Yoloba Muslim and BMC miscreants will rather die than allow us kick Buhari out.

That's what brought GEJ to power.

It's only possible when the president is incapacitated.

Those calling for 25th amendment on Trump are day dreaming. It's not viable.

These provisions are enshrined in our constitution..The only time we were close to activating it was during Yaradua presidency but the then VP jonathan was taking cautions before fate favoured him.

It can be invoked based on mental incapacitation if the VP Pence and most of the cabinet members believe Trump is not mentally stable to operate in office of the POTUS..And to be candid with you,most people would doubt that guy's mental health based on his irrational behaviors and his childish utterances.There is a reason why a child below the age eighteen can not be voted for as a president because it's believed that his or her mental strength can not hold the office.

Even at that's

1. The president can fire the VP or those executives. That makes their signature invalide.
2. The president is not incapacitated or has been confirmed by any medications to have mental instability.
3. The constitution request the president to write to the house to confirm the VP letter which Trump will not write.
4. The constitution demands 21 days procedure but only 12 days left.
5. Forcing the 25th amendment will have two forces in white house and millitry confused.

Incorrect the VP can only be removed via Impeachment. It's an elected position not appointed.

VP, no. Other executives, yes. So VP cannot do it alone.

Read the section 4 of this amendment, it clearly states that if others in executive cabinet or members of congress believe president is not able to carry on his duty he should be removed.

This is serious. Where are constitution experts here? Any other time una go dey flex, now is time to show us what you know.

Can sai baba not be removed by combination of cabinet and NASS ?

What is president pro tempre, is that not the vp? Or is that senate president?
