  it happens - lady marries man, then first year no child, second, third and fourth year still no child - by the fifth year, the husband's family start piling pressure on him and before you can say Jack, they bring another woman into the home or marry another wife for him secretly - and they have a favourite proverb for this kind of thing in yorubaland "ori omo lo'n pe omo waye" (translation: the arrival of a baby is a spiritual trigger for other children) and thus wifey has to deal with a rival - so ladies, if your husband decides to marry a new wife owing to your inability to concieve - what would you do?

Sun Girls right?

yep!

this can be a very tough one - loyalty vs conscience - if you caught your friend's lady (as in fiance or girlfriend) pants down with another man, would you spill the beans by telling your friend or would you keep quiet so as not to be labelled a home breaker? many have faced this dilemna in the past - if it was you, what would you do?

found the pictures of these stunning babes online - 9ja babes are pretty! (though we have some wowo girls too ) let's celebrate our pretty girls - feel free to post pictures of any other beautiful 9ja girl you may have found either on NL or anywhere

A lot of christians assume it's a sin and would not do it - as christians i would like to believe too it's a sin though some people might differ. But even sleeping with your partner, we as humans still commit all kinds of sin everyday and the bible says our righteousness is like filthy rags to God - is intimacy with our partners the greatest sin we can commit as a christian?

it does not make u carnal - i have a similar experience myself - if the urge is too great - as the Lord to help you, or stop the guy from coming near you in close confinement in an attempt to prevent intimacy - also pray constanly - best of luck

maybe if u read it properly u will find out that he said it happened to sum1 else not him. sheez! u girls sef, na wa!

As ailing President UmarU Yar’Adua spends his 84th day in the royal hospital in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia today, members of his family, most of whom are in the Islamic country now are praying feverishly for a miracle for him to recover.

P.M.NEWS gathered that the two daughters of Yar’Adua who are married to some state governors, have joined their mother, Turai, in Saudi Arabia to pray for their breadwinner to recover from his present debilitating illness.

The family’s marabout, it was learnt, has also been summoned to Jeddah for a round the clock prayers for Yar’Adua, who, sources said, has lost weight tremendously and still in the intensive care unit at the King Faisal Hospital in Saudi Arabia. According to sources close to the hospital, President Yar’adua’s weight has shrunk to 38kg from the 45kg that he weighed before he was flown to Saudi Arabia on 23 November.

According to sources, the president’s serious emaciation explained why the wife disallowed members of the House of Representatives who came on a goodwill visit, to see him.

Five members of the House of Representatives, Alhaji Baba Shehu Agie, the Deputy Majority Leader, who led the team, Alhaji Mohammed Ndume (Minority Leader), Patrick Ikhariale, Jubril Adamu and Fatai Moruf, who went to Saudi Arabia last week had returned to Abuja, mission unaccomplished. The team saw only the First Lady, Turai.

Yar’Adua’s long absence from the country led to a vacuum in the leadership which was filled last Tuesday when the National Assembly passed a motion empowering Vice President Jonathan as acting president.

This action of the National Assembly is now being challenged by a former minority leader in the House of Representatives, Mr. Farouk Aliyu Adamu and an Abuja based lawyer, Ataguba Aboje, Both are asking the court to declare the motion passed by the National Assembly recognising Jonathan as acting president, null and void.

They said since Yar’Adua was not declared incapacitated by the Federal Executive Council (FEC), as demanded by Section 144 of the 1999 constitution, nor did he transmit a letter to the National Assembly of his intention to seek medical treatment abroad which would have automatically made Jonathan the acting president, as directed by Section 145 of the Constitution, the Vice President cannot be elevated to the position of an acting president.

Also, activists of the Save Nigeria Group (SNG), Prof. Wole Soyinka, Pastor Tunde Bakare of the Latter Rain Assembly and others have called on the Federal Executive Council to immediately invoke Section 144 of the nation’s constitution to remove President Yar’Adua from office so that Jonathan can be declared full president.

