The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has alleged that the Acting-President, Yemi Osinbajo, is unable to carry out all the functions of the President in spite of fulfilling the conditions of section 145 of the 1999 Constitution which bestows on him the full powers of the President.

It could be recalled that Femi Adesina, the Special Adviser to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, had told Nigerians that his principal left the country on May 7th, 2017 to undergo further medical check-up in London, UK, and subsequently transmitted letters to both chambers of the National Assembly for Osinbajo to act as president pending his return.

However, in a terse statement issued by its National Publicity Secretary, Dayo Adeyeye, the PDP claimed that the absence of the President was hampering governance as the Acting-President was unable to fully perform the role of the President.

It further demands that the true state of President Buhari’s health challenges be publicly made known in the interest of Nigeria’s democracy and posterity, noting that it’s been over 90 days since he President left the country.

The statement reads: “Today, August 5, 2017 is exactly 90 days since President Muhammadu Buhari left Nigeria to the U.K on medical vacation. President Muhammadu Buhari left on the 17 May, 2017

“His protracted medical vacation is hampering governance as Acting-President, Yemi Osinbajo, has not been able to carry out all the functions of the President


“For the sake of Nigeria’s democracy and posterity, we again demand to know the true state of President Buhari’s health challenges

“Nigeria belongs to all of us and we must work together to protect this country and our hard earned democracy.”

90 days and counting, thatz change

hmmm

This kind of politics playing out now can only happen in a country like Nigeria. That is why Africa remains backward! This can never happen in European or Asian countries. Despite it is spelt out in the constitution that the president should not be absent for more 90days in office..... Nigeria is a lawless country!!!

Knowing his health status will not change anything,they said that Baba is doing well and recovering quick so lets give him another 90days he might come back.


As for Acting P he is trying as much as he can i believe he can do better as time goes on

Hopeless mofos

i can't help it politics affects everyone directly or indirectly

Useless party. They should tell us what exactly buhari would have done that osibanjo have not bin doing...

I think Osinbajo is just being careful since he's just the acting President. He's still answerable to President Buhari and his cabal. Hopefully, when he gets sworn-in, he will perform beyond expectation.

Another 90 days? Is that a joke?

Serious issues.

PDP should go n die.

Ok ooo

Vice President Osinbajo is learning on the job; PDP should let him alone.

Osinbajo, in my opinion, is doing a better job than Buhari ever did.

As a matter of fact Buhari didn't have a plan - he threw Nigeria into disarray!

That's not the point. The point is that the Acting President is obviously afraid to be his own man by taking some decisions his ailing boss may not like if he returns to continue as president. The Acting President has the powers but is apparently afraid to exercise them since he doesn't know tomorrow. That is seriously affecting governance. Politics should be separated from governance. Thanks.

Sir, you are just being emotional as usual. The PDP is not insulting the Acting President which you know. They are being concerned about where the country is heading which should be the concern of every patriotic Nigerian. But it appears some people don't see beyond partisan affiliation.

Obviously you are the one speaking like a drunk or being satanic. Patriotic people should think about the welfare of the country, not myopic, ethnic or party affiliation.

H

And gej never had issues??

Congratulations to apc and pmb. The jinx has been broken, for straight 90days a ruling president not a monarch is awol and missing in action from the country.

Nnamdi Kanu is a seer and can't be faulted for saying here is a zoological enclave

This is the kind of opposition we want to be seeing PDP act in a manner of...
I believe the party is healthy again.
APC is just a bunch of mishaps championed by a sick and tribalist fulani of a man.

Okoroawusa:
PDP should go n die.

They should go and die for saying the obvious truth while those who are gaining from the confusion should continue living. Well done.
