, Omo N’oba Erediauwa, on the death of his eldest wife, Queen Esther Erediauwa, said Governor Oshiomhole has continued to meet the expectation of the people of the state. Asked if he was still a member of the PDP, he said, “I am still a member of the PDP.” Commenting on directives of the APC leadership to its elected members at the National Assembly not to pass the 2014 budget, the Speaker said, “That directive is meant for APC lawmakers and not me.” He added that members of the House of Representatives had been calling on the Federal Government and security agencies to do everything possible to bring peace to Rivers State.#,J
