Video VP Kashim Shettima openly indirectly called Pres. Tinubu a tyrant, the Senate a rubber stamp.

Speaking at fmr AGF, Mohammed Bello’s book launch in Abuja, VP distanced himself from the State of Emergency rule that removed Governor Fubara.

He recounted his experience in 2013 , when Goodluck Jonathan wanted to remove him and other North East governors, over insecurity in the region.

But the then House of Representatives speaker, Aminu Tambuwal boldly told him, it’s not possible because he (Jonathan) lacked the constitutional right to do this.

Jonathan wasn’t convinced, and went to ask the AGF M. Bello Adoke, Bello reiterated the constitution, insisting Jonathan doesn’t have the power to remove an elected Governor or Councilor from office.

Shettima thanked the Tambuwal and Adoke for their defiance.

Although he didn’t directly say “Tinubu you’ve been a bad boy”. But his tone, and the message has been interpreted as such.

Because, on March 18th, Pres. Tinubu declared a state of emergency in Rivers state over the Wike/Fubara power tussle and removed Fubara for six months, which is totally illegal by the Nigerian constitution.

But possible with help from Akpabio leadership, which many believe the reps were bribed to support the constitutional pillaging.

Shettima’s message is aimed at the president, the senate, house or reps and the AGF.

Shettima according to multiple reports, will not be Tinubu’s running mate in 2027, despite his classic impressive hand writing. So according to analysts, he’s now tilting towards the coalition.

APC media members are totally disagreeing with the video. Arguing that, suspension and removal are two different things.

• Regardless, the President, has neither the power to remove or suspend a democratically elected official.

In the 2013 event, President Goodluck Jonathan declared state of emergency in Adamawa, Yobe and Borno States due to Boko Haram, but he didn’t suspend democratic structures. Which now according to new information is because the AGF and Speaker didn’t approve, unlike the Fubara situation.
