The Personal Assistant on Social Media to the President, Lauretta Onochie, has insisted that President Muhammadu Buhari will not take any drastic measures against the National Assembly.
In a statement on Facebook, Onochie said Buhari would not behave like former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo and Goodluck Jonathan amid the face-off between the executive and the legislature.
She said: “I understand when well-meaning Nigerians call on President Buhari to ‘descend’ on the National Assembly, the Senate in particular. After all, that’s what Presidents Jonathan and Obasanjo did.
“With all due respect, it would appear, and was very clear, even to the blind that what Nigeria had under President Obasanjo was democracy tinged with autocratic tendencies.
“President Buhari is a man of honour. He has vowed to give Nigerians a democratic leadership and he will not be pressured into breaking that vow.”
Onochie said Nigerians should descend on the Senate, instead of asking the President to do so.
“This idea of wanting our President to break constitutional provisions that recognise separation of powers is nothing but a total cop out on the side of Nigerians. We must have democracy in a democratic setting.
“Nigerians did it in January of 2012. That was when we recovered the executive arm of our government. The elections of 2015 merely confirmed that Nigerians actually recovered their government.”

Buhari cannot do nada
He was never meant to be president
All he wants is to look after his cows in daura... Nigerian politics is too complex for his brain to decipher
All this strain will soon send the old man back to London hospital
Let's all help this man, someones husband ,father, grandfather retire well in daura

Join me in saying
RESIGN NOW BABA

LOL ..The president will not descend on the Senate but want the masses to descend on the Senate

We want to also tell you that we don't want to descend on the NASS because we respect democracy and separation of powers.

Let's leave the matter like that

Both Baba obj and Gej act in the best interest of the nation at that time

I want to believe that pmb knows about all what saraki is doing all this while

What's this one saying? Buhari that has already go against the constitution is still playing saint?
Meanwhile, I was so hungry that I had to cook rice and I added igbo inside.
My Dad came back saw me eating, collected the food and finished all. To cut the story short, he's at the sitting room now taking selfie with remote
Should I tell my family members what happened?

The presidency said that both OBJ and GEJ are autocratic and did not act in the interest of the nation ..

PMB knows what Saraki is doing and he has said that Sarrki, I and other NLers should descend on him.

Count me out.

Lol does this woman thinks she can deceive anyone with that trash. If buhari make any silly move he ll be impeached. Anybody in doubt should ask him/herself to name just 5 powerful allies of Mr sick president. He is alone, sick and weak. His wife tried her best but it wasn't just enough

Mtcheew...!

Stale crap! In fact......

Hmmmm,

Madam Onochi, I am pro Buhari and I want Mr president to take action against these our useless senators or we will never forgive him for watching saraki and co tearing our future apart.


Enough is Enough.

People will die of hate towards PMB.if he acts,they call him tyrant,he doesn't they call him a weakling.
If PMB wants to descend on NASS he will do it and get away with it and nothing will happen,infact it is very easy. Simply deploy DSS to baricade national assembly and prevent pro Saraki group frm entering,then the house leader leads others into the chamber,somebody moves a motion for impeachment and then impeach him and let him go to court,b4 they finish perfecting judging his case,4 yrs don pass.
Saraki is the most disobedient and power hungry surbodinate i have ever seeing.he did same in Kwara with his father,now he has started same in NASS,anywhr u find him,he Is always a confusionist.

A president that allows a chronic criminal to head the senate, that allows thieves to surround him, that allows a man that wants to fight corruption to a stand still to be rejected,that only allowed d redeployment of indicted budget padding officials,that doesn't want to disclose how much has been wasted on his numerous medical trips abroad,while budgetting billions for Aso rock clinic etc.
Is that kind of person a president!
Is not that Buhari cannot do anything to the senate,rather he lacks d sincerity and mental capacity to do anything!!
Buhari shud resign for Osinbajo if he claims to actually love Nigeria because his continued presence as president is becoming irritating and nauseating.

True talk. See,me I no like this holy weh PMB they form. Na d holiness weh him form cause all these rubbish that he can work with any body. people like saraki need to be handle with hot iron hand for them to learn their lessons. I just hate his silence on this matter.

Irresponsible woman! Does Buhari still possess the political clout and presidential mein needed to go after the Senate? Buhari has since lost his prestige the moment he virtually begged to have Saraki visit him at the Villa more than 5 times before he went for medical vacation. He has virtually sold himself out as a weakling as far as the presidency is concerned and no amount of packaging by Lauretta can coverup the obvious. As it's now, any attempt to wield any stick against the Senate would lead to his impeachment and opprobrium. Presently, it's Buhari that needs the Senate and not the other way round.

From all indication and my net interaction with Lauretta i can confidently say that she TALKS before THINKING. She is unwittingly more dangerous to democracy than PMB, instead of making friends and supporters for PMB, she makes enemies for the President through unneccessary combative and combustive statements on daily basis.

Let him shw those guy what executive power is,no matter how rightly he behaves,he would be abused,so let him wield his hammer on them,especially Saraki and Melaye, he needs to deal with those guys or else,he wil be harrased so much to the point of bowing.How can a ruling party be acting like opposition,Saraki has turned himself to Lord over the party.
This are the things Tinubu saw and alerted PMB earlier enough but was acting Mr Democrat,Nigeria is not yet ripe for that kind of politics that PMB is playing

PMB as done worst than both OBJ and Jonathan put together if he allows the shenanigans, inpunity and corruption in the house especially in the Sinate to continue. Let PMB continu we are watching!!!

The vegetable knew what Nigerians want is decisive action against corruption and not mere double standard rule of law. Buhari, are u aware of hw many lives were lost to make sure u bcome the president? U promised us heaven n earth prior to the election! U pledged to provide critical infrastructures, 1#=1$ but now u r claiming rule of law. Okay, U want to claim rule of law on NASS's case but flouting court orders in the case of Kanu, Dasuki and Shiite leader? almost 1000 shiites and hundreds of harmless protesting Biafrans were killed but u never talked of rule of law. I regret campaigning for u. double standard bigot

Well said Madam.
Baba is a reformed democrats. You don't have to act wrongly to make things right.

The Three are different in Brain and Braun principles and practices.

What reasons have I to go against the Senate as suggested by this cocaine sniffing old bitch?

Nigerians would be stupid to heed her call, what happened to separation of powers, one of the pillars upon which our democracy is built? Is the Senate supposed to approve anything and anyone sent to it by the president? If the Senate has any reason to reject any proposal from the executive,it should do so and damn the old Buffon.

In the US, the Congress shut down Trump's move to repeal Obamacare, did the US presidency ask Americans to go against the Congress? Why must our own be different?

I have said it previously and I will keep saying it, Buhari and his party are gradually destroying our democracy and sacred institutions and Nigerians sit idly and watch them.

the only thing this woman have to offer is her pussy

Why are we black people so backward and primitive?
Why should we even think that the president can deal with the National Assembly of senators and representatives who are supposed to be a check and balance mechanism for avoiding a corrupt hypocrite becoming a dictator?
Are we so daft?
