Osinbajo that cannot sack Magu because he is Buhari's appointee, would now sack Malami another Buhari's appointee. Would he also sack Garba Shehu who said the same thing?

This man does not know the disease he is suffering from...

That's how they were yelling for Lawal, in the end, Buhari pulled the rug from under their feet.

Anyway, he is justifying his pay. Let him continue.

-Lord

AP should trend softly, he shouldn't trust all these guys. They are pushing him and will surely leave him at one point.

factsandfigures:
This is the same AGF and Shehu that vehemently defended Magu when PMB was around. What has changed?............The hawks in the north has started their evil machinations of bullying Osibanjo out of ASO Rock by causing controversies and digging trap holes for him.....Please where are the Zombies? Have they lost their voices

Is that why you are double faced with this Aba version of English? Yesterday, they hate Osibanjo, today they care, pls pack your things and get out of this country.

Vp

yeah, IT IS A GAY!

I have no idea why the executhieves are hell bent on confirming magu as efcc boss! For crying out loud, magu is not the only "saint" we have in Nigeria. So they mean if magu is indisposed then the efcc would not function again? Fighting corruption is not an individual based job but an institutionalized based requirement. Putting one man at the fore front of this whole corruption fight seems fishy and suspicious.

While the last administration was strengthen institutions this present one is strengthen magu!
Indeed wonders shall never end, let's watch this movie to the end because at the end, the institutions last while the individual moves ahead.
This government never learns, they might end up removing magu after all this drama as they are known for going back to their vomits.

This statement of yours shows you have no brain at all. You don't know politics that why the thieves keep scamming us.

naijagobetter:
Osibanjo should do away with these saboteurs to set an example, better stil he should go to OBJ for a crash course on how to deal with these criminals that parade themselves as leaders, mehn..! In cases like this kwankwaso comes to mind.

Prof. Oshinbajo should be more proactive, the last time I checked it is the people that elected him into the post and he has the authority going for him, but the same cannot be said for impostors like Saraki. He must not be like mumu GEJ who allow people to heat up the polity at will. He must strategically dissolve the house and senate and call for a general election as per the provisions of the constitution, in order to flush out these crop of Dirty politicking, Corrupt, overated, incompetent, lots in the legislation. Right from the impostor called Saraki to the last thieve in the house to ursher in a new crop of people with fresh ideas to move Nigeria forward.

Most Zombies have received sense. I use to be supportive of PMB/PYO but for two years plus now, they have been a government of the more you look, the less you see.

I Choose not to give up on Nigeria though.

Magu’s confirmation controversy: Sagay, others knock AGF, El-Rufai says Magu’ll remain EFCC chairman



The Chairman, Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), has said going by the constitution, any minister, who openly disagrees with Acting President Yemi Osinbajo, risks being sacked for insubordination.



Sagay said this in a statement on Thursday.

The PACAC chairman therefore berated the Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN), for taking a separate stance from Osinbajo over the refusal of the Senate to confirm the acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, Ibrahim Magu.

A few hours after Malami had said Osinbajo did not consult the Federal Executive Council before saying the executive did not need Senate confirmation for Magu to function, Buhari’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, described the acting President’s comment as a ‘‘personal opinion.’’

Malami, who is also the Minister of Justice, had, while briefing State House correspondents after the weekly FEC meeting on Wednesday, said Osinbajo’s statement that Magu did not need Senate confirmation was a personal opinion and not that of the body of ministers.

However, Sagay said Malami was out of order because the constitution stated clearly that the opinion or decision of the President or acting President was final and could not be questioned by any minister.

Also, the Centre for Anti-Corruption and Open Leadership believed those opposing the acting President could be saboteurs in the Presidency while a Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Norrison Quakers, pointed out that a situation where officials of government disagree with the head of that government was dangerous.

Sagay explained that any minister, who openly disagreed with the President or the acting President, deserved to be sacked going by Section 5(1) of the 1999 Constitution, which states that executive powers of the Federation shall be vested in the President, not in the Executive Council of the Federation.

He argued that ministers and the FEC had no executive authority outside what was granted them by the President or Acting President.

The PACAC chairman, a senior advocate of Nigeria, added, “The Executive Council of the Federation, also known as FEC, cannot have views that are separate or different from those of the President, or where applicable, the Acting President; otherwise, that will constitute gross insubordination and misconduct that can lead to dismissal.

“Therefore, the slant being given to the statement of the Attorney General of the Federation, namely; that the Executive Council of the Federation is entitled to meet in order to express an opinion or view on a matter on which the President or Acting President has already expressed his views or opinions is wrong, misleading and totally unconstitutional.”

Also, the CACOL feared that there could be saboteurs in the Presidency, who were not comfortable with the fight against corruption and who would want Magu removed.

The CACOL Director, Debo Adeniran, said, “Some of those ministers appointed by President Buhari are those who will not support him to fight corruption hands down. There are several executives in the Presidency who will be sabotaging the bids of the President and the acting President.

“We know that the ascendancy of this administration to power rests on its readiness to fight corruption. The EFCC chairman has been able to demonstrate courage, standing eyeball-to-eyeball with people who feel they are larger than life.’’

