This is careless talk. Is not gonna be easy this time

IS NIGERIA NOW A FAILED STATE?

MISSING PRESIDENT

145 of 1999 Constitution:

"Whenever the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the Vice-President as Acting President."

When traveling in January, Gen Muhammadu Buhari PERSONALLY transmitted a letter to the National Assembly, notifying them of a SPECIFIC TEN DAYS VACATION, which ended on February 6, 2017. This letter was duly read and became part and parcel of the Votes and Proceedings of the National Assembly.

The president did not return on February 6 as he promised but he has purportedly taken an extended vacation, on ground of ill health, through a letter they was said to have been transmitted to the National Assembly. That "letter" has not been seen by anyone, in order to determine its authenticity and its real author.

The "letter" has not been READ ON THE FLOORS of either Chambers of the National Assembly, to make it part of its Votes and Proceedings. In effect, the legal capacity of Professor Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, ends midnight February 6, 2017.

Somehow, as if acting out a clever script, the Senate had hurriedly adjourned it sitting to February 24, ever before the "letter" for an extended vacation arrived. So legally, the "letter" is cooling somewhere in the National Assembly, just another letter, without any force of law. A letter transmitted to the National Assembly MUST BE READ at the plenary session to become binding.

So, by February 7, 2017, there will be no President or Acting President.

Prof Yemi Osinbajo, SAN, is from the Southern part of Nigeria.

MISSING CHIEF JUSTICE

Section 231(5) of 1999 Constitution:

"(5) Except on the recommendation of the National Judicial Council, an appointment pursuant to the provisions of subsection (4) of this section shall cease to have effect after the expiration of three months from the date of such appointment, and the President shall not re-appointment a person whose appointment has lapsed."

On November 9, 2016, the Hon Jus Mahmoud Mohammed, CJN, retired as the Chief Justice of Nigeria. The National Judicial Council recommended but the President ignored the choice of Hon Jus Walter Onnoghen, JSC, as Chief Justice of Nigeria, but proceeded to swear him in Acting capacity for three months. Until he traveled for his ten day vacation, the President did not forward the nomination of Hon Jus Walter Onnoghen to the Senate, for confirmation as substantive Chief Justice of Nigeria. Up until the time that the tenure of the Acting President will expire this night, he did not forward the name and so he cannot do so after tonight.

The tenure of the Acting CJN will lapse on February 10, 2017. As of this night, the NJC has not met to consider recommending Hon Jus Onnoghen for renewal as Acting CJN. The NJC cannot do this after February 6, 2017, as there will be no President or Acting President, to receive such recommendation.

Hon Jus Onnoghen is from the Southern part of Nigeria.

MISSING SENATE

The President of the Senate is facing multiple trials, bordering on failure to declare his assets. If he is convicted, he would have to step down as Senate President.

NOW THE KNOTTY QUESTIONS:

1. So where are we?
2. Has the Nigerian nation failed?
3. Are we being tricked or taken for a ride by some people?
4. How come the sudden adjournment of the Senate?
5. Was somebody aware prior to today that the president will not arrive this week?
6. Is this all a game? If so, who are the players and who are the spectators?
7. Who singed the letter for extended vacation?
8. In the absence of a substantive Chief Justice of Nigeria, what is the fate of the judiciary?
9. Who is that in charge of the affairs in Nigeria presently?
10. Must we all sit down and tolerate all these nonsense?

You may add your own questions and keep adding them until we get the answers.

Nigeria we hail thee!

GOD BLESS HER CITIZENS....

Osinbajo ti take over, even if na acting capacity.
Let us hope things go faster before Buhari returns from his sick leave.

mesoprogress:
Osinbajo will need as much southerners as possible to counteract Buhari's fulani muslim filled cabinet. The same ediots that keep quiet when Christians are subjugated in the North, killed mindlessly without any protection. I have lost faith in Fulanis, nobody will ever vote them again except their brothers. Northern votes will always be shared between Christians and Fulanis, in the south here they get zero vote. I hope Yorubas have learnt their lessons once and for all.

Even though South fight one another, they regroup when they are needed most.

Southern Nigeria's mumu don do

9jakohai:


It was Buhari who nominated the guy initially.

olaolulazio:
Our able president!

Akainzo:


Your ilk are so bigoted that you immediately look for ethnic or religious connotation in happenings.

So it is the Yorubas that should learn their lessons simply because they voted along the same lines with the Notherners, but the South Easterners and South South that have been perennial Hausa companions since the 1959 elections are now to be praised abi? As usual with you guys, you assume history started in 2010.

BTW, the cabinet of the present Government has a larger percentage of Christians, that is a verifiable.

cktheluckyman:


no dear The sw will be paid back in their own coins.You don't preach southern unity only when it suits you

9jakohai:


Our concern should not be about tribe, but whether the new CJN can do the job.

Leave tribalism for the dustbin

Reptyle:
Do you seriously think that the Acting President will take this kind of major decision without clearing with the President and getting his approval first?

deflover:



Same mumu talk that put all d security heads in the hands of northerners
Keep the mumu flag flying
So southerners can't do it better
In order to sound witty
You are sounding lame

Max24:

Then u will stay in one place for a long time. You heard what KANU Orji said. You better play the politics right instead of who offended u yesterday but need still. Even Jesus said agree quickly with ur adversary while on d way to d judge . My 5cents.

This is a routine decision based on existing seniority rules and the man was acting CJ already.

louqas:


Ignorant thinking . Even if everybody in the north votes for a particular candidate and every southerners votes for a candidate, the northern candidate will win ........... in other words the south can't do it alone. Why do you think even PDP zoned their presidential candidate to the north. Wake up the northerner is not your enemy but partner in progress. If you think Yorubas regret voting PMB you are wrong. The only people who are now regretting NOT voting for PMB are the easterners
