Chairman, Council of Ulama of Jama’atu Izalatul Bidi’ah Wa Iqamatus Sunnah (JIBWIS), Sheik Sani Yahaya Jingir has called for a fresh election in the event of death or incapacitation of a Nigerian President.

The cleric opined that the present arrangement had opened an avenue where the president was exposed to uncertainty while his vice ‎was confident of becoming president whether Nigerians liked him or not.

Madness at its peak

Baba will not die

So we should jettisoned our Constitution

Some guys are dumb

A moronic sheik

Sheikh, you are wrong sir, Bubu derives his power from the constitution and as such, non of its provisions can be discarded.

Meanwhile, Bubu will only die at the appointed time and only God knows that time.

Long live The President and C-in-C
Long live The Fed Rep of Nigeria.

Thank you sir.

Jing just shut it, you are not making any sense.

.I guess as a cleric you are supposed to be learned and well informed

ironically what is coming out from this "cleric" illustrate the type of massage he is passing to his followers
.

Why... The constitution has been so before ur birth.. Also, for transition is why the space for vice president and deputy governor was created.. + how comes u are calling for this now. U must be a power monger... This country is really a z******

Yimu. Na ur own u day talk, waste another money to conduct election for underage voters again.

Wake up sir.

no, no,no,......I do not agree with this point. You have stated your argunent, but going in line with your point will lead financial wastage.
In this part of the world, we waste money continuously on election and of such the economical resources of the country will be waste on election by settling loyalists.
I am sorry to say this, but anyone can die anytime and if this is the case, there is no exception to those in power.

Shiek, do you mean will should conduct election three times in a year if death comes calling to those we call our president(s)?

Indeed. That is what happens where educated illiterates abound.

Abeg nah u write the constitution....this sheik wan cause another uproar

It's actually not a bad idea, there are countries with similar clauses in their constitution. Venezuela am sure of as an example.
