PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 7:53pm On Feb 24, 2010
I wonder why anyone would want Goodluck to hussle for power, you said it all
the national assembly and FEC has the final say here, if they decides not to for obvious reasons
like greed and flowing naira then we continue with the status quo whether favourable or not am indifferent.
what difference is between Goodluck and Yar adua anyway?
wrong. Yaradu is HEAD OF FEC. so he has the FINAL say. He appointed all of them!

NA can ofcourse impeach him. But they would set a dangerous precedent.

Impeach North president for South President. They wont go that route.
Yaradua is executive PRESIDENT. Goodluck is the Vice-President. He waits for orders from Yaradua.

There is no LAW that says Yaradua must see Goodluck face to face to pass duties for him!
PoliticsRe: Yar'adua Returns To Nigeria: Condition Unknown by otawa: 7:48pm On Feb 24, 2010
According to the law passed by NASS, YAR A'LIAR MUST WRITE TO NASS to resume, he has not done so. He is not the President and CIC until then, now, will NASS asked for medical report to acept the letter of a liar and dishonest man who left the country in jeopardy and cannot write for medical leave according to the constitution.
wrong. did Yaradua wrote NA before they pass whatever they did? NO!

They used his audio-interview as basis.

a court of law already said Goodluck is doing acting president work. NA goofed.

Yaradua is EXECUTIVE President of NIGERIA! He does not need any letter or depend on NA.

The only option is if they KILL  him or IMPEACH him.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 5:29pm On Feb 24, 2010
Yaradu is back,
As if we did not know that. Thanks
PoliticsRe: Yar'adua Returns To Nigeria: Condition Unknown by otawa: 5:27pm On Feb 24, 2010
Whatever maybe the case. We don't want Yar'Adua any more. He does not represent the people.
Nigeria constitution says IMPEACH your president if you dont want him anymore.

That is why you should have spoken-up in 2007.

Are you listening to this otawa who is obviously an aboki affiliate scared of power shift to the south south of Nigeria and has no understanding of the jurisdiction of the consitution of Nigeria
I simply refuse to be carried away by fantasy but ' Nigeria Consitution'.

hey you can imagine number one  man in this country call nigeria coming into this country like a theif in the night?
Did the constitution says he want manners the President should come back to Nigeria? NO.

Then Yaradu has done nothing wrong.

lets keep waiting for God to come help us. Most of you will die not seeing that day come to pass

"God helps those who help themselves"
Gbosa. Gbosa.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 5:12pm On Feb 24, 2010
Bwahahahaha! My guy don't make me laugh. . . Is that what the constitution says? A country has been left adrift  rudderless f.or 3mths and he's supposed to decline? In a sane country he would have been castigated sharply by the legislature, judiciary and well meaning statesmen for not assuming the role much earlier. . and by much earlier I mean a week after your moribund President went AWOL.
there is Politics, there is rule of law. GoodLuck played the wrong politics. A court already said, Goodluck has been doing the work of acting president. or did you forget that.

Court of Law is above National Assembly!

Does the word incapacitated mean anything to u? What's the use of a vegetable in the Presidency for cryin out loud? I can't believe some things are even being debated.
exactly, what is incapacitated?

As long as Yaradua can SPEAK and thumb print forget about GoodLuck.

President is not oblige to be seen in public, that is why he has Vice. He can hold his FEC meeting by his bed side!

Didnt same National Assembly use his audio-interview with BBC as basis to make Jonathan acting President?

Goodluck is greedy and ge got caught in wrong politics by Turai.

It is so obvious that Yaradua is not fit. If not, for the Nigerian that he is, he would have stepped out of the plane himself and wave to fellow Nigerians and would have given a speech to re-assure us.
wrong.
There is no place in the constitution where the President suppose to wave to Nigeria when coming back to Nigeria.

As for speaking, let us wait. He can speak to us through radio show. Obama speaks to American via radio. No law says it has to be from TV.
PoliticsRe: Yar'adua Returns To Nigeria: Condition Unknown by otawa: 5:02pm On Feb 24, 2010
Jonathan. He is just gonna be the face of the president. Doing the president's order.
yep. thats why they call him Vice President.

He was over-zealous and betrayed his sick Boss.

Never take over until you are 100% sure the other guy is not coming back.

You will see loyalty now switching back to Yaradua, the executive President.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 4:59pm On Feb 24, 2010
BTW, are you saying it is possible for Yar'adua to return Michael Aondokaa to His former post as AGF?
Yaradua does not need to come to power. He is the executive President of NIGERIA.

He is alive and physically present in Nigeria.

All he has to do, call his press secretary and tell them he return Aondokaa as AGF.

