President Buhari on March 9  2010 told the National Assembly to impeach late Umaru Musa Yar'Adua when he was sick.According to him the only solution to the then present political uncertainty in the country was for the National Assembly to set machineries in motion for the impeachment of ailing President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua. He said this while addressing members of the National Unity Forum (NUF) which had visited him in Kaduna.

The forum led by Alhaji Maigida Musa Abdu had visited top northern leaders to seek their opinions on how best to handle the Yar'Adua mess and at the same time ensuring that the region does not lose out completely in the power equation, especially as the country approaches 2011.

According to Buhari,the Federal Executive Council must save the nation from the current agony by declaring the president incapacitated to pave the way for his impeachment.

He further argued that Nigeria as a nation, should not have been in the present situation if the provisions of the constitution were respected by the leadership of the country, insisting that the constitution has specific provisions on how an ailing president could be succeeded, even as he noted that the refusal by the FEC to respect and apply the constitutional provisions had led to the present crisis in the country.

In an apparent reference to the resolution passed by the National Assembly, which empowered Goodluck Jonathan to function as an acting president, Buhari said it was wrong to introduce extra-constitutional measures to tackle problems already addressed by the constitution.

He said....

'As you can see, adopting extra-constitutional measures have not addressed the problem. If it had, we would not have been subjected to the raging debates and controversy going on. So we must go back to the constitution. The exco must do the right thing because once we start moving away from the constitution, then we are inviting anarchy'.

Politicians eeeh!

Lai will soon deny this...

The problem with all these discoveries is that they amount to nothing until the Senate and the opposition wake up and activate the necessary provisions for karma to swing into action! Yes, APC is chock full of lying hypocrites and bastards but that doesn't address the problem! Action does and PDP has fůckïng gone to sleep!

The man mouth was too loose then

yar' Adua took a medical leave without handing over powers to Jonathan, that was what generated controversies... its obvious the illiterate president as u always call him is smarter than so called educated Nairalanders...

What goes up will surely come down....












#MySignatureMyBusiness

this current APC and its members were only good in politics of hate and bitterness when they were in the opposition.

always making making wild and unverifiable allegations.

..

Karma has always been a legendary biitch.

You are a confirmed Zombie. Please read the article with your clear eyes before you start disgracing yourself. When PMB said that Yaradua should be impeached, GEJ was already an acting president just like Osinbajo is acting now. PMB asked the Senate to impeached Yaradua on the basis of his health status and long absence from duty. I voted for PMB and wish him quick recovery. But if his health get worse or Nigerians do not know
about his health status and is unable to resume duty in three month time, The constitution is clear. The FEC can declare him unfit and remove him.If the FEC refuse to do this, the Senate can remove the president on health ground. While we pray for PMB, we should also be conscious of the fact that Nigeria is greater than PMB.

They say whenever "KARMA" wants to visit, it never misses address, that's Buhari & APC's case now..


NASS Should Do The Needful

my number 1 problem with apc n this government is HYPOCRISY

Karma ambiguously mean what goes around comes around. Let's simplify it, It means, what you say about others in same words and measures will be said about you.

Karma is definitely Nigerian Politics

In 2019, the new government will also heap excessive blames on the Buhari's Kakistocratic government.

According to Fashola: Batueyo are the ones managing our economy

Why is nature so unfair to Buhari?

If anything, this shows Bahari is in no way an ethnoreligious bigot as the Peoples Demonic Party would want Nigerians to believe.

Ok na

Buhari lives on.
He will soon be back to continue till 2023.

Ignorance is an incurable disease indeed.

Buhari's position was based on Yar'Adua's failure to transfer power to his then deputy which was a clear breach of the constitution.

In his case, there is no vacuum in governance as he did the constitutional thing by transferring power to his vice.

Make una go school, una no gree.

Did Yar'Adua transfer power officially to GEJ? No, he didn't.

Is Buhari incapacitated as Yar'Adua was? No.

Make una wail with sense abeg.

Payback is a b*itch and her stripper name is Karma!!

Wetin person no go see for NL, which one is auto correcting the word "b*tch" to "Dam"......... I dnt agree thar both words are synonyms.

Karma is APC Val

who else has noticed that all the people in these government seems to be hunted by their past actions as opposition.

With the uncertainties ,deceit,bigotry and shamelessness with which this nation is being ruled it will take special divine intervention and great mental revolution for us to reach the promised land

Karma is from Katsina state

11th commandment: never waste time and energy arguing with a wailer, they will always wail.

Buhari did the right thing by appropriately handing over to the constitutionally designated person.

In the case of Yara'Dua he just disappeared without informing Nigerians and handing over, thuus throwing the country into unnecessary anxiety and confusion.

He was right to call on the Nass to intervene, if need be, impeach him.

And u are a confirmed slowpoke, I Dont talk issus with kids who were still leaking pocho when things were happening, i can only educate u fool...Jonathan was not in acting capacity mr. Man and it is foolish of u to compare the time yaradua was away and the time PMB is away so far...if ur village people did not curse u, u should know that PMB is still operating within his legal boundaries...Leave with it till 2023, if it pain u too much.... hug a transformer close to u ...I want to assure u one thing"U will die before PMB"

At the right time, the constitution will take its course.
