President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Policy Communication, Daniel Bwala, on Tuesday declared that the presidential can govern Nigeria from anywhere in the world.
Bwala made the remark while faulting the presidential
candidates of the African Democratic Party, ADC, Atiku Abubakar, and the
Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Peter Obi for asking who is in charge of
Nigeria.
While Tinubu is currently on vacation in Paris, Vice
President Kashim Shettima is in the United States for the 81st United Nations
General Assembly, UNGA.
Responding to Atiku and Obi’s queries on who runs the
country, Bwala said both presidential candidates have not given a clear
alternative.
Posting on X, he wrote: “It is funny how opposition
candidates are asking the question who is in charge of Nigeria simply because
the president and¹ Vice President are out of the country.
“For avoidance of doubt, the power of the president to
govern Nigeria is not limited to geography. As commander in chief of the armed
forces, he can order, direct, delegate and or administer the constitution of
Nigeria anywhere in the world. See section 5 of the constitution.
“@atiku and @PeterObi, you both have not yet defined and or
explained a clear alternative path other than populist rhetoric.”
