Wailers can wail themselves to death like barren witches, it doesn't stop the fact that Bubu remains the president while PYO is his vice and their relationship has been cordial.

"Disturbed by the content of the letter, Senator Mao Ohabunwa, who raised a Point of Order, said there is no provision in the constitution for a Coordinating Vice President."



It even took an Igbo senator to point out the anomaly. When will these SW people develop balls?. There are many senators from Osinbajo's constituency. What are they waiting for.

Buhari did not even write that letter. Abba Kyari di. SMH.
Look at you. Igbo men are just too emotional. All the SW senators you are talking about know that Osinbajo is in charge. That is all that mattets, why waste bullets on chicken?

Saraki and Lawan are right. Ohuabunwa is wrong.

Section 145 of the constitution does not require president to write to transmit power to the VP. That is automatic once he writes to go on leave.

"Where the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives, a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them in written declaration to the contrary, such functions shall be discharged by Vice-President as Acting President"

So you can see that wordings of the president's letter is irrelevant so long as he writes that he is on vacation.

By virtue of section 148(2b) also, the function of the president is to co-ordinate government. No need for emotions here.

Russian Interpretation of Press Release

President Buhari travels for cerebral check down

President Mumu Bubu carries two Ghana must go bags stuffed with oil proceeds tonight for cerebral consultation with his colonial-era doctors in London. He was offered similar treatment in Karachi and Dubai but turned it down saying that the level of care provided by his ‘ummah’ was not at the same level provided by ‘dem oyibo’ (his words). Before take-off, he prayed for Nigerians to have the fortitude to bear the presidential power vacuum, incessant power cuts, one meal per day, armed robberies and fake pastors. Meanwhile, Bubu will be enjoying 24 hour electricity, MRI brain scan, 3 meals per day and the best that forex can purchase despite his defacto naira devaluation over the term of his presidency.
He had planned to leave last week, but decided to wait for the annual miyetti allah cow race in Daura and for the arrival of 82 girls from Niamey who were to be used cynically to stand in for the original missing batch abducted from Chibok.
Bubu was also at pains to stress that his 2015 election pledge of no foreign health care for government officials was not a literal pronouncement but an abstract desire to provide inspiration for other Nigerians to construct other possible policies based on fantasy and not reality.
The length of the President’s stay will be determined by Allah not doctors. Government will continue, led by his hand-picked cabal of thieves and sycophants who have already moved into the inner vaults of the Central Bank of Nigeria to begin a three month repainting project to mirror the Sistine Chapel to honour their political god-fathers.

From the Constitution http://www.nigeria-law.org/ConstitutionOfTheFederalRepublicOfNigeria.htm
145. Whenever the President transmits to the President of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives a written declaration that he is proceeding on vacation or that he is otherwise unable to discharge the functions of his office, until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary such functions shall be discharged by the Vice-President as Acting President.
From my interpretation, it is not up to the President to declare that Vice-President is Acting President; the Constitution makes it clear that
the Vice-President becomes Acting President as soon as the vacation letter is sent, up until the President sends another letter that he has resumed.
Re: Buhari Names Osinbajo 'Coordinator' In His Letter To Senate by Shikena(m): 4:26pm On May 09, 2017
Much ado about nothing.

It is the constitution that legitimizes the issue of avoiding vacuum in the presidency not the president and it is triggered by letter to the senate to that effect. As soon as the absence of the president is conveyed the vice president becomes the acting president. The elected president has no control over this process and no manipulation of words in the letter required by the constitution will change it.

Where you have constitutional issue is when a president fails to officially convey his absence to the national assembly.

Complete delusion. I think you are too young to understand the complexities of governance and the power of words. If Osinbajo is coordinating, he is not acting on behalf of the president.

He should be refered to as "Acting President". Period. Abba Kyari can stop him from signing any important document by claiming that he is taking it to the president to sign in London. In fact he can ground everything to a halt. Lagos - London is only a 6 hour flight. This guy Abba Kyari could fly to London at any time with the excuse that the president asked for this and that file.

You guys should show some courage and fight this situation now. The longer it takes, the harder it becomes. The cabal are hell bent.

It is unbecoming for a man your age to keep acting so crass as exploiting the differences that exist.
Let me explain what ember of discord means. It means when you are making appointment in a multi ethnic country, you choose 90% from a certain zone. It means when you are recruiting in a nation, you choose 50 in one state and 9 in another. Do well to remember this lecture. Bravo you have learnt something new today and therefore wiser.

Buhari and his notherners are losing it again big time and they know Osunbade grin will be next president.

Let them know that if Osinbajo was not in his presidential ticket, there was no way the APC would have swept the western states, and by implication the presidency. And why didn't Buhari make it a north-north presidential ticket and see if Goodluck will not be president today?

He is just kidding, everyone owe's God almighty his life and if God has destined Osinbajo to rule Nigeria, there is nothing Buhari and his arewa brothers an do about it. He will give way like Abaca did and Osinbajo will rule afterwards. The constitution is clear, he cannot write or re-write the laws to suit his whims.

But here we are, the "NEPA bill" certificate of a president with record F9 in 5 Subjects being the direct Boss of a law professor.... Buhari, is not even qualified to be Osinbajo''s student.... Mschewwww

All nice and dandy on paper. We know what the constitution says. But reality is totally different. The De facto acting president may be Buhari's chief of staff. It's very easy for them to frustrate Osinbajo. Unless Osinbajo and his backers are ready to kick azz.
Re: Buhari Names Osinbajo 'Coordinator' In His Letter To Senate by deolu2000(m): 4:38pm On May 09, 2017
I think those that wrote the letter delibrately avoided the word "acting presidennt" but since they referred to section 145(1) of Nigeria's constitution, i know that their is no issue here if the rule of law has to take it cause. God bless Nigeria.

PMBNG:
So God was not in charge when Buhari was in the country?

All I know is Osinbajo remains coordinating president till Buhari rewrite the Senate on this.
I am surprised you are loosing sleep over what the president 'wrote' to the Senate.
So if the letter has read 'Interim', you can jump abi?

The only language recognized by the Nigerian Constitution in this scenario is ACTING.
Buhari is free to even put it in Hausa or Ibibio language. That doesn't change nothing.

So Vice President Osinbajo is now Coordinator - not Acting President.

Ok. Memo taken.
Point of correction. Osinbajo is coordinating vice president.

Co-ordinating or Acting President is irrelevant since the President has quoted the relevant section of the constitution; section 145(2) of 1999.let theVP settle down for business of governance and not to waste time on trivialities.
