This is the most Femi Falana blasted President Buhari for not honouring the invitation extended to him by the federal house of representatives led by Femi Gbajabiamila.

Buhari is a tyrant. The Nass has absolute power to summon. The Nass represents all Nigerians so disregarding the Nass is tantamount to disregarding Nigerians. He should be impeached asap

Which Nass will impeach him. Is it the one he selected its leadership in his bedroom?

Keep your blasting to yourself. You all knew Buhari was incompetent to rule this country but you guys forced him on Nigerians just because of your hatred for Jonathan. I just pray for mercy for all those who voted for Buhari. May God have mercy on you all.

Femi Falana who previously said the senate has no power to summon the president.
My brother, the only true SAN was the late Gani Fawehinmi. All the rest, Falana, Ozekome, etc are all for their pockets.

Falana get double mouth.... A typical afonja

Most don't deserve mercy because they are ready to vote in Buhari for he third term if he chooses to do that

These Nigerian lawyers are only consistent with their inconsistencies...

lunatic lawyer.you told us in 2018 that bullhary can not be summoned by national assembly you even backed your gibberish with section 88 now you are still criticizing dullardiho for not honoring their invitation in 2020 still relying on the same section 88 shameless lai Muhammad cousin

So he'll continue to hide like this till 2023?

In law, you can speak from both sides depending on the fact of the case

I stopped taking this man and his opinion serious, the day he supported the illegitimate removal of ononge and the installation of the now supreme court governor in imo state, I will not be surprised if his reason for supporting endsars is because his son is involved .

my brother God don run comot for Nigeria. We re on our own oo.

Lol
I have always known this man to be a snake, we all know how he supported buhari during his first term and swallowed every illegitimate policy buhari dishes out..he's now forming activist probably because he's no getting government contracts.

all those that voted for Buhari should just be praying hard for God's forgiveness, because normally e no suppose better for them.

We don't have a president

Can I hire falana?

Bubu has been made a tin god by his many followers including politicians in the North and NASS....he answers to no one!

If you believe the president shouldn't be summoned you need thorough psychiatric evaluation. I mean do we exist because of the president or does he exist because of us. So why should he be sacred? Nigeria still has a long way to go before we will develop if we're still debating issues like this

e tire me o

The constitution of Nigeria is just an ordinary paper written by people with parochial interest and with so many loopholes, contradictions & faulty write-ups. To worsen the situation are many so called Nigerian Judges & lawyers who are epitome of corruption.

A Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Mr Femi Falana, has faulted the Senate for ordering the President to appear before it, saying it has no power to summon him as well as state governors.

He made this known when he appeared as a guest on Channels Television’s breakfast programme, Sunrise Daily, on Thursday.

Quoting Sections of the Constitution, he explained that “the President or the governor of a state cannot be summoned by the National Assembly (NASS).

“There is no such power given to NASS by the Constitution to summon everybody,” he stated.

“It has given the President the discretion to address the National Assembly either jointly or separately on any matter of national importance.”

The senior lawyer also said: “the Senate didn’t get it right this time around. By virtue of Section 67 of the Constitution, the National Assembly or either chamber can summon a Minister when the affairs of his or her ministries are under consideration.

“The only other occasion where a public officer can be summoned by the National Assembly is when proceedings are ongoing to expose corruption (Section 88) and when a law is being debated either with a view to amending it or to have a new law entirely.”

Speaking further, Mr Falana stated that the lawmakers can, however, fix areas of the Constitution perceived as weak, rather than going beyond its limits as such actions can subject the institution to ridicule.


“What can be done, a constitutional review is ongoing, you can deal with the identified gaps but don’t go outside the limit of your powers. When you do that, you ridicule the institution and that is what is going on.”

That was back in 2018.

Even the Devil left a long time ago, he couldn't cope when he found out that he is an amateur and stands no chance and can't compete in the Nigerian evil league.

So much Ado