Soyinka and others at the end of their meeting in Lagos said: “It had become imperative that a logical and constitutional process of installing Jonathan as President with a Vice- President must commence immediately with the Executive Council of the Federation passing a resolution declaring Yar’Adua incapacitated in compliance with Section 144 of the constitution.

“We insist that the session where the resolution would be taken must be beamed live on National Television.”

The activists argued that the invocation of Section 144 would not only permanently resolve the logjam but would restore the esteem of Nigerians which had been badly damaged by all sort of lies which the criminal cabal had fed them with in the last 84 days on the health of the President “as we press for the prosecution of all those involved in the forging of the signature of the President on the supplementary budget.”

“Failure by the Executive Council of the Federation to carry out this demand by its next two sittings (17 and 24, February, 2010) will attract the wrath of Nigerians and SNG and its allies will storm Abuja in a big way to insist on doing the right thing to save our country from the snare of the cabal programming Nigeria for avoidable disaster.”

Soyinka and his group stated that SNG’s protest marches in Abuja, Lagos, London, and New York were motivated by the need to restore the dignity of Nigeria and its people through a constitutional resolution of the power hijack by a cabal which “kidnapped a sick man who is incapable of knowing what is going on and acting in his name to subvert the will of the people and orderliness in our Country, and not just an anyhow pronouncement of Dr. Jonathan as an ‘’Acting President.”

“The pronouncement by the National Assembly making Dr. Jonathan “Acting President” by a strange interpretation of a questionable BBC interview as a substitute for the written declaration the President ought to have made before leaving the country, amounts to rigging and a manipulation of Section 145 of the Constitution.

“Only the unwary will not see through the booby trap in having an “Acting President’’ who is not sworn in by those who got an outgoing Chief Justice of Nigeria to swear in his successor,” they said.

According to them, ”while we want Dr. Jonathan to assume full Presidential powers, his natural right by the constitution, we reject the extra constitutional invocation of the “doctrine of necessity,’’ which is a dangerous precedent that could become handy to execute an unpopular agenda against the people in the future.”

“Apart from placing one man and his kidnappers above the Nation, Nigeria has once again been presented with a Shonekan who was kicked out unceremoniously by General Sanni Abacha after a court declared the contraption he headed illegal in 1993. We are not ready to go that route anymore,” they warned.

Others at the meeting are Mr. Solomon Asemota (SAN), Lt. Gen. Alani Akinrinade (Rtd), Mr. ‘Yinka Odumakin, Hon. Uche Onyeogocha and Mallam Salihu Lukman

Stoke FC star, Seyi Olofinjana, has no pity for his erstwhile coach in the Super Eagles, Shuaibu Amodu, for losing his job.

The Eagles’ midfielder said the former Orlando Pirates of South Africa gaffer was responsible for his woes in the senior national team.

Seyi, who Amodu benched throughout at the recently concluded Angola 2010 Africa Cup of Nations, said the players knew that Amodu won’t survive the hammer of the Nigeria Football Federation, NFF, after the Eagles claimed an undeserved quarter final victory over the Chipolopolo of Zambia; an explosive match that Nigeria narrowly won through penalty shoot-outs.

According to Seyi, “the players saw the handwriting on the wall in Angola, that Amodu was on his way out of the team, especially after the match against Zambia.”

Politicians loyal to President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua massed in Jeddah weekend, claiming to be on a goodwill visit to the hospitalised president, in what is, however, seen as a strategy meeting on how to tackle the acting president, Goodluck Jonathan.  The pro-Yar’Adua politicians who are now in Saudi Arabia include Governors Gabriel Suswan (Benue), Ibrahim Shema (Katsina, the president’s home state), and Isa Yuguda,  president’s son-in-law (Bauchi).
 The trio left Nigeria last Thursday and arrived in Jeddah on Friday. They have since been joined by Alhaji Usman Dakingari, Governor of Kebbi State, another son-in-law of Yar’Adua.

