Abba-aji Gives Conditions For Jonathan To Take Over by MiKenny(f): 11:38am On Dec 16, 2009
President Umaru Yar‘Adua will have no problem transferring power to Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan if his doctors say that he is staying longer in hospital, his Special Adviser on National Assembly Matters, Senator Mohammed Abba Aji, has declared.
Meantime, the Attorney-General of the Federation, Chief Michael Kaase Aondoakaa (SAN), also said yesterday that so far President Yar’Adua is still breathing, nobody can stop him from governing the country even on his sick bed except and until he himself declares that he is no longer fit to exercise his presidential powers.
Abba-Aji, who spoke yesterday, also flayed insinuations of an imminent end of the Yar‘Adua presidency.

He assured that the President would soon be in good health and be ready for a second term.

He, nevertheless, called for prayers for the President from all Nigerians who, he urged, should pray for him as if they were praying for their fathers.

The Presidential Adviser spoke against the background of speculations in Abuja, yesterday, that a letter of transfer of authority to Vice-President Jonathan has been directed to the National Assembly.

While denying the existence of such letter, Abba-Aji, in a telephone interview, said the President would have no problem writing such a letter if and when he felt the situation of his health demanded it.

“When he assesses that he will stay long, I believe he will send the letter and it depends on his discussion with his doctors. If the doctors say he will stay long, the Yar`Adua I know will send the letter and, if it is just a few more weeks, I think there will be no problem,’’ he said.

Yar’Adua ‘ll do second term— Abba Aji

Declaring that the Yar‘Adua presidency would stretch out to the end of a second term in 2015, he said: “What most people do not know is that Yar‘Adua will come back. He has done it before, when he was governor. He was away for six months and the death wishers did the same thing when he was governor and he returned and he did not only return to continue his job as governor, he went on to have a second term and completed the second term successfully and went on to contest the presidency of this country and won.

“He will definitely return. Yar`Adua is a man with many lives, he will come back, he will come and complete his first term and he will re-contest. So, read my lips, he will come back a very healthy person and he will carry on with his work, complete his tenure and he will contest for a second term.”

So Yar'Adua was absent for a whole 6months when he was governor.
Damn. We're in for some shocking times ahead.
