Meaning, if he goes away and comes back on the 20th day, then there is nothing the NA can do, right.

This then automatically implies he has 21 days, Simple statement, simple logic;. How and why is it difficult to understand.

Apparently it is difficult enough as u don’t understand it.

Try to read the following, this time very CAREFULLY:

“He said those making the claim were misinterpreting Section 145(2) of the constitution...

He said, “The sum total of that subsection is that if the President fails, refuses and or neglects to transmit power to the Vice President, the National Assembly is mandated after the period of 21 days to pass a resolution empowering the Vice President to start to act automatically ‘as the Acting President of Nigeria’.

“That section did not and never provided that it is only when the President will spend more than 21 days outside the shores of the country, that he will be required to hand over power to his Vice President.

“The 21 days provision is meant to give the maximum period the President will be allowed to be in breach of Section 145 of the Constitution as the National Assembly will come in to do what the President ought to have done in the first place by mandating the Vice President to act in the place of the ‘travelled President’.

“The President has breached the 1999 constitution, no doubt, by his inability to transmit power to the Vice President of the country for the 19 or less that he wants to spend for his “private visit’ in the UK.

“His “private visit’ has no place in Section 145 of the 1999 Constitution in the first place. He is only allowed outside the shores of Nigeria for official visits, medicals and or vacations.”

Ubani said the signing of a bill by Buhari in London did not speak well for Nigeria’s sovereignty.”

Here is the President of US doing it.

My man stop trying to be too clever by half. This is what I wrote originally:

“I have searched the internet, I can’t find any other time it has been done, not even in history (I mean carrying a bill to a foreign country to give a prez to sign). If u can find an instance let us know.”

Comparing that with the below is comparing apples and oranges. Did anybody carry the bill to Malaysia? Where is the dire urgency in the bill PMB signed?

White House aides use autopen to sign highway bill while Obama is overseas
GREGORY KORTE | USA TODAY
Updated 10:21 a.m. EST Nov. 20, 2015

WASHINGTON — White House aides have used a mechanical device known as the "autopen" to sign a two-week extension of highway funding while President Obama is in Malaysia...
Without the president's signature, authorization for taxing and spending to pay for transportation projects would expire Friday...
Congress passed a short-term extension Thursday, but the president isn't due to return to Washington until Monday.

Muhammadu Buhari is the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, not Osinbajo. It is the president's prerogative to decide if he wants to sign a document himself, or if he wants his deputy to sign it for him; it is also his prerogative to choose if he wants to sign it in his office, or in a hotel or in Abuja or Sokoto or London; enough of this noise making over nothingness. By signing a sheet of paper whilst in Nigeria House London, as opposed to Abuja, the president has broken no existing Nigerian laws (True or False). The 21 days Law was instituted to forestall a nasty situation like the Yaradua saga where there was a vacuum in leadership. If Buhari is sound enough to sign a document even on camera, how is that a vacuum of leadership?

Under our presidential system of government (even under the American system which we claim to copy), VPs have very limited powers; they are more like mere ceremonial assistants to the president. The VP Osinbajo is a seasoned lawyer who knows his job and who knows the limits of his powers and authority; so he's not complaining. Quit drinking panadol for him! The VP is also an extremely calm and collected man of wisdom who can read from several miles, the evil manipulations of his detractors (claiming to be friends) who are hell bent on forcing him to pick a fight with his boss.

Whether you like it or not, Osinbajo still takes the honour as one of the most influential VPs Nigeria has ever produced despite the typical lack of authority of VPs. That partly explains why his name is always on the news and on the lips of his haters and 'bad-wishers'). When GEJ or Sambo were VPs, did you ever hear of their names or even know of their existence?

With due respect, u r ducking the issue. Try to read the following CAREFULLY:

He said those making the claim were misinterpreting Section 145(2) of the constitution...

He said, “The sum total of that subsection is that if the President fails, refuses and or neglects to transmit power to the Vice President, the National Assembly is mandated after the period of 21 days to pass a resolution empowering the Vice President to start to act automatically ‘as the Acting President of Nigeria’.