Also, last Friday, Prince Vincent Ogbulafor, National Chairman of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP); Dr Haliru Bello Mohammed, Deputy National Chairman; and Alhaji Kawu Baraje, Deputy National Secretary arrived in the kingdom.

It is believed that Chief Mike Aondoakaa (SAN), who was removed as Attorney General of the Federation last week and redeployed as special duties minister by the acting president, has also left Nigeria for Saudi Arabia.

Aondoakaa was said to have taken permission to make a short trip to Europe. But the claim has been described as a trick to join the group in the oil-rich kingdom.

THISDAY, however, gathered that five members of the House of Representatives, sent by the Lower Chamber of the National Assembly to pay a goodwill to the president, were not part of the pro-Yar’Adua group as they have returned yesterday without seeing Yar’Adua.

The five-member team consisting of Hon. Baba Shehu Agaei, Minority Leader of the House; Mallam Mohammed Ndume; Mallam Jibrin Adamu; Mr. Patrick Ikhariahle; and Mr. Fatai Moruf met the First Lady, Hajiya Turai Yar’Adua.

The visiting Yar’Adua loyalists have held several meetings in the last three days with Hajiya Yar’Adua; Ambas-sador Garba Aminci, Nigeria’s Ambassador to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia; with the President’s daughter, Zainab, and the Chief Security Officer to the President, Yusuf Tilde, also attending some of the meetings.

Mallam Muntaka Rabe, the First Lady’s former personal assistant who is now Executive Secretary of Petroleum Tax Development Fund (PTDF), and Alhaji Isa Chanraci, protocol officer to the First Lady, are said to be in Saudi Arabia as well. It is, however, not clear whether the two bureaucrats are part of the anti-Jonathan plot going on in the oil-rich kingdom.

Members of the group had been shocked by the speed with which the acting presidency arrangement caught on in the National Assembly, which they thought they had under their control.

The meetings in Saudi Arabia are therefore meant to refocus the group’s plans, as they believe power is fast slipping from their grip.

Giving an insight into the deliberations at the Saudi meetings, Mallam Nasir el- Rufai, former Minister of Federal Capital Territory, in a memo on the state of the nation at the weekend, noted that the group is plotting to file a law suit challenging the constitutionality of Jonathan’s ascension to the position of Acting President.

It is believed that the Yar’Adua group’s strategy is to file a suit which will be a means of waging psychological battle against the acting president and, therefore, slow him down in his effort to carry out far-reaching reforms in the administration.

El-Rufai wrote, “The Yar’Adua people have already approached (an Abuja-based lawyer) to file a lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of Goodluck’s ascension. My sources indicate that he has declined after the last judicial disaster engineered by Aondoakaa and Justice Dan Abutu. But they will find another Abuja-based lawyer. And with the current leadership in the judiciary reportedly close to Aondoakaa, the ascension may go the way of Shonekan’s ING.”

Some of Yar’Adua’s loyalists are also said to be exploring means of getting the President back to Nigeria “as soon as practicable.” Members of the group, who subscribe to this option, believe that once the doctors in the Saudi hospital can give them the nod that the President is strong enough to travel, they will want him back in Abuja.

To achieve this plan, members of this group are discussing with the Saudi authorities to provide a 20-seater air ambulance for the President’s journey back or to fully equip the presidential jet for the purpose. “They are just waiting for any significant improvement in the President’s condition which will make him strong enough to travel back and continue his treatment in Nigeria. They believe if he is in town, he can effectively checkmate the acting presidency arrangement,” a source said.

A source, however, said apart from using the court process to torpedo the arrangement that produced Jonathan as acting president, the Yar’Adua loyalists are also planning to mobilise traditional rulers, social political groups and opinion leaders in the North to drum up the fact that the arrangement that produced Jonathan is unconstitutional and can short-change the North.

