“The Presidency” Can Be Sued To Court.. - Immunity Does Not Cover The Presidency by BluntCrazeMan: 6:28am On Jun 15, 2021
The immunity clause in the Constitution covers only the President and Vice President, And Not “The Presidency”, neither did the clause extend to the entire “Office of the President”, nor to the entire “Federal Executive Council” or entire “Federal Government”.
..
Same thing goes with the Governor and Deputy Governor.
The immunity clause did not cover the entire “Office of the Governor”, nor does it cover the entire “State Executive Council” or the entire “State Government”

When the president misuses funds or misappropriates funds, he is supposed to be sued, but you cannot sue him while he is still the president.
If a president misuses power, or takes a decision, or makes a policy that goes against the Constitution, he is supposed to be sued, but you cannot sue him while he is still the president.

SERAP had been sueing the FG on a lot of issues, and they had been winning some of them.
But you know, the FG doesn't obey court orders, which itself can also be sued too

The presidency simply is the office of the president. The entire paraphernalia of the presidency which is basically the FG.

So yeah, technically, you can sue but the people you sue will the the Federal Government of Nigeria.

The PRESIDENCY can be sued IN NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES BUT NOT IN THE SITUATION WHERE MR PRESIDENT AND THE CJN HAVE DEMENTIA.

Yeaah.
The person you cannot sue is the President and Vice President.
But you can sue any of their aides, or members of their families.
You can also sue the SGF and his aides while they are still serving.

These two categories of people are all part of the “Presidency”.

Buhari's health challenges made provisions for at least 5 Presidents in the presidency and they all have immunities as Buhari.
