The Presidency believes the House has been infiltrated by the G-7 governors and the Kawu Baraje faction of the new Peoples Democratic Party ( New PDP).

According to The Nation, the Presidency has launched a counter-move to remove Aminu Tambuwal and other principal officers of the House of Representatives.

As part of the plot, the Bamanga Tukur-led PDP National Working Committee(NWC) yesterday called off its proposed meeting with the Speaker and the PDP caucus in the House at the last minute.

According to sources, the Presidency was uncomfortable with the alleged romance between the Speaker and the G-7 governors/ Kawu Baraje faction. It was gathered that the Presidency suspected that the G-7 and the Kawu Baraje faction planned to join forces with the opposition to reduce PDP into the minority party in the House.

Osun Defenders reported that the Presidency is acting on security reports on covert plan by the House to impeach President Goodluck Jonathan or make governance difficult for him because of the 2015 election.

A principal officer of the House said: “What is happening is that they have fears in the Villa but nobody is moving towards the impeachment of the President.

“They do not know that we have decided that the leadership will remain but should the G-7 governors defect to APC, the House Leader, Hon. Mulikat Adeola-Akande will seamlessly transform into a minority leader".
 
When there is conflict, it is wise to just smile and wave and not appear to be in bed with any side. The Speaker shouldn't have let slip his friendliness with the G-7 faction. LOL. I swear Nigerian politics is petty.