El-Rufai had in his memo named a group consisting Alhaji Tanko Yakassai, Dr. Bello Haliru Mohammed, Senator Ibrahim Mantu, and Alhaji Hassan Adamu as having been put together to start a campaign indicating that the North has been excluded from national leadership again.

THISDAY gathered that the pro-Yar’Adua group are not only scheming on how to undermine the Jonathan acting presidency arrangement, but are also executing options that can be adopted in case the president is not back in the country early enough to be able to be part of the electioneering process for 2011 polls.

The group is also planning to ensure they influence the choice of the presidential candidate of PDP in 2011, THISDAY learns.

“The Yar’Adua group is being pro-active. They are plotting beyond the immediate period. They are planning against a situation where Yar’Adua is unable to return to power. They want to ensure the acting president Goodluck Jonathan does not start getting ideas to become the PDP flagbearer in 2011. Part of the strategy sessions held in Jeddah is to ensure that the group has a plan B on how to produce a presidential candidate who will fly the PDP flag with Jonathan as running mate,” a source said.

Following Yar’Adua’s absence from the country for 78 days due to his illness and his failure to transmit a written communication to the leadership of the National Assembly to enable his deputy, Jonathan, to formally take over power in acting capacity, the National Assembly last Tuesday passed a resolution recognising Jonathan as acting president. The federal legislature acted on a suggestion made by the Governors’ Forum. Other eminent Nigerians, civil society groups and professional groups had made similar calls.

The Senate said it applied the Doctrine of Necessity to take the president’s interview on British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), in which he said he was recuperating in the Saudi hospital and would be back at home whenever his doctors advised him to do so, as the recommended transmission of a letter informing its leadership that he was on medical vacation.

The Senate resolution was followed by a similar move by the House of Representatives the same day. Jonathan has since resumed as acting president and Commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces.

come to think of it, the lady can sing!!! forget the lyrics and focus on the tunes and the percusion - i was dancing all through

lets look at it what's the definition of pr-os-ti-tu-te? - the dictionary defines it as - a person usually a woman who has s-e-x in exchange for money - now let us look at things critically, how many women would have intimacy with a woman without any form of gratification - few if any - a woman who is expecting her boyfriend to buy recharge cards for her or to take her to mr biggs or tantaliser before she can open her legs for him, what do we call such? and moreso, the ladies who stand by the roadside or stand at hotel entrances soliciting for customers are better than a lot who do not do so - just because a woman is not standing by the roadside does not mean she is not a love-peddler - the roadside ones are better because they are honest enough to tell you their intentions - "money for hand, back for ground" - at least a man knows what he is getting into - the worst ones are those who say they love you and yet what they are after is the content of your wallet - so are we right as a society to condemn love-peddlers?

i wud do it - left to me it's a must - we all know our ladies are great pretenders - i think it's best to seek spiritual counsel before settling finaly with a partner but some would argue against this - what do you think?

THE division between the Senate and the House of Representatives appeared to have received a further boost during the week, notwithstanding the decision of the two chambers to jointly recognise Vice-President Goodluck Jonathan as acting president

Sources at a closed door session between the leadership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and the leadership of the National Assembly told the Saturday Tribune that the Speaker, Oladimeji Bankole, could not hide his anger that the Senate and its president, David Mark led the House by the nose to pass the motion on acting presidency.

Bankole was said to have told the closed door meeting that the House was ready to abide by the decision of the PDP leadership to maintain the status quo in the Presidency and shun the passage of the motion on acting president.

He was also said to have asked the leaders to blame Senator David Mark and the Senators for causing the House to pass the motion, against the directive of the PDP leaders.

The Speaker was also said to have insisted that the house was determined to stick to the directive of the PDP that the status quo in the Villa must be maintained and that the resolution, if any should affirm the sanctity of the ruling of the Chief Judge of the Federal High Court, Justice Dan Abutu, which indicated that the Vice-President can only perform the functions of the President without being named acting President.

