The Nigerian House of Reps members on Thursday exchange blows over leadership tussle leading to the disruption of plenary.
NigerianEye gathered that members of House of Representatives were shamefully fighting in presence of some secondary school students who are on an excursion to the National Assembly.
In the house of reps, lawmakers loyal to Yakubu Dogara, the speaker, have taken custody of the mace to pre-empt moves to seize it by anti-Dogara members.
Many APC lawmakers are still unhappy with Dogara and Bukola Saraki, senate president, for upstaging the party’s preferred candidates for their positions.
Fracas ensued few moments after Dogara commenced proceedings for the day.
The house was to decide on the remaining principal officers but some lawmakers disrupted the sitting and attempted to hijack the mace.
The APC leadership is proposing Femi Gbajabiamila, defeated by Dogara in the June 9 election, as house leader, Alhassan Doguwa deputy house leader, Mohammed Monguno chief whip and Pally Iriase deputy chip whip.
