stanech: Noise makers don start again? Buhari will simply refuse to appoint a Minister for Petroleum ...... that is not against any law! He already has a N/Delta man as his NNPC GMD and doubles him as Minister of State for Petroleum. I suspect the reason some people want this Petroleum Minister by all means is that they are trying to cover-up somethings in that Ministry, which will be impossible without a supervising Minister ... or when that portfolio is on Buhari's table.

byrron: Wailing for too long seem to have made some people develop psychosis. They dont even seem to understand what a presidential system of government means. Furthermore they can't seem to have the ability to read and understand the Nigerian constitution and can only read meanings to sections of the constitution that has no bearing whatsoever to the topic under discussion. Please read section chapter 1, part 2, subsection 5(1) which states :- 5. (1) Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the executive powers of the Federation: (a) shall be vested in the President and may subject as aforesaid and to the provisions of any law made by the National Assembly, be exercised by him either directly or through the Vice-President and Ministers of the Government of the Federation or officers in the public service of the Federation; Tell me what you understand by the bolded, if you still possess the ability to read and comprehend. |

wirinet: Now that i have answered your questions, Can you please Tell me what you understand by these bolded constitutional sections Sec 138, Sec 147 (2), Sec 149, if you still possess the ability to read and comprehend. Can the President appoint himself as a Minister? This is the issue in discuss and not the wild goose chase you have embarked upon. Sadly you talked about my lack of comprehension which is an irony because the joke was on you. I had to break down those constitutional sections you sighted to a kindergarten level so you can comprehend what exactly it is and not what you thought it was. 1 Like |

free2ryhme: lol, have you exhausted your pseudo-knowledge so fast? Do not meddle into educational debates since you know that you are rationally and academically challenged and porous. Obj never appointed any minister of petroleum neither did he at any time appointed himself as the Minister of petroleum rather the Group managing directors of NNPC played those roles while reporting directly to OBJ that was why the then National Assembly couldn't do anything about it because he exercised his discretionary powers by not Making any ministerial appointment on that sector but he delegated some responsibilities of that sector to the Group MD's of NNPC which was still within the framework of the law. NL resident Touts like you just dabble into issues that are way to complex for your stupidity infested brain tissues and when you get schooled you resort to writing gibberish rather than learning. The problem with Buhari was his choice of word by saying he will be the minister of petroleum which is alien to the constitution but it is within his executive powers not to appoint a minister in any sector and can also delegate over-site functions on any sector which is exactly what obj did. FOOL! hope you now know the difference. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

layinks60: You seem to know much, so can you interpret what this means because it's right there in the constitution “By virtue of Section 138 of the Nigeria Constitution of 1999 as amended, the president shall not during the tenure of his office hold any other executive or paid emolument in any capacity whatsoever.” 1 Like |

byrron: If you are afflicted with myopia, let me increase the font so you can see it better; 5. (1) Subject to the provisions of this Constitution, the executive powers of the Federation: (a) shall be vested in the President and may subject as aforesaid and to the provisions of any law made by the National Assembly, be exercised by him either directly or through the Vice-President and Ministers of the Government of the Federation or officers in the public service of the Federation; Now if your problem is comprehension, then let me break it down for you; It means the executive powers of the Federation is vested in the president and he can exercise such powers directly or though the Vice - president and ministers or other public officers appointed by the president. I hope i have been of help. Sorry, i forgot; Now let me tell you my understanding of Sec 138, Sec 147 (2), Sec 149 of the Nigerian constitution; It simply means the President cannot hold the office of the President (which is chief executive of all executive positions) with another executive position (especially a paid one). It does not mean he cannot be president of OAU or ECOWAS. 1 Like |

wirinet: ARE YOU MENTALLY CHALLENGED, WHY ARE YOU AVOIDING INTERPRETING THESE SECTIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION TO ME? Sec 138, Sec 147 (2), Sec 149 I just lectured you by providing answers to all the questions you asked but you keep playing the ostrich by refusing to educate me on the constitutional sections above . I am sure you read those sections and you were so shocked with what is written there because it deflated your constipated reasoning by default which is the reason you keep avoiding it because it is really choking you .

Excuzeme: when you see evil condemn it. A president seeking to control oil revenues in Nigeria is evil. Nigeria is not Brunei. Nigeria is a democracy but Buhari seems to still take Nigeria as an emirate, with he president as the emir. Obasanjo succeeded in doing that because Nigerians were just emerging from long years of military dictatorship. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

If there is any Ministry Buhari is needed to assume its headship, it is the Ministry of Defense - given the menace of Boko. But the constitution does not allow Buhari to have any other job except being president of Nigeria. But if Buhari has common sense, he would not have sounded the idea of being petroleum minister - given that he ousted Jonathan from the Nigerdelta as president and has been tormenting Diezani also from the Nigerdelta. Does Buhari want to show that he is a conqueror of Nigerdelta? Does he not know that people must see him as being very arrogant? 1 Like 2 Shares |
