Who Becomes The President When The Elected President Dies by mavelo: 6:35pm On Dec 20, 2014 |
Please can someone tell me who becomes the next president if the presidential flag bearer dies before or after the election(i.e before the swearing-in) and his party assuming APC wins the election, because that of PDP(incumbent) is clear on who becomes the president. |

mavelo:The Vice President elect will become the President. It happened in Brazil in 1985 when President-elect Tancredo Neves took ill before his swearing in. José Sarney was sworn in as acting President and later, President when Neves died. I think Nigerian electoral law also allows for the postponement of the election if one candidate dies before the election to enable his party select a replacement. But hopefully no one will die before May 29 2015. We don't need all the hullabaloo that Yar' Adua's death threw up. |
