the president has forgotten he is now in class two, which makes it mandatory to buy class two books

Guy u wicked ooo. U mean he is still using pry1 books?

Well maybe because he was promoted illegally.

When a National conference was held and constitution review took place, you were shitting over your body abusing GEJ all about. Now the consequences of your daft actions

National Confrence without any legal backing by an ACT of the National assembly is a complete waste of our resources .. and abusing people online only shows the failure of those responsible in training you

Princedapace:


lol, Nigerians cant rule them selves, same as black race. It is a bitter pill for us to swallow. In the next 50 years, check out naija, it would be worse. The country gets worse each year.

i strongly disagree , we can rule ourselves only that its not yet time for Black African Civilisation, we are Only copying European Civilization which is clearly making us look like something else, when african civilization would come i really dont know but am hopeful, afterall Egyptians once had their own civilization

Fake anti-corruption crusader sees nothing wrong in that.

Fake anti-corruption crusader sees nothing wrong in that.I think it is high time every citizen is armed with Nigerian constitution so that we can know where to rise up and speak out.

Its not the fault of the constitution abeg. Yes we need to tailor the constitution to our peculiar needs but in this case the person causing the vacuum is the president himself.

He had 4yrs to choose his aids for a 2nd term and yet he cannot. Well am not surprised for someone who had contested for 4times before becoming president still took 6months to form his cabinet in his first term.

If we had an intelligent person at helms most of these type of unnecessary complications will not arise at all.

Its a shame!

i partially agree buhari has some blames, but then again Only the senate can confirm his Nomination of appointment, and we all know Senate just got leaders, the havent even formed commitees... and Buhari cant be juggling press releases and government bureaucracy all alone

This is a lame excuse for someone who used 6months to pick his cabinet the first time. Was the NASS unavailable for 6months in his first term.

Again, he won the election about about 2months ago what has he been doing. At least name or reappoint your immediate aides and wait for the senate to confirm them, atleast it sends a message of him trying to be proactive.

If the names are already in public space it will put pressure on the senate to do the needful.

Judges Now Afraid To Perform Their Duties, Says NBA President

Paul Usoro, president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), says judges in the country are afraid to perform their duties as expected due to fear and intimidation from the executive arm of government.

He spoke while delivering an address at the association’s national executive committee (NEC) meeting, which held at the NBA secretariat in Abuja, on Thursday.

Usoro also spoke about the high level of insecurity and poor state of the rule of law in the country.

He expressed worry over the “intimidation of judges by members of the executive arm and security operatives”, saying that judges now “operate under an oppressive and pervasive climate of fear and insecurity.”

“Our Jjudges are threatened, intimidated and blackmailed mostly by the executive arms of government and their agencies both at the federal and state levels,” he said.

“Our judges cannot deliver justice under a climate of fear and intimidation. Justice thrives where and when there is an independent judiciary. There can be no such independence when there is no security of tenure for our Judges. There can be no independence of the judiciary when our judges are intimidated, threatened and blackmailed by state agencies and their officials.

“There can be no independence of the judiciary when our judges are actively coerced by state officials to think and reason only in the manner that those officials and, presumably, government want them to think.”

The senior advocate of Nigeria also lamented over how some members of the association were victims of the high rate of insecurity in the country.

“My dear colleagues, as you would observe, I have given you three illustrative instances of the insecurity that pervades our land from the three NBA Nigerian Zones – East, West and North – and that, by itself, makes the point that no part of our country is safe,” he said.

“No region is safe, and no tribe is safe. No one indeed is safe. And yet, we have governments in place, at the federal, state and local government levels and the primary business of governments is the protection of lives and property. Indeed, without security of lives and property, everything else grinds to a halt.”

He called on the federal government to address the security challenges in the country and urged public officials to adhere to the rule of law.

I differ with Falana on the issue of the Presidential Aides, the aides are personal appointees of the President and their tenure elapses either along with his or when he decides to terminate their appointments.

Presidential aides and SGF do not require ratification or consent of NASS and thus their tenure does not expire except if the tenure of their Principal expires. Ministers are a different kettle altogether as the constitution is clear as to their tenure.

On the case of SGF and the Presidential aides, the learned luminary's position is not supported in law.

Scammer

Nothing like that will ever come bro.. blacks were never designed to rule or dominate. Egyptian civilization came but was conquered.

now that judiciary and legislative is in his pocket, expect more of abuse of law from that suya opportune mallam

So within apc camp and even the presidency including Osibande no one was clever enough to interprets the constitution to the president

Very interesting indeed. I'm sure apc bollocks will started attacking this man now and start calling him all kinds of names.

Keep quiet,the appointees are serving at the pleasure of the President,interim appointees don’t need confirmation from the Senate,President Buhari is only copying his Good Friend Donald Trump who says he prefers interim appointees over those confirmed by the Senate,instead of wasting time with those democratic Babylonians Nancy Pelosi,and Chuck Schumer in the Senate,be there dreaming of confirmation,least you forget Prof Osinbajo is a Constitutional lawyer.

Same way you were making noise before President Buhari and his cartel got rid of former CJ onnoghen?

What about the bills passed by the 8th Assembly that Buhari suddenly started signing in this 9th Assembly?

Are they legal laws?

What is the view of the law about them?

You don't understand what they are saying?

Donald Trump has a master's degree and ran businesses for years before he became president. He certainly understands the difference between appointment (whether temporary or non-temporary) and non appointment.

In other words, Falana is saying that Buhari has not reappointed any of his aides, whether temporarily or permanently.Their tenure ended when Buhari's own tenure ended on May 28. And without reappointment, even for a day, they might be acting illegally. They don't have a perpetual tenure.

Do you understand?

Blablabla blurblur blobloblo thrash. The most useless and unintelligent comment of 2019.

Good night. Get well soon. Ndoooh, sorry ehn....pele.

Intresting.... this is what happens when we just pick up other peoples constitution and make it ours without even understanding it, No constituitional confrence, no input from the people who would end up using the law., other attempts at amendments by the senate has been flawed one way or the other.

A constituition that create vacum in governace couple of hours before swearing in, same way nothing is stated incase Governor Elects dies before swearing.

State Governor Elects also announcing Apoinments before inuaguration of state assembly, or sacking LGA Boss unilateral without recourse to the assemblies

Zombie step 1 blames the constitution

phenom666:
All this hungry Human right fighter, who send you to fight.


Better find something meaningful and be doing, as nobody send you.

Zombie step 2 attack the messenger

Buhari appointed everyone late, so the 4yrs is not over yet!
Falana just trying to be busy.
