I am really ashamed at the kinds of comments on this forum. It seems they are only inspired by resentment of the Ijaw groups rather than by any logic in response to the group's demands. Nigeria may never move forward if we continue to treat national issues purely out of ethnic or partisan sentiments.

I expect commenters to question the correctness of the claim of these groups: if the constitution actually says the president may not hold another office, why can't we ask him to abide by the constitution? If these guys are misquoting the constitution then we must correct them.

We forget also that this is a democracy. People have a right to air their views. Insulting people for airing their constitutional views is a very primitive act and we need to desist from it.

[quote author=abbey621 post=38783845]Ijaw Ijaw Ijaw, must you people expose una sef all the time? One would think out of all the ethnic tribes in Nigeria right now, the Ijaws would be the last to ever say a word about mismanagement at the Executive branch of government. Almost 6 years of GEJ, the Ijaw community should be a paradise by now and yet nothing to show for it.....SHAME angry angry angry

Clam down young man! You dont built a paradise in six years, how many has been built in your place in six year? How many has Obj built in his home town otta in ogun state, how many has the past military heads of state or any prominent Government office holder in your locality built... Just shut the Gutters when you dont have nothing to say. We are just saying our mind that a PMB should maintain only one office as the president not a minister.. We don elect him(though i dnt vote 4 him) to be a minister but rather a President!

The constitution allows him to. Go and find out!

The onus of proof is on u to provide the constitutional sections that grants him the power's of appointing himself a minister.

While u are on it, you can self educate yourself with these sections of the constitution:
Sec 138, Sec 147 (2), Sec 149 and if you don't like what is written on those sections, u are absolutely free to erase those sections from ur own personal copy of the constitution.

Re: Buhari Can’t Double President, Petroleum Minister – Ijaw Groups by longayink: 2:23pm On Oct 08, 2015
“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.”

It is clear from the above that the Office of Petroleum Minister has emolument to it. So a President cannot go to occupy the office of the petroleum minister.

THE NASS THAT MAKES LAWS, PLEASE DO NOT FAIL NIGERIANS ON THIS. THAT OBJ WAS PRESIDENT AND PETROLEUM MINISTER IS NOT AN EXCUSE. STOP EVIL FROM PERPETUATING ITSELF. STOP BUHARI EVER BECOMING PETROLEUM MINISTER WHILE SERVING AS PRESIDENT.

Where was this silly useless group then.

Or when OBJ when Obj doubled as a minister and President....they were also alseep then.


The correct question should be, where were animals like you to defend your useless constitution when OBJ doubled as minister and president?

Why don't you quietly check out the constitution and find out if they are saying the truth or not, instead of trying to defend corruption with another corruption..

Sometimes I just wonder if some of you were formed by spermsss or just urine.

Animal.

Someone is really not advising Buhari right.

Unless he's attempting to rewrite section 138 of the constitution, then he needs to find another minister from ND region or the woman/man with the most qualified certificate.

An igbo women, Allison Madueke, siphoned the ND oil money in her personal account. I would advise Buahri to appoint a ND man/woman so that ND will have no one else to blame but their son.

The National Assembly during OBJ era was a rubber stamp as they allowed him to rubbish the Constitution and declared himself minister o petroleum. They did set a bad precedent; the current one may do same.

No nation ever progressed where a few individuals or groups are superior to the Constitution of the land.

Blacks are still far behind.....I'm sorry.

First, there what we call precedence. It is not the first time such is happening. That action was taken because he means well. Secondly, he is not going to collect a dime extra. He saves the country huge amount that would have been spent on the minister and his retinues. I feel he should be commended not crucified.

The constitution stop him from holding a post on which he is paid salary or emoluments. This is to stop a President from being on board of companies to prevent conflict of interest. As long as Buhari will not be paid another salary as Minister of Petroleum, he can hold both positions
