UK Medical Trip: Buhari does not need to transmit power to Osinbajo – Presidency

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, on Tuesday said it was not necessary for President Muhammadu Buhari to transmit power to Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo because he would be away for a few days.

It is unnecessary for President Muhammadu Buhari to transmit power to the Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo, has said.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu, stated this on Tuesday when he featured as a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today.

He explained that President Buhari has not contravened the laws of the land by not transmitting power to Professor Osinbajo while away from the country for a number of days.

“He (Buhari) will continue from wherever he is,” Shehu said when asked if the President had transferred duties to the vice president.

He added, “The requirement of the law is that the President is going to be absent in the country for 21 days and more, then that transmission is warranted. In this particular instance, it is not warranted.”