“The Speaker told the National Working Committee members of the PDP that he was leading the House of Representatives in a way that no fresh motion on acting president would emerge on the floor and that his foot soldiers in the chamber would always ensure compliance.

DELECTABLE actress, Funke Akindele who has won several awards to her credit, is no doubt one of the most sought after actresses in the Nigerian movie industry.

This phenomenal talent, popularly called Sulia Kan by her fans, a name got from her most successful movie Jenifa as is already putting finishing touches to the release of Jenifa 3 with the title The Return of Jenifa.

In not too recent past, it was rumoured that Funke was working on releasing Jennifa 3, but the story was promptly debunked by the actress.

But unlike what movie buff thought, Funke who is due to release a new work with the title Return of Jenifa by the end of the year, says the movie is not a continuation of Jenifa 2. “Jenifa 3, is entirely a different story which also bears a name with the original movie. Further more, Ejiwunmi, another block buster from her stable, is also due for release next month.

The Arewa Consultative Forum (ACF) has discreetly constituted a special ad-hoc team to monitor initial actions and developments in the Presidency under Mr. Goodluck Jonathan, The Nation has learnt.

At a special meeting in Kaduna on Tuesday, members of the team met to work out modalities and resolutions that can enable the Presidency perform without hindrance or distraction from people who may have links with ACF.

The fulfilment of Jonathan’s alleged pledge to some individuals on the necessity of transparent 2011 elections appears to be the overriding consideration in ACF’s decision to give him all the necessary support.

Although he insisted that no committee was set up to monitor developments, ACF’s Publicity Secretary, Mr. Anthony Sani and Alhaji Abdulrahman Mohammed, a member of its executive council, asserted that among other expectations, the North is giving priority to preparations for credible elections in 2011.

"Acting President Goodluck Jonathan is a product of luck, national consensus and forces of national unity; as a result, the nation would expect him to bring Nigerians together so that they can unleash their collective potentials. He needs to hasten electoral reforms so that peoples’ votes will count and produce leaders who will have abiding faith in peoples’ judgement by 2011.

"Jonathan’s government should try to make a difference in the lives of people and enable a good number of Nigerians across the country to make differences in their own lives and those of others," Sani, a lawyer stated.

Members in two existing committees of the ACF –the ACF Strategy Committee and its Rapid Response Committee – along with members of its national executive council participated at Tuesday’s meeting of the team.

Members of the Strategy Committee include Alhaji Abdurahman Mohammed, General Ali Magoro (rtd), General Wushishi (rtd), Col Isa Kachako (rtd) and a former minister, Alhaji Murtala Aliyu.

Membership of the ACF Rapid Response Committee includes officials of the body such as the ACF Secretary-General, Col. Musa Shehu (rtd), its Publicity Secretary, Mr Anthony Sani, ACF’s Legal Adviser, Mr. Bitrus Gwaddah and the Secretary of Niger State chapter of ACF.

Others at the meeting included ACF’s Treasurer, Alhaji Aliko M. Mohammed and Hajia Halima Alfa, a member of ACF’s National Working Committee.

Speaking with The Nation On Saturday, a member of the ACF, Alhaji Abdulrahman Mohammed, denied the existence of a committee to handle such responsibilities, adding that only a committee on Jos crises, led by General A. D. Mamman, met on Tuesday.

However, he acknowledged that ACF has worked out plans to keep abreast of developments around the Jonathan administration and curb the machinations of persons with selfish agenda who might also want to derail his good intentions.

"We have had enough of this predicament that Nigeria has entered into and we want to give full support to Jonathan. If we find that anybody is trying to distract Jonathan, we will speak up immediately because we want him to get things right", he said.

While other nations that will vie for honours at the World Cup holding in South Africa in June are already perfecting their strategies, Nigeria is still searching for the coach, who will tinker the Super Eagles to the tournament.

As at the last count, no fewer than 13 foreign coaches have been linked to the Super Eagles' job, as the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) continues the search for a replacement for Coach Shaibu Amodu.