In his reaction, another SAN, Mr. Norrison Quakers, said the development was not healthy for the polity as it portrayed the Federal Government as a house divided against itself.

Quakers stated, “Quite frankly speaking, this is not healthy for the polity; it strikes at the heart of our constitutional democracy.

‘‘Therefore, if he (acting President) expressed any opinion, it should not be seen as a personal opinion.

“This development portrays the Federal Government as a house divided against itself.”

Quakers, who recalled that even before Buhari proceeded on his medical vacation in the United Kingdom, he had, through his spokesman, stated that Magu would continue to act as the EFCC chairman.

He explained that Osinbajo’s position was not at variance with Buhari’s position.

He added, “As the Chief Law Officer of the nation, the AGF is not expected to toe any political line on any issues but to state the position of the law.

‘‘It is not healthy for a member of the Federal Executive Council to speak against the acting President, to say that what the acting President said was his personal opinion.”

However, a Lagos-based lawyer, Mr. Dele Adeogun, said the differences between the executive and the legislature over Magu’s position should be subjected to judicial interpretation rather than for the legislature to say it would no longer screen any appointee sent to it by the executive.

Presidency to retain Magu as EFCC chair, says el-Rufai

Meanwhile, the Kaduna State Governor, Mallam Nasir el-Rufai, on Thursday, declared that the Presidency had decided that it would retain Magu as the head of the EFCC.

El-Rufai, who represented Osinbajo at the inauguration of the Kaduna office of the EFCC, noted that as long as the President Buhari – led administration lasted, Magu would not be removed.

“I had a discussion with the President (Buhari) on the Magu issue. He said he has every confidence in the work that the commission, led by Magu, is doing, and as long as he (Buhari) is President, you (Magu) remain the chairman of the EFCC.

“For those who believe that Magu is their nightmares, he will remain there for the next two years. I spoke with the Acting President last night (Wednesday) and he affirmed what the President said,” el-Rufai said.

He added that he had recovered over N500m without making any noise from past government officials and contractors in the state, stating that the corrupt officials would be handed over to the commission for prosecution.

Magu, in his address at the event, called for the establishment of ‘special’ prisons for corrupt Nigerians at the Sambisa Forest, said to be the stronghold of the terror sect, Boko Haram, in the past.

He said this would be possible if only the judiciary would cooperate with the commission

Buhari should do the "needful" so that osinbajo can deal with these basta*ds

seunmsg:
A very cheap attempt at damage control. The attack on the acting president was well coordinated and Nigerians can easily read between the lines. The senate attacked him on Tuesday, the AGF attacked him on Wednesday in a manner never seen before and Garba Shehu completed the attack by reinforcing the exact statement that Malami is now claiming was distorted.

Whatever the case, the acting president cannot be cowed or bullied, he will remain the president until Buhari comes back to take over. Magu will also remain the acting chairman of EFCC until the presidency says otherwise.

Afonja don dey sweat

What Malami & that imbec!le Garba Shehu have just done, shows clearly that it's just a matter of time before the North kicks out the Ag. President via a 'constitutional' coup d'etat and that singular act will certify the death of Nigeria.

MirJay:


the Agf is nothing but a fool. He ought to obey the office of the acting president instead he is proving how foolish he can be.

Categorically speaking he should be sacked and replaced immediately.

They no born Osibaby well, make he try sack anybody. U wan kill am?

temptnow:
Don't mind the useless Afonjas, they're more concerned about Nnamdi kanu that is giving them sleepless nights

Oga leave afonja alone..

Am idoma and I say nnamdi cownu is a very stupid slowpoke

The presidency should take the right step by changing magu ,is Magu the only saint among 200million people?,.Anyway bubu has always shown crass rascality from disobeying court orders to disobeying legislative functions.APC are hell bent on weaking Nigerian Institution.When both they judiciary and the Legislators start flouting executive functions let us not shout.Anyway it looks like both Yoruba's and Hausa/Fulani's are also hell bent on killing this country,so why are people shouting about the Igbo's that wants to bring the coffin?.

Buhari please just come back and do what has to be done

why

temptnow:
Don't mind the useless Afonjas, they're more concerned about Nnamdi kanu that is giving them sleepless nights

Aso rock is on fire. Pmb is hiding, Evan is kidnaping, kanu is talking and every thing scatter scatter ;->;-> gboza gbozaa

Thank God the Prof,the Acting president is a Proffessor of law & won't just take a position on any legal issue without detail consideration,this the minister of justice should know but unfortunately he seems not to be versed on certain matters ..he needs to be tutored on leadership matters..Never say your boss is wrong;it is foolishness to do so in the public.

Its very obvious.A nation can not be greater than the mind of its leaders...No never No never never.

Why is senate also finding it hard to confirm him?

Malami is a very useless human being by making such comment. after you refused to consult your mind before spitting none sense now you are looking for a branch to perch on and let me tell none of them can save you if you are not careful.

The useless Attorney General of the Federation, Mr. Abubakar Malami is a stupid cow. You'd expect him to be ashamed of himself for not bringing any corrupt politician to book since he has been in office. There's indeed no honour among thieves.
