Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

Prince Tony Momoh, a former Minister of Transport, on Tuesday said President Muhammadu Buhari will not interfere in choosing the leadership positions of the incoming National Assembly.

Speaking in a chat with INDEPENDENT, Momoh, one of the national leaders of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) said it is unfair for anyone to try to decide for the legislative arm of government its leaders when by the constitution, they are an independent arm of government.

“President Buhari knows that the three arms of government have their operating manual and as such, he doesn’t want to interfere. People don’t really know that Buhari operates by the book. He knows that the constitution is a compilation of delegated powers.”

“He knows what his powers are and what the limits are. He doesn’t want to exceed the limits. A lot of people don’t believe that that should happen and that is why they are clamouring that he should decide who becomes the Senate President or the Speaker. As someone who believes in due process and rule of law, he will never do that.”

Saraki should try and interfere before he leaves

Are you kidding me? Buhari will surely have more than passing interest in who becomes Senate President or Speaker. Not after shooting himself in the in the leg in 2015. Presently, only him can intervene to make the currently crowded aspirants reach a consensus otherwise history will repeat itself.

Hmmm

Yimu

Buhari na name? That should be a name Of an animal place or thing

The executive and the legislature are quite different that is enough reason for him not to interfere.

Buhari better interfere, no time for all this i belong to nobody, i belong to everybody swegbe talks..

This dumb non interference caused Saraki to hijack the Senate which bleed Nigerians
-- Senate budget alone now stands at N150bn per year without any visible capital project for this outrageous budget
-- They now get SUVs every four years
-- Saraki seats on national budget for over seven months
-- They even legalize budget padding
-- Critical national projects like Enugu airport runway repair, completion of Lagos/Ibadan express way budget were wickedly slashed making contractors to abandon site

Baba better wake up, or else is action or inaction may spell doom for APC in 2023, and shoud APC loose many people are ready to jail him and redicule his family
