Which is more powerful? Word or law.

As far as PMB decided to transmit a letter to the NASS that he'll unavailable to govern, Osinbajo automatically became Acting President.

That's the constitution.

The folk you mentioned is a nonentity whose opinion doesnt count anytime anyday.
Yes, the law is more powerful. But how powerful is 'Nigerian law'? We have a very comprehensive constitution, so large and voluminous, the people in power understand how to manipulate it and re-interpret a well interpreted law to suite their selfish interest.
Bro, we are both Nigerians, let's not pretend Buhari has really been in charge. I am forever in support of any one that can lead us aright, and now I see such man in Osinbajo and that's all that matters.

Dies it really matter? When the president becomes totally incapacitated the vice president will take over as per the requirements of the constitution.

If the northern cabal wants to commit harakiri, Let them be our guest, I'll even lend them the sword.

Buhari is coordinating the activities of the country and now he ask Osinbanjo to coordinate on his behalf.

The section of the constitution quoted is enough to tell you what the president meant. What is so hard 2 understand.

It is "common synonym" that puts money in the pocket of lawyers and Judges...: na "common synonym" dey create lacuna for constitution.
This "common synonym" can make Military Chiefs disobey his order and will have to be cleared by the "supreme court"

We Yorubas know what to do at the right time.

If we could fight to enthrone GEJ during the Yar'Adua/GEJ impasse, how shall we not have our very own take what is due to him?

Dont be bothered, my brother. God is in control.

We overcame IBB and Abacha, bloody civilians (cabal) wont pose any challenge to us.

BabaRamota1980:
In a normal society where the rule of law is observed, respected and accorded honor...YES, the statute of Law is sufficient.

Nigeria is a lawless country and everybody violates the constitution and do contrary to the letters of its statutes.

Go back to 1979. UPN clearly won the Presidential election but NPN subverted the constitution and redefined 2/3rd majority and took away the people's mandate.

Go to 1983. Abiola clearly won and the constitution was clear about what should happen next....but again, the statutes were subverted and the mandate and national conscience again stolen.

If we were lawful and dignified by now Buhari should have been asked to hand over power to his VP. What else do we need to declare him incapacitated, his coffin?

The use of "coordinating" is a hook. It is calculated move to keep Buhari perpetually in power as long he has breathe in him, even if he is condemned to sick bed terminally. In the event he dies, the North will raise objection to succession and call for election. In that scenario, what can we do? Are we going to expect them to respect and honor section 145 (1) of 199 constitution? ....and if they don't, then what? They didnt in 79 or 83, how is 2017 or 2018 going to be different?

Drop this idealism of a constituted sovereingty, its bs, Nigeria is a syndicate for lootocracy, not a constituted nation. You hear me?



How come you neatly missed Yar'Adua death and handover of power to GEJ. Selected data to support your point? You can remember back 1979 and 1983 but forget 2010. We understand

Liar, President Buhari did not handover to you, but to the Presidency. According to the letter read on the senate floor, you are nothing but a mere coordinator.
The Senate led by the senate president called you a mere commissioner, now the executive led by the president termed you a mere coordinator. That means you are not even the VP. So stop lying and acting like if you are remotely in charge.

you are so dumb,have u bothered to check the meaning of "Coordinate" in the dictionary. do so and stop showing foolishness.

Anuofia!!! go and buy sense.

A coordinator is a Person of equal status with others so the VP cannot make appointments or sack anybody while the President is awayHe cannot discipline any erring minister. He is limited in policy decisions, as a coordinator, he has no power of control over the "Cabal" to whom the president has handed over power

Too many blunders in this government.When Ngozi Okonjo Iweala was made finance minister and coordinating minister of the economy the then ACN/APC lai Mohammed shouted on top of his voice but see the same trend being followed.
However, am seeing beyond this letter and such lacuna was deliberately inserted to cause confusion in case Buhari doesn't come back alive.
I pray for God's will to always prevail

Seriously I don't know why some Nigerians are like this. Like someone posted on Facebook and I quote.. .

I don't understand this issue about Coordinating Vice President. The section that empowers Osinbajo as Acting President has already been mentioned.

NIGERIANS LIKE MAKING DRAMA OUT OF EVERYTHING.
I don't understand it too, it is stated clearly in the letter.
or where Nigerians expecting him to say "The vice president will 'acting-president' or 'act-president' the af......."
Those same morons will be calaiming ENGLISH PROs and correcting others.

I seriously blame the senator who raised this in the first place. I can't remember the last time this senator sponsored a bill on the floor of the senate, look at his Abia state, even concerning the Igbo people as a whole, what has he done even for his senatorial district? It is a trivial issue like this that he is speaking up on. What sense does it even make to him? A letter or a constitution, which was duly cited, which on is superior?
Sighs....

After seeing "in compliance with the constitution" The dumb Senator from the East still went ahead to raise a point of order. Politicians from that region should ordinarily be hawking Okpa on the street. Before you quote me kindly expatiate on the function of a president..