And then append his signature or tumb print to the official gazzete.

Nobody. Nobody in Nigeria can question his word. The words of executive President.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 4:48pm On Feb 24, 2010
We are talking about the lives of 150Million people here, I don't think it should be reduced to a game of hide and seek between a few buccaneers who are more interested in keeping Nigerians in the dark for their personal gain than public service.
Too late.

You should have speak up against Mr Obasanjo in 2007 when he was scheming Yaradua.

Can u explain how on earth Jon has bitten his boss in the a'ss?
By taking up a position he's not only entitled to in the absence of the boss but was also thrust upon him by the legislature who if I may remind u are representative of the people of Nigeria
He should have thank National Assembly but insisted he will only take over as acting-President once he physically meet with his Boss.

GoodLuck is greedy for power. Now, Turai has shown she is master of the game.

All these scenarios just confirms that Goodluck is actually not in charge of the presidency
How can he? Yaradua is neither dead or impeached!
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 4:34pm On Feb 24, 2010
The mistake was to have kept some of his men around and redeploying instead of firing them.
agreed. GoodLuck was not in charge, otherwise, he would have refused landing for the plane and tell them to re-direct the flight to Ghana or wherever.

As long as Yaradua is phyiscally present and can SPEAK, the game is up for Mr GoodLuck.

This gambit of GoodLuck to continue till Yaradua recovers is a refuse.

GoodLuck should expect a deadly blow soon.

You dont bite your Boss on the back and expect no reaction!

As far as Jonathan does not receive any direct instructions from Yar'adua, he remains 100% in charge.
which planet are you? Yaradua is EXECUTIVE PRESIDENT. He has ALL SAY in everything!

Yaradua is not oblige to talk/instruct to GoodLuck!

Mr Obasanjo was not talking to Atiku for over a year towards the end in 2007.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 4:26pm On Feb 24, 2010
Go there and tell them. Two batallions of soldiers were deployed in Abuja without the say-so of the C-in-C (Jonathan) in the run-up to Yar'adead's return.

Are you still in doubt of where the real power lies?
Gbosa!

Tell them, those day dreaming.

As long as Yaradua can SPEAK, thats all he needs. His words are final.

There is only one President in Nigeria at any time and that man is Yaradua.

PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 4:20pm On Feb 24, 2010
Yaradua has no right to dictate whether Jonathan should remain in office or not, because he wasn't the the one that made him acting President. The only thing he can do is to write the house of assembly informing  them that he has fully recovered. It is  only the national assembly that will return him back as president after receiving the letter. Goodluck Jonathan remains President till that is done!!
dreams. dreams.

Yaradua is executive President.

He does not need to write any letter he is back. Did he wrote one that he was going away?

Nigerians elected Yaradua as their President. GoodLuck will start taken order again.

Turai is a master planner. wao.
PoliticsRe: Jonathan To Remain In Charge While Yar'adua Recovers by otawa: 2:51pm On Feb 24, 2010
All Jonathan needs to sack to stabilise this situation include NSA Sarki Mukhtar and Economic Adviser tanimu Yakubu.

He does not need senate confirmation to replace these folks. With this two sacked, the yar'adua kitchen cabinet will be badly damaged.

He does not need to sack the whole cabinet or dissolve the FEC.

Abba Sayyad Ruma is a small boy who can be managed until he is later sacked.
You are surely day-dreaming.

So long as Yaradua can SPEAK and recognise people. He does not even need to walk. He has final SAY.

Yaradua is the excutive President of Nigeria!

He can have his cabinet meetings by his 'sick bed side in Aso Rock'

Yar Adua will soon exit the presidency.
All these things are stunts by the criminal cabal to hold unto their jobs, its the last roll of the dice for the vultures.
as long as Yaradua is physically in Nigeria and he could talk, then forget about GoodLuck.

The only option left now is to impeach or kill Yaradua.

PoliticsRe: Washington Times Confirms 9/11 Inside Job by otawa: 1:29am On Feb 24, 2010
A lingering technical question about the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks still haunts some, and it has political implications: How did 200,000 tons of steel disintegrate and drop in 11 seconds? A thousand architects and engineers want to know, and are calling on Congress to order a new investigation into the destruction of the Twin Towers and Building 7 at the World Trade Center.
We knew this already. Jetliner uses KEROSINE.

And steel can only melt at 1130°C and structural steel at 1510°C.

It is impossible for KEROSINE alone to melt steel in open space. It simply cant reach the melting point.

There must be another form of 'combustion' included in the 9-11 incident.

Clearly this other form of combustion was not on the jetliners that crashed into the building.

Only a fool will trust a country that lied to the world about WMD in Iraqi.
