Listening to Jonathan lied again on TV on power not vested in him is nauseating. This man thinks he is talking to foolish people like himself.

The Constitution only grants him power to nominate INEC Chairman and Senate granted with power to vote for and confirm the INEC Chairman. The power to remove INEC Chairman is only vested with the 2/3 of the Senate. If he had the power to appoint, then why Jega had to go through the Senate confirmation? Power to nominate is different from power to appoint INEC Chairman.


Electoral Law States:

“There is a difference between a civil servant and a public servant or officer. INEC and its chairman are a creation of the constitution. Their operations and regulations are as provided under sections 156 and 160 of the constitution”.

“Which specifically says only INEC has the powers to regulate its own procedures and cannot be subject to approval or control of the president or any other authority thereby establishing its independence”.

He further explained that “furthermore terminal leave is a form of removal, however, you slice or cut it and section 157 of the constitution is very clear that the INEC chairman’s removal can only be initiated by two thirds of the senate and not by the president."





If Jonathan thinks he can just come up one day and ask Jega to leave few weeks before election, he is in for rude awakening.

It is a code word for law usurpation for Jonathan to claim he has power to remove Jega. No you don't, Mr. President. Jonathan is up to mischief that is going to undermine this election. That is the only last card he has in this election. I read through the lines when he lied that 30% of PVC have been distributed in Lagos and 40% in Ogun State. This man has no shame. PVC collection in Lagos stands at 72% while that of Ogun is over 64% as at last Friday.

Gej-"i want all nigerians to vote"...can. sumbody pls tell d ph.D president dat u can only. Vote wen u 18+..so evribody can't vote

Listening to GEJ one always has this impression that one is listening to somebody who had his basic education aborted.As long as u didn't complete your basic schooling,you find it difficult to catch up in grasping anything that has to do with deep analysis and rational thinking.
Just listen to buhari,you would know this is somebody that passed through a standard,basic education.He talks rationally and has a deep insight of issues.

You are right.

All of you that posted above are a product of mis-calibrated sperm that we could see that you are suffering from acute Buhariasis.

Buhariasis is a medical condition that makes APC followers behave and act like Cows, sheep, aturu awusa, etc.

Tarnishing others image is not politics dear. We can still work together as brothers and sisters without resorting personal attacks. Thanks. God bless President GEJ

So from your logic, Jonathan doesn't appoint ministers, he only nominates them since the Senate has to ratify their appointment right?

BALDERDASH.

The same noise APC made that if election is postponed there will be crisis. And by the way is Jega not suppose to proceed on terminal leave before 28th of march

Akeregbe lo ma so ibi ti won ma fi okun si lorun ohun.

If Jega goes nothing go happen.

you are very correct ,but you forgot what happened to sanusi after he claimed he can not be removed as cbn boss.
Jonathan suspended him indefinitely.


"laws can be broken"- prison break

Perhaps you guys need certificate too so that you're level of thinking will advance.



APC has no money to campaign left.
If Jega leaves, and GEJ nominates, it will be sent to the senate for a long... long debate

the campaign continues for months
APC remains broke.
The governors who they're getting their funding from's tenures expire

APC does not need to campaign again,we have already decided who to vote for.

Well, I will advise you to tell that to Femi Fani Kayode and Doyin Okupe who is comparing Buhari's short military era and our President Jonathan's 6years filled with highly corrupt officers
