Presidency Cabal in dilemma over Buhari

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has said that the All Progressives Congress (APC)
and the Presidency cabal is in a state of
dilemma as to whether to bring President
Muhammadu Buhari back to the country
with his present state or leave him in
London, adding that; “The President has
become a bad business for the cabal that
imposed him on Nigerians.”
Governor Fayose, who insisted that
Nigerians must be told the truth
about the President’s state of health,
said; “I told Nigerians then that
President Buhari was a black-market
packaged by the APC cabal that was
only interested in seizing power by
whatever means and now, I have
been vindicated.”
In a statement issued on Monday, by his
Special Assistant on Public Communications
and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor
said;
“For a President who has spent 113
days abroad taking care of his health
out of the 191 days in 2017, it is time
for Section 144 of the 1999
Constitution of the Federal Republic
of Nigeria to be invoked.”
He said:
“President Buhari left Nigeria for
London on May 7, 2017 and today is
July 10, 2017, 64 clears days since
Nigerians saw their President or
heard anything from him. Even the
President’s handlers are keeping
Nigerians in the dark.
“Even though the number of days
that a president can spend outside
the country is not specified in the
1999 Constitution (as amended), the
makers of the laws of Nigeria
envisaged this kind of situation and
made provisions for how to resolve it
in Section 144.
“It has therefore become pertinent
that the Federal Executive Council
(FEC) must invoke Section 144 of the
1999 Constitution by passing a
resolution declaring that President
Buhari is incapable of discharging the
functions of his office.”
Governor Fayose, who insisted that he was
not interested in President Buhari’s death,
said freeing Nigeria from the hands of
those who are presently holding the
country to ransom should be the major
concern of all well-meaning Nigerians.
“They are always quick to tell
Nigerians that there is an Acting
President in person of Prof Yemi
Osinbajo and as such, no vacuum
government. However, we all know
the limitations of the Acting
President. We know that there are so
many things Prof Osinbajo cannot do
and Nigerians are the ones bearing
the consequences of a bedridden
President.”
