Sen. Babajide Omoworare, the Senior Special Assistant to the President on National Assembly Matters (Senate), said that President Muhammadu Buhari did not relegate Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo by traveling without transmitting a letter to the National Assembly to empower the VP to act on his behalf.

Omoworare stated this while briefing newsmen in Abuja on Wednesday.

Sen. Omoworare said that contrary to agitations by some individuals and groups, the President had not in any way undermined or relegated the office of the Vice President.

Omoworare said, “He has no reason to do so. I don’t think there is any way or manner that the office of the Vice President has been relegated.

“The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria can work from anywhere he is in the world.”

The Presidential aide insisted that the only case where people could raise issues was when a President was ill and was unable to transmit his absence to the National Assembly.

“The only celebrated case was that of the late President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, who was ill and could not transmit any letter to the National Assembly. The National Assembly had to work around the situation by ensuring that executive powers go to the Vice President,” Omoworare added.

He insisted that the present circumstance was different from the Yar’Adua era and that Buhari did not breach any law by not transmitting a letter to the National Assembly to enable the VP exercise executive powers during his present private trip to London.

On Monday, Chief of Staff to President Buhari, Abba Kyari, had reportedly taken a bill to him to sign in London, attracting criticisms from far and near.

As a way of countering those ‘missiles’ from enraged citizens, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, on Tuesday said that the President could “rule from anywhere”.

Buhari is currently away in the United Kingdom on a “private visit” – a trip observers say is for medical purpose.

A source in the Presidency, while confirming the sack of Osinbajo’s aides, said, “It is true that many of VP’s aides were given termination letters last night.

“However, I cannot confirm the exact number because it was not done in public. But you know it is political.”

Though both camps continue to deny any rift in their midst, observers maintain that a strong cabal within the Presidency was working tireless to reduce the influence of Osinbajo in the Buhari administration.

See lie...

So what will the senile dull president call it when even Abba Kyari is the defacto President & VP? Abeg can the zombies explain his statement for him.Not even Osinbajo COS doing the sacking.

When Yoruba says "won ti fi ori è gba paró" Cabal ti take over lati ayé ati jò.Buhari is a tragicomical character.

It is rare to find prominent politicians like (buhari and tinubu) with few political enemies. some haters behave badly out of ignorance

Fabricated lies from the pit of hell.

Tinubu u can never be president.. Ur plans against osinbajo will not work

"...Though both camps continue to deny any rift in their midst, observers maintain that a strong cabal within the Presidency was working tireless to reduce the influence of Osinbajo in the Buhari administration."

Truth cant be hidden.Continue the denial.

If Buhari could deny the promises he promised those Nigerians then who's Osinbajo?? Nonsense and Buhari's integrity




If Buhari was Peter of those days he won't even wait for the còck to crow 3x before denying Jesus Christ.