Many expressed doubts about the ability of Amodu to guide the Super Eagles to a successful outing at the World Cup finals in South Africa after Nigeria's miraculous qualification for the mundial, but the football ruling body had passed a vote of confidence on the embattled coach, vowing to swim and sink with him prior to the Nations Cup in Angola.

However, despite meeting the benchmark of a semi-final berth at the last Nations Cup, the NFF has finally admitted a foreign tactician is inevitable if Nigeria must avoid a disgraceful outing in the Rainbow Nation in June.

In fact, the search for an expatriate coach began in Angola while the Nations Cup was still on. Nooj, Renard, Claude Le Roy, Milorad Rajevac, Hassan Shehata and Bonfrere Jo are some of the names that were reported to have held talks with officials of the Nigerian contingent in Angola.
Other names on the shop list of the NFF include Guus Hiddink, Peter Taylor, Rotimir Djukovic, Louis Van Gaal, Kaspaczak and Giovani Trapattoni among others.

One man, who raised the alarm early enough that Amodu did not have what it takes to guide the Nigerian team to the World Cup, is former Green Eagles' prolific left-winger, Felix Owolabi. The former Shooting Stars' player, whose bullet shots earned him the nickname, 'Owoblow', has described the NFF as a body of non-serious persons, who are merely deceiving Nigerians.
According to him, Nigerians should not take the NFF seriously, as none of the high-profile foreign coaches on the bloated list being brandished for the Eagles' job would end up as a replacement for Amodu.

"The NFF is a body of non-serious people. They are not telling Nigerians the truth. They are only deceiving themselves. I blame the sporting press for the undue publicity on the search for a foreign coach," Owoblow fumed in a chat with Saturday Sunsport.
"If NFF officials are serious, they should have got a quality foreign coach before the Nations Cup in Angola. The coach should have been on ground in Angola to assess the Super Eagles at the tournament.

“You can imagine that while other teams that will campaign at the World Cup in South Africa are busy perfecting their strategies, we are still looking for a coach barely three months to the championship. The coach, who will eventually come now, already has an excuse that he has little time to work," he reasoned.

"My heart bleeds for Nigerian football. The current NFF has dragged our football 10 years back. If they were serious, they should have known the best coach to employ instead of holding talks with all the coaches in this world.

“At the moment, we don't have a team for the World Cup. We don't have the players and there is no coach. Only a jobless coach will accept the Super Eagles' job.

"Hassan Shehata won't come because he is busy. He has a contract running with the Egyptian national team. It's a shame that we're talking about a short-term contract for the coach to come. That tells you that the NFF has no vision. They are not interested in developing the game in Nigeria.

The truth is that NFF has no particular coach in mind. They are deceiving Nigerians. Some of us will not stop in saying the truth," Owoblow stressed

Outspoken pastor and leader of the Latter-Rain Assembly, Pastor Tunde Bakare, has said that it is not yet uhuru in the country despite National Assembly’s pronouncement of Vice President Goodluck Jonathan as acting president.

In an exclusive interview with Saturday Sun, he said that with the current arrangement the country is still in danger, as, according to him, if anything happens to Jonathan, when there is no vice president, the nation will have problems.

Pastor Bakare asked the National Assembly to set up a medical team to examine the state of health of President Umar Yar’Adua, adding that if it is discovered that he is incapacitated, Jonathan should be sworn in as president, while a vice president is appointed.
He said that the Jonathan he saw on television on Tuesday was afraid, adding: “He is not comfortable on that seat and I don’t see how he can perform well on that seat when he has no proper authority to function.”
Bakare spoke on these and other issues.

Nigerians were surprised when you joined others to protest in the street at Abuja and Lagos. What informed your decision?
Well, first and foremost, it was a sense of duty and secondly a patriotic responsibility because we all cannot shut our eyes and watch what will spell doom and disintegration for our nation. The Bible called the church the salt of the earth and the light of the world. We must be involved in what is going on around us. We cannot live in a secure Island of prosperity in what I call the quick sound of poverty. As the salt of the earth we must step into every situation that would not contradict our faith. And we must maintain contact without contamination.

