There was a free-for-all at the House of Representatives on Wednesday over the choice of Minority leader. Plenary turned rowdy after the Speaker of the House, Femi Gbajabiamila decided to abandon a letter by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) nominating Kingsley Chinda as Minority Leader.
The speaker, Femi Gbajabiamila, went ahead to announce Ndidi Elumelu as Minority Leader culminating in a protest by members of the main opposition PDP.
Although Elumelu is also a PDP member, the matter got complicated when an unidentified lawmaker grabbed the mace of the lower chamber, attempting to seize it.
