There are strong indications that the Nigeria Governors’ Forum may
send some governors to the United Kingdom to visit President Muhammadu
Buhari, except the President returns home between now and next week.
Saturday PUNCH learnt that the plan to send a delegation to the
President was part of the discussion at the last governors’ meeting in
Abuja, which ended in the early hours of Thursday.
An impeccable source at the meeting, who spoke on condition of
anonymity, said the governors also decided to send a goodwill message to
the President’s family in Nigeria.
The source, however, hinted that the President might return home very soon based on the information available to the governors.
He explained that representatives of the Governors’ Forum would
have embarked on the UK trip immediately but for the information
pointing towards the President’s return anytime from now.
A governor, who was at the meeting, who also spoke with one of our
correspondents on condition of anonymity, said that the decision was
taken at the governors meeting in Abuja on Thursday night.
He said the governors supported the idea after they were informed
about the visit of the leadership of the National Assembly to the
President during the week.
He said, “We will visit the President if he doesn’t come back
in the next one week. We decided to do this after the leaders of the
National Assembly led by the President of the Senate, Dr. Bukola Saraki
visited the President.
“It was a decision supported by all of us, including members of
the Peoples Democratic Party, which is the main opposition party in the
country.”
Buhari had few weeks ago, written to the Senate to inform the
legislators that he would proceed on medical vacation for 10 days and
that Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo would act on his behalf as President
during his absence.
The President was expected to resume work on Monday, February 6,
2017, but he again wrote a letter to the National Assembly a day before,
informing the lawmakers that he needed to extend his leave in order to
complete and get the results of some tests recommended by his doctors.
Since Buhari’s departure, some chieftains of the ruling All
Progressives Congress have been paying visits to him at the Abuja House
in London, UK. Such APC chieftains include: Senate President Bukola
Saraki; Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara; Senate
Leader, Ahmed Lawan; Ogun State Governor, Ibikunle Amosun; a national
leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu; and former interim National
Chairman of the APC, Chief Bisi Akande.
However, some Peoples Democratic Party federal lawmakers have
questioned the exclusion of opposition members in the National Assembly
delegation that recently paid Buhari a visit in London.
The opposition lawmakers expressed disappointment with the
exclusion of PDP members in the delegation even as one of the party’s
members – Ike Ekweremadu – is the Deputy Senate President.
When one of Punch correspondents sought to know if governors
elected on the platform of the PDP would be willing to send
representatives to the UK to visit the President, its Chairman, Governor
Ayo Fayose, said there was nothing wrong in visiting the President.