There is the criticism that as a man of God, you should have considered the fact that Yar’Adua is a humanbeing and he could fall ill at any time.
The truth of the matter is not that it is not the fault of Mr. President to be ill. It could happen to any humanbeing. If you go by proper records, how many people welcomed him, dancing and rejoicing that for the first time we had a graduate elected in the seat of power who will be able to read properly between lines and do what is right? And nobody is faulting him on the ground of sickness and I want you to remember that the Abuja rally took place 50 days after he had abandon the ship. And he was made to abandonee the ship because nobody can say categorically his state of health and the state of his mind at the time he was flown abroad.

If the leadership of the nation had taken care of our health care delivery system and invested in the health sector very well, some of the doctors from Nigeria attending to them in Saudi Arabia will stay in their country and attend to them here. It is a pathetic situation that the country is sick and unfortunately is now headed by a sick president. The difference between Nigeria and Mr. President is that the president is receiving expensive treatment abroad and Nigeria is receiving none.

Therefore, 50 days after the hallowed chambers rediscovered being filled with shallow minds and nothing constructive was being done, we felt it is part of the prophetic responsibility not only to take to the street but to tell the government that enough was enough, so that our people can be properly enlightened and they can rise in what I call civilian revolt to take power away from those who have hijacked it. The common thing they were saying was power vacuum.

There was no power vacuum in Nigeria but there was power hijack. Those who were not elected took over the responsibilities of Mr. President and were executing his agenda without his consent and without being in proper mind frame and without transmitting anything to anyone. If that does not concern Nigerians, it will then mean that we are a bunch of irresponsible citizens.

Goodluck Jonathan has been pronounced acting president. Are you satisfied?
Who pronounced him acting president?

The National Assembly
The National Assembly simply passed a resolution and I saw him last night like a weather beaten, battered and totally afraid man reading from a telly- printer from the wall, a statement that has been written for him without any conviction or persuasion from his body language. Yes, to a certain extent, they have followed the doctrine of necessity. I just want to remind the nation that necessity may be the mother of invention; it is not necessarily the mother of virtues. I can’t see any legal backing for what they have done. Constitutionally speaking, I think we should go a step further.

The reason I am saying that is a resolution based on a letter transmitted by the president to the Senate or to the National Assembly would necessarily warrant their resolution, which could help resolve the constitutional logjam by stepping up the role of the vice president to that of acting president. That is within the framework and the mindset of the law. I am also a student of the Bible. Most of the time, Jesus Himself thought that it is the spirit that gives life, the word that I speak on to you, they are spirit and they are live. Whether the content of what he said, if he was the one who spoke over BBC Hausa, is another thing.

We have not even established if he was the one who spoke. But let us assume he did and let us assume he was publicized and it was on every website, we take it that the man was not in a state of mind to write a letter when he was going and he had found a way of communicating , saying, ‘I am perennially sick, I don’t know when I will recover and I don’t know when I am returning,’ then what the Senate and the House of Representatives reluctantly did will not be out of place.

But there is danger. The danger now is that we are back to the time of the military when a governor is replaced with a sole administrator, especially during transition period. The reason I am saying that is, we now have an acting president and there is a vacancy in the office of the vice president. If anything goes haywire or if Mr. Goodluck is kidnapped or anything happens to him then you make Mark the necessary administrator to fill the gap again. In no time, you are back in square one. Remember, yes it was a near unanimous decision but not everybody supported it. So, expect litigation in the days to come by those who are pro-Yar’Adua and we don’t know the mindset of Turai, who had essentially been head of state since November last year. She pulled the lever wherever she is.

