Buhari's Absence and governance issue. An editorial by Tribune


The continuing absence of President Muhammadu Buhari from the country on medical vacation in London should ordinarily not be a cause for concern. This is because the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria already envisages and provides for such a development in Section 145 through which power devolves to the vice president as Acting President whenever the president transmits a letter to the National Assembly that he would not be available to perform his duties. President Buhari obviously complied with this provision as he duly transmitted a letter to the National Assembly in respect of his medical vacation and it is also the case that the vice president has since then assumed duties as the Acting President. Yet, there is a need to interrogate the implication(s) of this particular provision of the Constitution in the light of the misgivings expressed by many on account of the manner in which governance has proceeded under the watch of the Acting President.
