BEVERLY HILLS, July 10, (THEWILL) – Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State is at it again, disclosing this time round that the All Progressives Congress, APC, and the Presidency cabal are now in a dilemma as to whether to bring President Muhammadu Buhari back to the country in his present state or leave him in London.
THEWILL recalls that Fayose had claimed towards the end of last month that APC leaders and some government officials told him that Buhari has been on a Life-Support since June 6 at a West-End Hospital in London, adding that “only three Nigerians who are of the President’s cabal are allowed access to the President”.
The governor, in a statement issued on Monday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, pointed out that; “The President has become a bad business for the cabal that imposed him on Nigerians”.
While stressing that Nigerians deserves to be told the truth about the President’s health condition, he 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.”
Clarifying that he was not interested in Buhari’s death, the governor asserted that freeing Nigeria from the grip of those who are presently holding the country to ransom should be the major concern of all well-meaning Nigerians.
The statement reads in part, “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.
“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.
“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.”