The woman was never voted into power.
So, there is still a gap with the sole administrator, who is called the acting president. If we may ask, before he became acting president, what authority did he have to order the military to go to Jos? Maybe you now backdate authority and sign it or whatever it is. I don’t think it is Huhuru yet. The proper thing must still be done. If these people are thinking reasonably he ought to write before leaving. He left 70 or 80 days ago; you are now translating and interpreting what you heard on BBC radio – a voice you have not even confirmed that it is the person who spoke.

I think what we need to do is to bury our heads in shame and do things properly. Dora Akuyili has presented a memo and we have also read in the paper that it was not listed last Wednesday. Let us hope that it would be listed and let us hope that they would do the proper thing. They should constitute a proper medical panel to determine his state of health. I am of the considered opinion that our president is incapacitated. I am of the considered opinion that he could not be seen without the nation being frightened by what has remained of the president. If he is totally incapacitated, we do not need a president that is plugged to a life-support machine in Abuja.

That is not the purpose of Aso Rock and of the office of the President. He should be taken to Katsina when he is discharged so that he can recover. Let him write his memo as somebody who served the nation to the best of his ability before the health situation cropped in. Let the Senate set up a proper medical team to determine the state of his health, establish his incapacity, swear in Goodluck as president and fill the office of the vice president and we can begin to look at issues more accurately. Until then, there is still instability everywhere.

Do you think Jonathan can now effectively discharge the functions of president?
You look at the circumstances that brought the president to a position of authority. Let me take it from there. The state governors are afraid of being exposed. They pleaded with the Senate. If money passed hands and looting continues, a destructive means cannot bring about a constructive end. We would soon see whether he is going to perform or not. Let’s leave time to decide that.

The full commander-in-chief supposedly voted for, has not been able to do anything because of all kinds of compromises the government had been bedeviled with. We have a nation that is becoming a forest of demons. We are now hearing voices. With discordant voices and the house is divided against itself and the chicken has begun to eat its own intestine, Akuiyili is suing Aondoakaa and Aondoakaa is being called a liar in public; the whole set up is already ruined. Except if Mr. Goodluck would do his magic wand that made him the deputy governor, an acting governor and a governor. He was vice president, now acting president and hopefully president. If he has the magic wand, we shall see. But I do not expect anything good to come out of evil.

Could you expatiate on the idea of the acting president being a sole administrator?
It is as simple as ABC. Because the rigorous process of doing things legally and properly has been short-circuited. Nigerians are today sighing in relieve that at least we are OK. But now, we are just jumping from frying pan to fire. If you watch his broadcast last Tuesday, you will know the man was sitting on one side of his buttocks. His eyes glued on what he was reading.

When he didn’t read it well, he turns his eyes. So, you know that he is not comfortable. Maybe they will assure him, maybe the heads of the armed forces and others will come and salute him. After all, for the first time in his life, there was the national flag and National Anthem. Maybe that will encourage him. Maybe the Sultan of Sokoto and all the Obas and Obis who feel Nigeria is a kingdom and not a republic will encourage him. Now you see things that are going on.

The Bible says all the goodness of life shall follow us all the days of our lives and we shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever. I think his wife is Patience. So what is going on is that Goodluck and Patience shall follow us all the days of our lives and we shall dwell in this nation forever, Amen. He is not comfortable on that seat and I don’t see how he can perform well when he has no proper authority to function.

People are now worried about possible military intervention. What do you think?
Well, let the military look at their track record. Let them check if at any time they intervened they left Nigeria better. Any attempt by the military to come and disrupt democracy that is going on and we are still trying to figure out, any attempt to come out from their barracks to take over government, they should be ready to kill one million people. Some of us would resist them with everything we have. Citizen revolt is bloodier than the bloodiest coup. They will not even dare.

The nation has moved beyond that. We are not afraid of the military at all. They remain servants of the Nigerian nation to ward off external aggression and to quell internal rebellion. That is their constitutional duty and any attempt to go beyond that will backfire on them; retroactively we will bring others who have done it to book someday.
