Impeachment Of BUHARI As Nigerian President by teufelein(f): 6:26pm On Jan 28, 2019
Impeachment?

The 1999 Constitution provides the procedures to impeach a president. With the same Constitution, the president cannot be impeached.

Just so you know.

I say forget the elections and discard that useless document FIRST!!!

The Intern's Gambit

something interesting:

1. The presidency could definitely get away with the removal of the CJN even while illegal
2. The Constitution is skewed in favour of dictatorship
3. The CJN was accused of "misconduct" even when not proved
4. The NJC recommends disciplinary actions to the president
5. The FJC investigates judicial misconducts and recommends to the NJC.

Now, the president's game could be turned against him by employing the same Constitution.

1. The Judiciary is purportedly United against the president in this unfortunate heist of the judiciary
2. The pseudo CJN has helped the president to breach the Constitution (by breaching Section 158, Section 231 and Section 21 of the 1st
Schedule)
3. The pseudo CJN has effectively helped the presidency to commit a crime by accepting the proceeds of an illegality. This is gross misconduct
4. A petition should be written to the Federal Judicial Council on the misconduct of the pseudo CJN
5. The FJC investigates and recommends to the NJC that the pseudo CJN be dismissed from the Bench
6. The NJC recommends to the president that a certain pseudo CJN be dismissed.

Stalemate...

Presidency either takes the easy way out and back down, or face-off with the NJC and NBA.

Caveat: The NJC and NBA must grow some brass balls.

This is called the Intern's Gambit.

Buhari has already impeached have himself, when most of the citizens of a nation don't think of you as the president then it's over. Nigerians have a new president and he is the messiah.

Re: Impeachment Of BUHARI As Nigerian President by teufelein(f): 6:59pm On Jan 28, 2019
The Section 143 of the Constitution provides that a president be impeached for gross misconduct. The process takes about 4 months. The Chief Justice of the Federation must set up a 7-man panel to investigate the allegations against a president!

On being indicted, the president faces the national assembly to answer to his charges. Afterwards, a two-third majority is required in the assembly to impeach the president.

Here's the reality:

Section 5 gives all executive powers to the president. He has the powers to appoint the Heads of all the Security Agencies, EFCC, CPC, etc. He controls the Judiciary by proxy, he appointed the Chief Justice by legal/constitutional gymnastics. He employs Executive Orders when he so wishes. He controls the Treasury.

The president of Nigeria at any point in time is not a mere mortal; he's a god!

Two questions; one actual, the other rhetorical:

1. Is it true that fake acting CJN, Justice Tanko Mohammed did not attend law school and was never called to bar? If so how can he possibly preside over Nigeria's secular judicial system?

2. Is there any cause you won't find Nigerian willing to demonstrate in support of in exchange for money? In other words, is there a moral line somewhere at which you cannot rent a crowd because you won't find anyone willing to go along? This would be a great social experiment.

IT IS NOW TIME TO REVERSE THE FULANI CONQUEST OF NIGERIA

Dr, Ozodi Osuji

In American type democracy, the government is deliberately divided into three coequal branches: legislative, executive and judicial; the three are supposed to check one another, to be in rivalry and have adversarial relationships; the idea is that if they do so tyranny would be averted and democracy, rule of the people or their representatives, is maintained.
The constitution delineates how errant members of each branch of government can be removed. The legislature, for example, is the only power that can impeach and remove the US president or member of the federal judiciary. The president appoints members of the judiciary and Congress approves them but once they take office the president cannot remove them.
I understand that the Nigerian constitution delineates how justices of the Nigerian Supreme Court are to be removed. I understand that the legislature is involved in the process.
Lately, I hear that despite that constitutional pathway for removing the chief justice of Nigeria, President Mohammadu Buhari has removed the chief justice of Nigeria and appointed a Muslim northerner as the chief justice of Nigeria. I understand that his ground for doing so is the chief justice’s alleged corruption. Corrupt judges ought to be removed from office but there is a constitutional way of doing so.
In effect, what we now have is tyranny by Buhari. The cycle is now closed. There is no more democracy in Nigeria.
The descendants of ‘Uthman Dan Fodio, as the former Saduana of Sokoto, Ahmadu Bello said, must rule Nigeria. As the man said, it is Fulanis destiny to come from Guinea and rule Nigeria.
Black colonialism is permitted while European colonialism is not; southerners fought to kick out whites only to allow illiterate Fulanis to rule them.

Take a look at who holds top positions in Nigeria:

Presidency
Senate president
Speaker of House of Assembly
Head of the Army
Head of the Navy
Head of the Air force,
Head of the Nigerian Police
Head of the Judiciary
Head of the Federal bureaucracy
Most members of the federal Cabinet
All members of National security apparatus


Hausa-Fulanis occupy these offices. Fulanis practically control everything in Nigeria. And their population is about 11 million in a country of nearly 180 million people. This is kind of like 5 million whites ruling 35 million South Africans, during the apartheid era.
Apparently, this is Fulani definition of democracy.

In the USA the federal cabinet is distributed so that folks from all over the USA feel a part of the government but in Nigeria a bunch of foreigners from another country, Guinea hold every important position in the government.
Nigeria is about fifty percent Muslims, in the North and fifty percent Christians in the south; yet Muslims hold most top positions in the country.

This is Fulani democracy at work.
They say that those the gods want to destroy they make blind. If it has not occurred to Fulanis that what is going on in Nigeria is not natural they are born foolish.

People from a region where most of the people are illiterates rule people from regions where the bulk of educated Nigerians are.
A man with doubtful secondary school leaving certificate rule folks in the South, many of whom have university education and the southerners are expected to accept it!

Fulanis rely on revenue from oil from the Niger Delta to fund their government. Suppose folks in the Niger Delta start blowing up all the pipelines taking oil to ships for export. They can disrupt the outflow of oil from the delta and the federal government would have no money with which to pay the mercenary army propping it up. The unpaid military would disband and become brigands sloshing all over the North.
Fulanis apparently do not understand how vulnerable they are. They have set the stage for conflagration in Nigeria and when that fire starts it would consume them.


Apparently, Fulanis believe that as long as they have Yorubas support they will rule Nigeria in perpetuity (in the meantime they gradually transform Yoruba land to Muslim land).
After converting the fickle Yoruba to be their servants in ruling Nigeria, the Caliphate thereafter directs its attention to converting Igbos to Islam or simply killing them off.

The Fulani goals and objectives are now crystal clear to even this hitherto supporter of one Nigeria.
Given Fulani-Muslim goal of domination of Nigeria I now turn my attention to removing the plague from the Guinea.
It is now time to get rid of the locust before they eat all the vegetation in Alaigbo and transform the land to desert and the people to their Muslim slaves.
