Whenever I hear the name Tambuwal, all I think of is a man who is untrustworthy, power-hungry and a green snake under green grass. Forget about the soft-looking mien he displays in public. He connived with some powerful people from the south west to deny the Yorubas a place in this government. The speakership position (No.4 position in this country) belongs to the SW. But some people, who think they can think for and on behalf of the Yorubas, manipulated the process, schemed out the SW and handed the slot to the man of the moment. This same fence sitter for three years, enjoy the gains of the office of the speakership and finally showed where he belongs. Honourably, he should have resigned from that post. Morally, he should have known that he is no more upright in the eyes of the people to retain the post but then HONOURABLE and MORALITY are two words that could hardly be found in the dictionary of the political class. GEJ, if he is truly merits the stateman status given to him by the great Iku Baba yeye of my hometown, should have allowed the chameleon to end his tenure without bringing much wahala into the political terrain.
