The point is, he should have. It is only Nigeria that takes important bills to their president in a foreign country to sign when the vice president is not dead.

The cabal will be the instrument of Nigeria's dissolution come 2023.

The constitution only requires him to when he will be out of office for 21days, I think he will be gone for only 14 or more days hence it will be at his discretion. Although domiciled in London, NIGERIA house in the eye of Intl law is as good as NIgeria.

This man will just say or do anything to please his hausa-fulani feudalist Lords because of his alleged presidential ambition or perhaps the bullion vans in Bourdillion scandal.

Meaning, Tinubu continues to support anything that humiliate Osinbajo even as the presidency cabal continue their onslaught.
https://dailynigerian.com/exclusive-buhari-fires-35-aides-in-osinbajos-office/

A sincere question I want to ask Tinubu is that would the hausa-fulani cabal in this govt have tolerated this humiliation under any guise were the reversal the case?

Is this all you got out of the piece? That someone travelled to get a bill signed. Nothing about the content of the bill? Or is that too complex? In a way, I apologize for picking on you seeing that many people will make exactly the same comment as you. But for convenience sake, and since you appear to be the first person to substantially make this quite familiar point, it has to be you. Not as a person but as a principle.

First, the President can choose to delegate his powers to the VP or he can choose to work from wherever he is in the world. The US President does not delegate the signing of Bill's to the VP. We instead need to look behind why it needed someone to take physically take the bill to the President? The failure is the low level of trust in ourselves and our inability to embrace technology for evidential purposes. This is the real issue in the story. The need to reform our processes and the law that underpin those processes. As a lawyer I use esigning platforms for overseas clients but I cannot use them for local processes because the Nigerian law remains sceptical of electronic signature. There is an automated pen device that the US President uses to mass sign and autograph documents. Nigerian law does not recognize this.

Were the President to be sick or undertaking critical surgery, it would be right to go back to NASS and get permission to devolve the duties earmarked by the constitution to the VP. This was done in the Presidents first tenure, but the facts now are different. The Presidents life is not at risk.

I recently came back to NL. I used to be here as Greenpasture but the tribal and innane comments popular on the front pages literally forced me out. I came back simply because I believe that ground must not be submitted to prejudice. I dont know how long I will be here for because it becomes tiring to provide facts and reason. We shall see.

Let's not do the simple thing. Nigerias problems according to Einstein cannot be solved at the level they were created; ethnic hatred, envy, laziness and incompetence. Let's read to discover the real issue and then let's contribute. Let's not embarrass our children or grandchildren.

Travel all away from to sign a bill in Lomdon..

How many protocols travel with Kyari?
Is the money for the itinerary from their personal pockets?

This is cluelessness
The facts are:
1.Osinbajo can't sign the document because power was not transferred to him btw buhari/senate. Why?
2. Osinbajo can't take the document to London because he's not president's errand boy.
3. Onus is on Nigerians to reject a situation like this thru constitutional ammendment.
4. If I may add, it shows saraki as senate president always forced Buhari to do the right thing of transferring power to the VP during the first term of Buhari/Osinbajo. Buhari is a big disappointment on this current development.

Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has commended President Muhammadu Buhari for signing the Deep Offshore Act in London.

Tinubu also commended the president’s Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari for traveling to London to present the bill to Buhari for assent.

However, Tinubu said the signing of the bill was a pointer to the fact that Buhari was determined to reform the country’s economy.

A statement he signed titled “The Coming Prosperity,” reads: “WITH the action by the National Assembly to improve the outdated Deep Offshore Act through legislative amendment, Nigeria has turned an important corner. As stated in his insightful, forward-looking commentary published in ThisDay…Presidential Chief of Staff Abba Kyari rightfully asserted the financial provisions of the old law had outlived their stated purpose. Continuation with this outmoded financial regime enriched the oil companies while depriving Nigeria of a fair bargain.

“Billions of dollars that should have landed in our national coffers to fund public infrastructure and essential social services instead found residence in the balance sheets of the oil firms.

“This was no attempt to deprive the oil majors. We want the firms to make a just profit for their efforts; however, they have been receiving a surplus at the expense of our minimal developmental needs. This is not as things should be.

“The companies are Nigeria’s long-term business partners and we have no interest in denigrating them; all we seek is a fair, equitable relationship. The new amendments provide this.

“The amendments demonstrate the important progress to be made when the National Assembly and the Presidency work in harmony for the collective good. Efforts by past governments to amend the law got bogged in failure due to the intervention of special interests.

“This time, finally, the national interests were considered weightier than the special interests of a few. President Buhari and the National Assembly leadership should be commended for this singular achievement.

“Chief of Staff Kyari titled his commentary “Toward a New Deal for Nigeria.” This is appropriate and more than symbolic. The title recalls a challenging time in the history of the United States. That nation was in the throes of economic contraction.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu

“The people would vote to remove the austere, insensitive party that had governed the nation for over a decade simply by catering to the wealthy. The people voted for a compassionate, progressive government headed by a committed principled leader to steer the nation out of danger. No two historical situations are identical. But, there are important similarities between our circumstance and the challenges America faced during that period.

