Following the withdrawal of security details formerly attached to the house of representatives Speaker, Aminu Tambuwal, 60 lawmakers belonging to the All Progressives Congress, APC now serve as his personal security.

Tambuwal's security details were withdrawn shortly after he defected from the ruling Peoples Democratic Party,PDP to the APC. The security details were withdrawn on the orders of Acting Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mr. Abba Suleiman.

PUNCH reported that the 60 APC lawmakers have been accompanying Tambuwal around Abuja to protect him against potential security threats. They sometimes form a security shield around the speaker to keep him safe.

Ahmad Ali,Chairman, House Committee on Justice, is one of the 60 lawmakers protecting Tambuwal, he told PUNCH, "We are covering him and we will continue to fight this illegality until it is quashed.

"We all went with him to the (Federal High) court today (Friday) to challenge the withdrawal of his security personnel".
