If Buhari Is To Suddenly Drop Dead There Will Be A Constitutional Crisis by SluttanSlayer: 11:05am On Feb 27, 2019
Not wishing anyone dead, but assuming the Kogi scenario pans out , I think we are going to have a serious problem ?

How? Osinbanjo can not be sworn in just like Faleke in Kogi. Osinbanjo can assume the role of president up on till may 29. And given that Buhari emerged as the APC flag bearer by consensus and not through primaries, the APC can not field any one from their camp. Yahaha Bello came second in the APC primaries in Kogi and that was why the APC where able to field him for the election. In the event that Buhari suddenly slumps and dies before May 29, Osinbanjo can not continue as President beyond May 29 and since there was no primaries that led to Buhari emerging as the APC candidate , his party can not field a replacement .

The only individual that is expected to assume the role of interim president will be the CJN since the Senate would not have been inaugurated on May 29 and so there won't be any SP .

I think they are two different scenarios, in the case of Kogi State Prince Abubakar Audu had not been declared winner, collation was still ongoing he was only leading and clear favorite to win. But in this case a winner has been declared so the vice can be sworn in

i stand to be corrected

Buhari 's second term commences from May 29.

Osinbanjo has not yet been sworn in as his deputy for a second term, and since Buhari and not Osinbanjo is to be administered the oath of office as President .

The only case scenario , I see is that the CJN will take over as interim president until the senate is inaugurated and from there fresh elections will be conducted .

If the unexpected happens (God forbid though) there will be no constitutional crisis because both of them were duly elected on the 23 of February. If you can cast your mind back to 1999, Atiku Abubakar was elected the governor of Adamawa state before Obasanjo pick him as his vice & Atiku's running mate in the person of Bonny Haruna who was suppose to be the vice was sworn in as the governor of the state & the Supreme court ruled that both Atiku & Haruna were both elected together.

I don't see why they will do that since Osinbanjo can not be sworn in as President

And since the current acting CJN is a northerner, I think they will be comfortable having him oversee and conduct fresh elections .

OK, that's a fresh revelation for me.

So that means Osinbanjo can be sworn in then

Osinbajo will take over.
This is a different case from Kogi. In case no winner had emerged when Audu died but in this case, there’s a president elect with a vp elect

you are correct. the Electoral Act provides for Death of the contestant Before and after election have been conducted and a winner declared. After election, the running mates assumes office but before election the party can choose someone else to take the place of the deseased.
