My stand is that the corrupt Speaker Dogara, Lasun, Doguwa & Ogor must listen to Nigerians, reconvene the house immediately and step aside

No external forces in this matter, if there are any, they deserve commendation for sponsoring a struggle to wipe out corruption in the House

In any case, are the external forces responsible for the massive theft and abuse of office by Speaker Dogara and the 12 other members?
