I know Nigeria constitution is too complex, complicated and ambiguous to understand, so many loopholes. The bunch of thugs, perversions, looters always find a place to hide of their mischievous activities under the same protective books called Nigeria Constitution.

As he has spoken that's how is gonna be.

Nigeria needs overhauling.

No disrespect, but why?

This man irritates me no end.

i don't like dino but anything that irritates you is highly welcomed

Buhari should just appoint Charly Boy as the EFCC chairman and allow Magu to Continue his work under him.
It's the Senate that'll beg him to bring Magu back

fredoooooo:
Ogun Loma payin sir ,awon oloriburuku omo ale ,Gbgogbo yin patapata e ni ku sibi aso yin ba wa.

Eepe!!

But truth be told, Magu is a dumb dullard. Did anyone hear him speak? Not appealing at all.

Melaye: Why Buhari Can't Re-present Magu's Name to Senate

Chairman, Senate  Committee on Federal Capital Territory (FCT), and Senator representing Kogi West, Dino Melaye has said that following the Senate rejection of the nomination of Mr. Ibrahim Magu as chairman of the Economic And Financial Crimes Commission  (EFCC) on two different occasions, President Muhammadu Buhari cannot validly re-nominate the same candidate again.

Melaye while commenting on the debate in the media about whether Magu can continue to act as EFCC boss in spite of his failure to be confirmed by the Senate or if the President can renominate him, Melaye said there is a provision of the Senate rules which would not allow members consider Magu for the same position again.

Citing Order 131 of the Senate Rules, Melaye said after the rejection of Magu's nomination, his candidacy is considered lapse and therefore advised the President to consider a fresh nominee who is qualified, in terms of experience, integrity, knowledge and temperament to lead the anti-graft agency.

Order 131 of the Senate Rules states that "nominations neither confirmed nor rejected during the session or within 21 working days in the case of Ministerial nominees shall be returned by the clerk to the National Assembly to the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and shall not again be made to the Senate by the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria".

The Senator who insisted that Magu did not impress anybody including those Senators who would have been sympathetic to his cause during the confirmation hearing in the Senate urged President Buhari to look for a replacement and avoid actions that may result in violation of the laws of the land.

"Those suggesting to the President that after failing to scale the confirmation process twice, the President should leave Magu to be acting are only recommending violation of the law, disrespect for due process and perpetration of illegality. All these will only undermine democracy and constitutionalism in our country.

"Those drafters of the law who made the provision that the Senate should confirm the nomination of the EFCC chairman did not make any mistake and nobody should observe the law in the breach by getting a person into that office who has not been confirmed. Magu is not greater than the law creating EFCC. Magu is not the last messiah. He can't be the only competent person for the job out of 170 million Nigerians. Should he voluntarily decline the appointment today, will EFCC fold up?", the Senator asked.

Signed
Senator Dino Melaye
Chairman, Senate Committee on FCT

You are wasting your time with this your convoluted theory of conspiracy. Tell us something else.

Splashme:
Magu's performance that day was very poor.

Besides, it will be stewpid of President Buhari to even represent
Magu again after that damning report from the DSS.

We claim to copy our democracy from USA and I ask if a US president
will even ever present a personality that has been so grossly indicted by
the FBI or CIA to congress for appointment.

Only a foolish illiterate president will do that and I won't be surprised if president Buhari does it

Jeff Sessions

Imagine the low and absurd quality of the people like this useless and thuggish senator running and making laws for Nigeria.

Senator Ita giwa has these to say

"She listed a former chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission, Chief Onyema Ugochukwu and an ex - minister of aviation , Prof . Babalola Aborishade, as nominees that were screened up to four times by the Senate before they were eventually cleared during the Chief Olusegun Obasanjo - led administration ."

A big thank you to you!

A country deserves the type of senators it gets.A useless senator ignoring the constitution for a mere in-house rule

The constitution is very clear,only the president can remove Magu as the acting EFCC boss/head:

D - The Public Service of the Federation


171. (1) Power to appoint persons to hold or act in the offices to which this section applies and to remove persons so appointed from any such office shall vest in the President.

(2) The offices to which this section applies are, namely -
(a) Secretary to the Government of the Federation;
(b) Head of the Civil Service of the Federation;
(c) Ambassador, High Commissioner or other Principal Representative of Nigeria abroad;
(d) Permanent Secretary in any Ministry or Head of any Extra-Ministerial Department of the Government of the Federation howsoever designated; and
(e) any office on the personal staff of the President.
(3) An appointment to the office of the Head of the Civil Service of the Federation shall not be made except from among Permanent Secretaries or equivalent rank in the civil service of the Federation or of a State.

Provided that where a person has been appointed from a public service of the Federation or a State, he shall be entitled to return to the public service of the Federation or of the State when the President ceases to hold office.


Magu is not indispensable,but we must rise against conspiracy and guide against future blackmail of seemingly hardworking,fearless and non-compromising public officers.

How long does the constitution allow for acting capacity?

Remembering some lyrics from Saheed Osupa
Title: Nigeria go better from
Album: Respect
Nigeria go beta, e go beta leun so e go beta. e go beta 42 years, e go beta since independence, will it be beta in 100 years or which year. we've seen London, eye full. we've seen Yankee, our eye full except you haven't. Ask those living in Germany. sometimes ago na hometown be resting place but now we are even afraid of our fatherland we now prefer abroad because of suffering.
E go better since childhood till fatherhood and now maybe grandfatherhood
Like if you're an Osupa Fan

YOU'RE JUST IGNORANT OF THE LAW..........DID ANY COURT OF LAW CONVICT MIKE FLINN(FORMER SECURITY ADVISER TO TRUMP)B4 HE RESIGNED OVER A MERE ALLEGATION? ONLY IN THE ZOOLOGICAL REPUBLIC. FOOLS EVERYWHERE!

bukiboy:
[i]It's so sad that people can only react based on sentiments and not fact.
I happened to watch the confirmation process live on NTA and am not impressed with Magu, he couldn't defend himself or answer questions, yet some people still want him to head EFCC.
Even if we don't like the Nigeria Senate that's not enough reason to confirm Magu, we should rather question DSS report on Magu.
No matter your dislike for Nigeria Senate, Kindly ignore your sentiments and ask Mr. President to present another officer in the EFCC for confirmation.

Confirmation should be based on his record and performance in his present and former responsibilities and not on some bogus and already debunked DSS cooked up claims.


The prob;em here is not about Magu, it's about the corrupt people they call lawmakers in Nigeria working on behalf of other corrupt entities in Nigeria.


Also, we found out today that the Nigerian customs impounded an armored Range Rover imported by Saraki, the senate president with fake documentation.


We can not have corrupt people looking out for their own corrupt interests determine who should head our law enforcement agencies.

This is just like the ignorance they displayed when they threatened to sack the customs boss when in fact they can not do so constitutionally since only the president can sack his own appointees based on the separation of powers and the Nigerian constitution. All because of uniform that's not required or in the Nigerian constitution.

Just imagine a whole lawmaker confusing and comparing his silly senate rules with the Nigerian constitution.

Nigeria is not going anywhere with such corrupt and ignorant people in position of power.
