Osinbajo is fully in-charge, says Buhari’s cabinet members

Key members of the Buhari Administration have expressed satisfaction with the competence with which the Acting President has handled the affairs of the country.

They praised President Muhammadu Buhari for his selflessness in handing over power to his Deputy and ensuring there is no vacuum.

This is coming a day after the Opposition cast doubts on how much can be achieved by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo in acting capacity.

State House Correspondent Mariah Olasehinde reports that the  May the 29th,  2015 Presidential inauguration brought in President Muhammadu Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo  as a team.

Section 145 subsection 1 of the Nigerian Constitution allows the president to transmit powers to his Vice President when not available, in order to ensure government continues to function normally

But some Nigerians have argued that the president who has been on medical vacation for over ninety days, should either resume or resign

Key members of Cabinet disagree with these calls and those who say Nigeria is comatose, expressing confidence with the way the Acting president has so far been able to handle the affairs of the country

Acting President YemiOsinbajo  on his part has shown an unflinching loyalty to his principal, and has stressed that his role is to support his boss and ensure the administration succeeds.

Osinbajo’s Media Aide, Laolu Akande  in an exclusive interview spoke about the close relationship between president Muhammadu Buhari and his Deputy, and assures Nigerians that the Acting president is in charge, contrary to what the opposition is saying.

President Muhammadu Buhari who left Nigeria on May 7th for London on medical vacation  said his return will be determined by his doctors.  He also assures Nigerians that there is no cause for worry because there is no vacuum at the Villa.