“Faced with steep economic challenges, the administration of Franklin Roosevelt dedicated itself to reforming the economy in order to bring prosperity to a hurt and struggling population.

“In so doing, he would reform, at times reinvent, the nation’s economic institutions and laws. This would change the relationship between the average citizen and the American government for the better. This was the essence of the New Deal.

“Such beneficial reform is what the Buhari government seeks but in a more complex and challenging environment. The American challenge was exclusively economic. The Nigerian challenge is multi-faceted.

“President Buhari first had to tackle insecurity and the terrorism of Boko Haram. He then had to throttle corruption in official circles so that government could be responsive to the people’s needs instead of serving those who enriched themselves from government coffers.

“He had to grapple and make headway with these fundamental problems before shifting primary focus on economic reform. As the title of Chief of Staff Kyari’s composition indicate, we now move toward a New Deal for Nigeria.

“President Buhari is intent on reforming the economy that it may answer the needs of the majority of our people. Establishing the Economic Council of Advisers (EAC) was an innovative, bold step, assembling our nation’s top economic minds to shape economic programmes and policy. Along with his ministers and other officials, the EAC will offer the president their best professional advice on how to improve all aspects of the economy and government’s role in it.

“The amended Deep Offshore Act is not an isolated, solitary act. It is a harbinger.Just as the amended Act brings to the oil sector overdue reform that will benefit national development, the Buhari administration will take a critical look at all major segments of the economy.

“It will do so with an eye to reforming what needs to be reformed and improving what needs to be improved. Just as the oil sector has been made better, all other sectors of the economy will be strengthened.

“The end result will be an economy transformed into one that provides hope, opportunity and meaningful livelihoods for all.

“Indeed, we move toward a New Deal for Nigeria.”

http://www.titopeblog.com/2019/11/tinubu-speaks-as-abba-kyari-takes-bill.html


This really should be the crux of the discussion around the new law that was passed. Rather, we are pre-occupied with the unnecessary ruckus around the political correctness of the COS taking documents for the President's sign-off to London.

In Nigeria, we enjoy majoring in the minors. We relegate strategic conversations that will determine and shape our future as a nation and elevate issues that have no bearing on the wellbeing of our nation-state. It is a shame that almost every article or analysis that has been penned about this bill has focused largely on the political correctness of the President's decision not to hand over to the Vice President or the fact that the law was signed in London. Hardly any focus on the actual content and import of the new law and its implication.

I'm glad that Mr. Tinubu hasn't allowed himself to be dragged into the needless controversy.

Why do you feel you love Nigeria more than any other person criticising the leadership? While I am not disputing the fact that you love and wish Nigeria well, you must understand that even those who criticise some of the actions of government also love the nation. The fact that you share different views from someone else does not make the person an enemy of the nation. Democracy thrives better under opposition. I believe in the same manner that you claim you love Nigeria, others love Nigeria too.

The Nigerian evidence Act and the provisions of the constitution do not allow for the use of e-pens so physical signature is required. We do not know why it was so urgent that someone had to physically travel down - there may have been a time sensitivity issue. What we do know is that the Presidents signing of the bill does not take anything away from the clear provisions of the VP's duties and authorities.

And as for whether there is evidence of any leader signing a bill outside the country, the answer is yes. The President of the US can sign Bill's aboard Airforce 1 and even an Airforce carrier. [b]The Surrender document between Japan and the US was signed onboard the USS Missouri in Tokyo. [/b]If the President signs a bill in a property owned by the FRN such a document stands is as if it was signed in Nigeria. The Nigerian embassy or any other property including an investment property or a Nigeria presidential plane or ship is regarded as Nigerian territory.

“The amended Deep Offshore Act is not an isolated, solitary act. It is a harbinger.Just as the amended Act brings to the oil sector overdue reform that will benefit national development, the Buhari administration will take a critical look at all major segments of the economy.

“It will do so with an eye to reforming what needs to be reformed and improving what needs to be improved. Just as the oil sector has been made better, all other sectors of the economy will be strengthened.

“The end result will be an economy transformed into one that provides hope, opportunity and meaningful livelihoods for all.

“Indeed, we move toward a New Deal for Nigeria.”

Afonja's Misgivings. Have ever heard of a US President signing US BILLS in Foreign land? Or The Queen of England signing British laws in Lagos? Lawan, Gbajabiamila and Tinubu should know that what Buhari is doing signing Nigeria's Bills on Foreign Land is IMPEACHABLE. Are they waiting for FEMI FALANA to show them the way again?

Racoon:
This man will just say or do anything to please his hausa-fulani feudalist Lords because of his alleged presidential ambition or perhaps the bullion vans in Bourdillion scandal.

Meaning, Tinubu continues to support anything that humiliate Osinbajo even as the presidency cabal continue their onslaught.

A sincere question I want to ask Tinubu is that would the hausa-fulani cabal in this govt have tolerated this humiliation under any guise were the reversal the case?


I’m 150% sure if this was Jonathan’s govt tinubu wud have rained insults since on them rather than defend such actions. This is the hypocrisy of Jagaban
