Anyone who thinks a very sick Buhari would write to NASS, handing total power to a southerner is a political novice. I mean not when the north is unsure about the outcome of this latest trip.

Osinbanjo is Co-ordinator and Abba Kyari Presido.
Anyway what's the difference between now and June 2015 when Abba Kyari became our President?

All hail President Abba Kyari, otherwise known as Buhari's cousin.



Somebody wrote an article here about Buhari endorsing his bide in the event he doesn't run in 2017 and I knew instantly the naivety of the writer in thinking along that line.

It's a non issue. The president like Senator Lawan clearly showed made reference to section 145 of the Constitution which is grants all executive powers to the VP in the absence of the president.

The president is the coordinator of the FG in his absence the VP fills that role


Don't settle down in comfort yet I beg of you .......Acting president is not too difficult to insert ...Something like...The vide will act in the capacity as envisaged in the constitution......Using the word , coordinator means a whole lot ....Coordinator of the economy of the Jonathan era reported to somebody and our VP would have to report to somebody..... Buhari or whoever acts Wel, as hearing from Jim regularly


I pray the Jonathan scenario doesn't play out


A coordinator is a supervisor....A acting president is a temporal c in c

When Saraki called Osibanjo a mere commissioner, your wanted to stone him to death. Now you know better.

What else does the President and Governors do except administration which involves coordinating and managing the public affairs at Federal and State levels respectively?

Don't forget, the same National coordinator is signing 2017 budget and inaugurate new Ministers.

What else does the Acting President does other than coordinate the affairs of the nation.

MBuhari referred to section 145 of the constitution which is the section that empowers the Vice President to be Acting President. This to me settles the issue.

This is just much ado about nothing.

Simple ND straightforward!

Buhari is in enough problem with calls for his handover and all. Handing over to an "acting president" for the second time within months does not look good for him, hence the word play. I doubt he is clueless enough to let Abba Kyari have that power over the VP. If word gets out that is the case, it would cause a lot of problems and protests, which he is actively trying to avoid.
The man had to rush back to office when #whereis buhari was trending. He definitely does not want another Save Nigeria Group.


You have overlooked the configuration of the top echelon of the security network. This is planned and well scripted by the cabal. ..... That word , coordinator is not idle ....The need to explain it to Osinbanjo might arise if Buhari doesn't get back on his feet in good time.



The only way for Osinbanjo to act is to have the service chiefs removed but he dare not entertain that thought lest he be removed, unceremoniously.

It is better you ask a lawyer(legal practitioner) to explain it for you.

Coordinating is one of the functions of a President(in this case Acting President), not encompassing function.

Answer these to yourself:
Director
Supervisor

Actually, it's beyond Buhari what happens when he is unable to discharge his duties and he decides to notify the NASS to that effect.

The constitution has the final say and it clearly says Osinbajo will be acting president. It's not for Buhari to decide.

Osinbajo is a professor of law and he know what to do.

He was however ruled out of order by Mr. Saraki, after the Senate Leader, Ahmed Lawan, defended Mr. Buhari, citing Section 145 of the 1999 Constitution.

That section says, “Whenever the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the Vice-President as Acting President.”

So wetin be the problem, fellow Nigerians.What does an acting president do if not coordinate the affairs of a nation, is it different from presidence over the affairs of the same nation as done by the president.I do not know what Buhari was thinking with regards to his choice of words, It sounds evasive and unforthright though.But i am sure the constitution stated explicitly the role of the acting president.Chapter 6 article 145 states that . "Whenever the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the Vice-President as Acting President".I can only assume his function in that stead should be that of the president. He has legal rights to discharge all duties of the president in this repect.If 1 Abba kyari wan come talk something, im fit say no.I dont know if the issue of appending signatures to important documents is true.But i can only assume it is political, it might seem rebellious not to listen to Buhari.But which document go come just like that, the projects must have been ongoing. And they both must have discussed. If Osinbajo just carry document give Abu,dem na im be mumu, but it is sometimes important to tread in caution in such situation.



There are styles that pertains to Buhari that Osinbanjo might find repulsive and would want to suspend until he returns and resumes but now can't because a deliberate technical breach has been added to an otherwise straight and clear intentions of the relevant passage of the constitution relating to power transmission to a acting president.

If Buhari stays up to six months in London , we may begin to understand the very intent of that word, coordinator.....He might be allowed to fire some persons and operate up to certain levels but beyond might bring rupture to smooth running of government, after all he is only coordinating things for Buhari

Are you a dullard

Osinbajo is already acting as president.

Section 145 of the 1999 Constitution.

That section says, “Whenever the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the Vice-President as Acting President.”

'National Coordinator' is alien and it's not applicable in Nigeria's constitution

Understood bros, but i believe until the constitution is changed,it still holds.So i guess the main question is how mumuish is Osinbajo?
Re: Buhari Names Osinbajo 'Coordinator' In His Letter To Senate by Nobody: 9:08pm On May 09, 2017
Lol! He will never relinquish power. He will never give up power so that economic activities will not be hindered in his "beloved" country, Nigeria.

It funny how we the youth play politics with everything.....we're so confused that the political class doesn't need to instigate us before we act anymore.....what is so difficult in one getting to knw about the laws of the land The president has so far made history been the first to have ever obey the constitution on such an issue and yet we still complain....section 145 (1) of the 1999 constitution as amended have said it all.....the first paragraph of the said letter is in agreement with the constitution, every other part of the letter doesn't matter.....please Nigerian youth we need to wake up, a 39 yrs old jst won a presidential election and here we are confused over mere constitutional matter.....

The constitution is clear enough as Ahmed Lawan pointed out and Mao Ohuabunwa was ruled out of order.

Dont fall for the antics of extremely foolish, mischievous, pained and envious loooonatics from the yEast aka yEasterners!

Having found themselves nowhere in the polity, they resolve to gladden their hearts any means possible - right or wrong, sensible or insensible.

What a shame!!

The scales will soon fall off your eyes. You are suffering from Igbophobia.

Buhari s write up where he attempt to reframe the dictate of the Constitution by refering to the VP as cordinator of government instead of Acting president should not be seen as something to lose sleep over.

Despite being President, Buhari do not reserve the power to term the capacity in which the VP will operate in his absence.

The constitution of the federal republic already does that.

So let's make no mountain off a mole hill