Akamariner:
that is exactly what i'm going to be doing.
i dream big, and i work towards greatness in life, so naturally i will want my students to see things the way i see, and to reason the way i reason.

Sounds really great. If I don’t mind, whereabouts r u located and what price range

obailala:
Did the VP ever complain to you or abybody, or did he tell you he needed anybody's pity? What exactly is there to be regretted? Did Atiku or GEJ or Sambo regret being Nigerian VP? So why should Osinbajo regret being VP?

Who in Nigeria doesnt know the VP's power are very limited? What's even all these noise about the president travelling for few weeks and not handing over the mantle to VP? Is this the first time this is happening in Nigeria since 1999 or could this noise just be due to a lack of other meaningful topics to discuss?

I have searched the internet, I can’t find any other time it has been done, not even in history (I mean carrying a bill to a foreign country to give a prez to sign). If u can find an instance let us know.
If it is no big deal why was the constitution amended so that after 21 days the NA must mandate the VP to take over the govt?

SocialJustice:
Yeah, thought as much. I don't mind getting to know you though. What's the height you like for a guy and how many of them have you met, not necessarily dated.

I’ve met quite a few. Below is a pic of my current friend standing next to a normal height guy. Exactly my type

RTSC:
Very tall ladies shouldn't date very tall guys.

You would give birth to a freak that would be laughed at in school.

A freak that’d make millions playing basket ball

SocialJustice:
I'm 6 3. You sound like you want a 7 footer.

U r a bit too short FOR ME

Billionaire this, billionaire that, and I have only about $5m net worth. A bit depressing

SocialJustice:
I love it when a girl is as tall as her man.

Please if you're a girl here and at least 6 feet tall, please send me a message, we mustn't date. We could just be friends and see how things move from there.

I am six two. I like men much taller than me. How tall are u?

Mshad662:

Why na? She is the opposite

Iya ibeji

biggy26:
And Tinubu was hailing him for his actions. I'm now beginning to see that all these is to spite the VP.
Pmb has failed all his supporters, even Barr. Ubani.

Obviously. And dovetail that with firing his aides

drlateef:
Busy body lawyer. Even a kindergarten pupil knows that there is no breach until after 21 days. Otherwise, such provision will not be there in the constitution. Signing a bill outside the shore is not also a breach. Why is he making noise? So as to get noticed?

I have searched the internet, I can’t find any other time it has been done, not even in history. If u can find an instance let us know.
The 21 days is for the NA not the prez. READ the article!

Monogamy:
The nature of the trips matter.. He is not incapacitated this time

BTW I have searched the internet, I can’t find any other time this has been done, not even in history

Monogamy:
The nature of the trips matter.. He is not incapacitated this time

Neither was he last time PLUS there was no bill pending to be brought all the way to U.K., yet he handed over

Can u also be a personal coach (over the phone)? Your job will be to goad and harass me into action, preferably big action and also scout the internet for opportunities and things that’ll benefit me

Femeto:
Lets impeach Buhari.He bought arms without National Assembly approval and now he doesn't respect his V.P.

The NA that can impeach him are totally in his pocket

Monogamy:
How long is his UK trip for?

This is from Punch:

“When the President travelled to London on a working leave on August 3, 2018 and returned on the 18th, spending a total of 16 days, he handed over to Osinbajo.
It was while Osinbajo was acting President during the same period that he sacked Lawal Daura, a member of the cabal.
Since that Daura’s sacking over a year ago, the President has not transferred power to Osinbajo again.“

adelaja70:
Una no dey tire ni? This same Buhari transfer power to his vp more than twice in their first term and none of you crying forced to do so. And Buhari is the only and first president that have done so since 1999....So enough of the noise Abeg.

So why did he suddenly stop after VP sacked Daura??

