ASIWAJU Bola Ahmed Tinubu, Nigeria’s president since May 29, 2023 is a man of many parts, talented in multiple areas of life. As someone who is able to do many different things almost effortlessly, Nigerians perceive him as a superman – the “ideal superior man of the future,” as described by Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche, the 19th century German philosopher in Thus Spake Zarathustra, “who could rise above conventional Christian morality to create and impose his own values.
But after what looked like a successful trip to the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia, rather than return to Nigeria as scheduled, the president vanished into thin air. All attempts by Nigerians to know his whereabouts were rebuffed. Otherwise loquacious and impertinent mouthpieces of the government uncharacteristically became dumb.
I have no doubt in my mind that Tinubu will get away with these disdainful acts. He believes that he has conquered Nigeria and in a sense he has. If not, how can someone who claims to be occupying the highest office in the land by virtue of the people’s mandate act with so much impunity? Daily, the president and his cohorts game the system and dare us to do our worst.
Bwala, the erstwhile Atiku Abubakar Man Friday, who is excitably doing everything to be invited to the presidential dinner table said rather incredulously: “The President is in charge of the country and can govern from anywhere in the world whether the Vice President is also in Nigeria or not. Aso Villa is not a block industry and the President is not a bricklayer. Read Section 5 of the Constitution.” And he must have been happy with himself after such a “profound” discovery.
Of course, Bwala was talking about the provisions of Chapter 1, Part 2, Section 5 of the 1999 Constitution which deals with the executive powers of the Federation. As a lawyer, he knows that no section of the Constitution says that the president can govern from the moon if he so wished. He knows that Nigerians deserve to know the whereabouts of the president. It is a right, not a privilege.
