Nice comment.

But can you not pass it without the "southerners" word?

I wonder what divisive elements like you are turning this country into.

You may substitute "southerners " with Liepods or flatinoes. Or wailing wailers. Mao Ohuabunwa

Buhari is coordinating the activities of the country and now he ask Osinbanjo to coordinate on his behalf.

The section of the constitution quoted is enough to tell you what the president meant. What is so hard 2 understand.
Nigerians& their problems,pls either he's been referred 2 as a coordintor or vp,i don't think any issue shld b raised. Pmb coordinated d government when he was in the country,buh now that he is on an indefinate stay in the uk,automatically,d mantle has been handled over to his vice& he coordinates the government in Pmb's absence;very simple.

Seriously I don't know why some Nigerians are like this. Like someone posted on Facebook and I quote.. .

I don't understand this issue about Coordinating Vice President. The section that empowers Osinbajo as Acting President has already been mentioned.

NIGERIANS LIKE MAKING DRAMA OUT OF EVERYTHING.


Bro even in that letter there's nothing like Coordinating vice President, Mr President said While i am away, Vice President will coordinate the activities of the Government.. In the case Mr President first recognizes his VP and ask him to continue..


Well the questions we need to ask those wailing zombie is what is the job of the President in the first place if not to coordinate the affair of the Government.. English can make someone useless..


No kind wailing wailers jare..

The VP shows class. Only petty minds dwell perpetually on petty issues. I support his candidacy if he later aspires to the presidency.

Bro, I keep copying some of your nairaland posts to my facebook timeline. I can recall we've had contrary opinions on a particular thread prior to the 2015 general elections, you have so far been the most objective nairalander I have seen. Keep it up bro!
Objectivism shud be d guilding principle for anyone that wishes this country good.
I don't shy away from proclaiming I av passionately supported Buhari since his contest with Yar'Adua in 2007,blived and still bliv he has d capacity to deliver,but I cannot spare him all d knocks wen I don't see that capacity,wen he allows people he has constitutional authority and powers over,using him like a fool and wen he derails from d objectives and promises that made many of us go against all manner of challenges to see him installed.D same objective way we criticized GEJ,is d same way we wud scrutinize and analyse his every action/inaction.

You called that common 'synonym'? Are you a newcomer? or a learner of Nigerian politics? That synonym is all the cabal need to relegate Osibanjo.

Why all these nonsensical hullabaloo?

The constitution is very clear.

145. 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.

Buhari and whoever prepared the letter tried to be smart by half. If they had copied d previous letter. Acting President was clearly written there. Why start playing with words if there were no ulterior intentions? Thank God we get constitution.

Liar, President Buhari did not handover to you, but to the Presidency. According to the letter read on the senate floor, you are nothing but a mere coordinator.
The Senate led by the senate president called you a mere commissioner, now the executive led by the president termed you a mere coordinator. That means you are not even the VP. So stop lying and acting like if you are remotely in charge.

Is it your father that will sign the budget into law?

Check the constitution, there is no word such as 'coordinating'. It's a game of words by the cabal carefully selected for Buhari, cause they knew that would be the only way for them to rein him in. Then there would be numerous court cases for the interpretation of that clause, and the government would be a stand still. Thank God the senate saved us that stress. Pls sincerely ask yourself: (1) Why did the cabal/ the President's handlers delay till now before they allowed him to travel for treatment? (2) Did Buhari write the letter of transmission of power by himself?
This is Pure and Applied Politics!

Thank God the president was still the one who quoted the section of the constitution to make reference not senators. So look 4 other lies.

I'm sure he didn't write the letter himself, the cabal did. Buhari only had to sign it.

This is not what I am talking on. The section of the constitution I said. The section was purely for transfer of power from the president to someone that can act. English does not matter but the section quoted.

Am not changing that post, if you're not satisfied with it then go hang yourself.


I always addressed issues the way they are straight and I don't care what you say or how you feel.

For every action there must be an equal and opposite reaction
Looking for the most shameless region in West Africa? We Southerners are number one. We condemn and generalize over others while we cover up or praise the same action when carried out by our people.

Which is more powerful? Word or law.

As far as PMB decided to transmit a letter to the NASS that he'll unavailable to govern, Osinbajo automatically became Acting President.

That's the constitution.

The folk you mentioned is a nonentity whose opinion doesnt count anytime anyday.

Yes, I understand you. But it was not a mere use of English that the word 'Coordinating' appeared. There's a spirit behind it: a clause to make the Chief of Staff et all still very relevant under Osinbajo 'actingness'