Besides u r lying. See below

OldSkoolHeadBoy:
It would have been a good exercise if the President have signed the bill within the shores of Nigeria. I am amazed that most of the people ferociously attacking the President have completely ignored the importance of the bill he has just signed into law because of the blind hatred for him over the election loss.

Are the critics mindful of the fact that until now the previous set of laws applicable to deepwater oil & gas operations are from the ones applicable to land, swamp and shallow water terrains. As a veteran in the field for almost 30 years, I will like to reveal to you that the cost for million dollar pipeline license is a ridiculous N20 (yes, TWENTY NAIRA !). That amount is what is payable to DPR using a bank draft whose commission is over and above the principal amount. Let me also reveal to you that the development of deepwater assets started before year 2000 when oil was just about $10/BL and OBJ was the President. The arrangement with the IOCs for deepwater operations is based on what is called Production Sharing Agreement (PSA) and the principle is that the government contributes ZERO to develop the field and the IOC foots the entire bill. The cost of field development is then deducted over the production years until the cost of the project is realized. At the onset alter first oil, the IOCS take most of the oil and sell and gives just about 5% - 15% to Nigeria and that dynamics is supposed to change IF the selling price of oil goes above $20/BL but unfortunately, nobody was paying attention and the price of oil is now over $50/BL. This is what PMB has just rectify and all you guys are complaining about is the optics is where the bill was signed into law !

We are such a strange people......

And what would happen if he waits a few days to come back and sign the bill? Will senate un-pass the bill. Stop defending the indefensible. This is the same guy dubbed baba go slow - no budget, no ministers appointed for longest time in 9ja history. All of a sudden he can’t wait to come back to sign a bill

mannyiyke:
I advocate parliamentary system of government, because the presidential system gave excessive powers to the president. This makes the president behave anyhow. Besides, the presidential system is wasteful.

I totally agree. Just because it works for America does not mean. We are a different type of society and also don’t have America’s excess money. But maybe not quite the parliamentary system

sonature1:
U know him very well.

I think he got angry for two reasons:

His expectations were high. In 2016, I remember how he used to talk about what would become of Nigeria after Buhari's first tenure.

He got really angry when Buhari started using the DSS to attack and prosecute judges. He felt it was outright abuse of power and criticized the move heavily on Radio Continental ( now Max FM)

But in this case he is only saying exactly what is in the constitution, without embellishment

Josh44s:
So nobody in this entire country get guts to move a motion for the impeachment of Buhari?

Only a fool would try - seeing as all 3 branches of govt are in his pocket

anonimi:
Which Yar'Adua?
The one who harassed the hell out of Ribadu because of Ibori or there is another Yar'Adua?
The first one with a cabal that looted us quietly and gave us P&ID palaver?
Do you have a short memory

It is selective amnesia. Nigerians have a tendency to develope it when it suits them

Obere4u:
Ubani said there's no place for "private visit " in the constitution but there a place for "vacation"
My question is, what's the different between the two?

If u go to bury your grandma, that’s a private visit. If u go on leave, that’s vacation

Akamariner:

Edyice:
LIFELESS : who is this ubani

Abba: he's one stupid low life lawyer

Lifeless : can I send DSS to go and pick him up


Abba : Not now , let him keep running his mouth
. If we catch him now NIGERIANS will complain.

Lol. Very funny but on point

adioolayi:
Ehn....Impeach him na....odé.

Impeach him how? He owns both chambers of NA

pickatyou:
Nigeria became a joke a long time when we choose an illiterate to rule over us.

Imagine Trump, Putin, Merkel, Macron, Borris, even Ramaphosa traveling out of their country then few days later the presidential house boy brings some documents over to him to sign in another country. I don't think that document should be valid.

Its like a judge giving judge on a roadside and expects the court to uphold it

I have searched the internet, I can’t find any other time it has been done, even in history

pawesome:
and nothing you or anybody can do...he has done it over n over n over again and nothing can happen....

True. If u have senate, house, AND Supreme Court, you can do do whatever u want
