haveadream: Sir, i understood your points clearly. Frankly, it's a known fact that some Nigerian lawyers speak from both sides of their mouth esp when issues of politics are involved depending on whose side they support. Femi Falana for example, and there are many cases I can bring up to make you understand this. Anyway, let's leave it at that 1 Like |

AirFireEarthH20: Don't u think Its u that is the olodo. If a letter is delivered to an institution like NASS, how do we prove what the content is? Moreover, has there been a notification to all members in plenary/deliberation of the letter? The intention of the constitution is to lay it before the house in plenary, not just delivering a letter which no one knows its content as yet. |

Marotzke: Unfortunately only God determines how long a person can live not machines. They are muslims and the religion dictates if a person dies he should be buried asap. As it is I believe the man is still somewhere alive in some dicey state of health. What happens next, time will tell but one thing I am sure of, lie doesn't endure. 1 Like |

Marotzke: U re one hell of a smart dude... And I am glad that someone else also sees this same imbroglio the same way with me and also the power play that the North re capable of.... Nigerians forget so easily and that is the reason we keep falling into the same ditch repeatedly. We all witnessed wat happened wen Umaru Musa Yaradua was dying and the cabals still held onto power tightly like he was Hale and hearty(...)and also often regaled us with how he was seen playing with his grandkids and occasionally seen jogging around the Villa. With the centre no more holding and with more agitations from Nigerians, the man was finally brought in dead or comatose in the dead of the night and it even took the switching off of the lights of an international airport to achieve this stunt. Also not forgetting that it took the statement of Dora Akunyili of blessed memory for the scales to fall off Nigerians' eyes.. With no more tricks to pull out of the bag, the cabal had to succumb to allowing Oga Jona to fully take over the reins of power, also we shouldn't forget that a certain letter delegating power to Jona was purportedly sent to the National Assembly by Yaradua bt the cabals prevented all of that from coming to limelight. Constitutionally the Vice President should take over from the president if he becomes incapacitated or unable to continue acting as president bt wat did we have under Musa Yaradua? A certain doctrine of necessity had to be invoked.(...)I am saying this because of those folks who re quick to latch onto wat the constitution says,and forget that wat is truly obtainable in Nigeria is different because of the born to rule mentality of some citizens who continue to see power as their birthright. Fast-forward to a few years after, we re down this same path.(...)It took threat and forces of coercion to prevent Oga Jona from getting a second shot at the presidency and even losing the polling booth within the precinct of Aso Rock which to me was instructive..Some citizens of northern extraction made statements that could best be described as incendiary ,hate filled,and treasonable. .. And now that they finally ve the power, u expect them to give it up easily again, no problem, u shall all wait till u all will grow tired of waiting. The mistake most of us re making is the fact that we underestimate the Hausa/Fulani Oligarchs' love for power, they can kill to ve and keep it and the Chibok girls' scandal comes to mind(...)a situation where an educationally disadvantaged state had almost three hundred students are in a girls only academy supposedly sitting for Physics, yes physics and not Arabic study or any stuff like it, a subject that is not too easy, and tedious,a number which even the most educationally advantaged states won't ve for this subject. All the principals of northern extraction involved in that much publicised scam ve been compensated in one way or the other with the exception of Ezekwesili.. Yes it took all these shenanigans to paint a sitting president bad , incompetent and confused and hence the need for power to return to the north. And you all think that the power which they so much cherish would be given up just like that, hmmm, this is just wishful thinking.... The Yorubas will wait till forever because I don't see Osibanjo taking over fully, he will only continue to act with some notable areas that he won't be allowed to touch as acting President, I am waiting to see how Onnoghen will be confirmed as Chief Judge which to me would be the first true test of the so called presidential powers that he now wields, the concentration of power in the hands of northerners in the early part of this administration is instructive.....And I am very very convinced that my instincts can't be wrong..... 2 Likes 4 Shares |

haveadream:\ It wouldn't hurt for a lawyer to stay on a subject matter than start yarning dust for the heck of it. This is what separates the guys in the law firms from the ones under a mango tree. Just like in any profession, there are good lawyers, mediocre ones and the ones who have no business in law. / |

There's no vacancy in Aso Rock as rightly posited by the erudite counsel. The law as it's right now does not give the National Assembly the power to either reject or approve any letter coming from the president seeking for leave to travel, therefore, there's no need for any resolution approving or rejecting it as they don't have such power. The letter is just a mere formality and it. The law as it's today doesn't also state the number of days an elected president or governor will be absent from office in the name of vacation or for medical tourism. All these are pointer to the fact that our constitution needs urgent amendment, we can't continue to allow persons elected to public offices to be away unduly in the name of vacation or medical leave, it's imperative that the constitution is amended to reflect the number of days any elected public office holder can be away. This is to avoid giving them room to abdicate and abandon the work for which they were elected to do yet receiving salaries for doing nothing. May God help Nigeria. |

Re: There Is Neither President Nor Acting President At The Moment- Lawyers by ivandragon: 7:08pm On Feb 08, 2017 |
much ado about nothing! Osibanjo is acting president regardless of the circumstances of letter or no letter, as long as PMB cannot be reached, the next person is the VP, simple. the more germane issue is this, is PMB 'fatally' incapacitated or not? this needs to be resolved ASAP, because there is no point Osibanjo 'acting' indefinitely if PMB cannot continue in office/resume 'permanently', which is why a disclosure of his health status now is important so that the matter can be resolved & Nigerians move on to more pressing issues & not be stagnated in silly debates about if PMB is alive or dead. on a lighter note, Nigerians need a focal point for their 'venom', no use wasting it on Osibanjo if PMB is coming back. BH just took back a village, whom do we blame? Osibanjo or PMB? |
