On March 9, 2010, something happened
which given the state of Nigeria right now,
can best be described as the mother of all
ironies.
Late Yar'adua and Goodluck Jonathan
The Nigerian president in that year was
Umar Musa Yar'Adua and he had been sick
and away from the country for a while. The
then vice president, Goodluck Jonathan,
was made the acting president and the
entire country was confused about the
exact state of Yar'Adua's health.
Then an opposition leader, General
Muhammadu Buhari (rtd.), joined the
growing number of Nigerians to call for the
removal of President Umaru Musa Yar'Adua.According to the This Day article dated
March 9, 2010, President Buhari maintained
that the only viable option out of the
present political logjam in the country was
for the Executive Council of the Federation
(EXCOF) to declare the president
incapacitated and have him impeached.
Buhari, in 2010, said Nigeria should not
have been in the situation it was in the first
instance because the constitution had
made it clear on how an ailing president
could be succeeded.
Insisting on Yar'Adua's impeachment, he
said the refusal of the council to follow
constitutional provisions with regards to
the illness of the then president had thrown
Nigeria into crisis and he argued that the
1999 Constitution was clear on the issue of
succession when an incumbent president is
incapacitated.
Buhari, who is the president now, said all
this when he received members of the
National Unity Forum in Kaduna who paid
him a solidarity visit.
Goodluck Jonathan was not spared, as the
former military ruler criticized what he
described as "extra-constitutional
measures", the measures applied by the
National Assembly to empower Goodluck
Jonathan as the acting president when the
constitution already had a solution to the
problem.
Below were his words from March 2010:
"Political expediency won't remedy this kind
of problem because if the Executive Council
of the Federation had acted in accordance
with the constitution, by invoking the
necessary sections to declare the President
incapacitated, we would not have found
ourselves in this present situation.
"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 Executive Council of the Federation
must do the right thing because once we
start moving away from the constitution,
then we are inviting anarchy.”
Looking back at 2010, from 2017, it is
indeed ironical that President Buhari is now
receiving treatment in another country, and
he has placed his vice president, Yemi
Osinbajo, as the acting president?...karma exist believe it or not

have u wondered why it's only u and I, in here?

Oga, apart from Yar adua wife, no one else was allowed to see him...in Buhari's case, if u are important (which clearly, u aint, ) u may be permitted to visit him, and see that he walks, talks and laff by himself...

Good day..
