When is the president of a country safe to be declared as incapacitated? This is the present state of the Nigerian Government...

The president's first trip out of the country spanned 50 days before coming back on the basis of health issues, two months after; he is gone back!

A country as Large and as Famous, the most populous black nation on the planet and her citizens in every city of the world. Vast resources, huge foreign deposit but stabilized economy and government cabinets. What other definition of Anarchy is as superb as the state of my country?

There is a saying that:

When lies are repeated over and over again, it begins to sound like the truth...

The excuses of exponential failure in this government had become and entity in the Nation's symbolic appearance, therefore the retrogressing rate is spontaneous which drags the economy and the well been of the citizens to the bottom of the Ocean!

A president who has someone else ruling in his stead due to ill health or some other reasons unknown to us average citizens, who refuses to resign from office and let an able body successor steer the wheel of the country instead of some cabal covering up this mystery an tossing the future of the country here and there like a Ping-Pong!

If he: President Muhammadu Buhari of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is still alive or dead, we do not know....

Maybe a double or decoy keeps showing up on the internet to toil with the mind of patriots; one thing is for sure, after additional weeks in absential like his first 50 days out of office, the truth will surface in a jiffy.

Evil rumours as one of his aides describe social media news about the President's death theory. As at the 2015 presidential elections, the then presidential candidate's health and age had been an internet buzz, with many ruling out the possiblilty of him seeing through his tenure if elected.

Fast forward to July 2017, the fears of political pundits few years back is now hunting the entire nation; Because the president is sick, so is the county sick in retrospect! A statement justified by the degrading economy and political brouhaha.

Fact is, no citizen of this country should be told that the present presidential cabinet is incapable of discharging the duties assigned to them by the Constitution.

If this is worth waiting out till 2019 when another candidate elect with new sets of executive cabinets will kick this bunch of political veggies out of their individual offices, we all waiting and watching in 3D for this wastefulness four -year tenure of nothingness to expire!

Ahh, the tales of Nigeria indeed, the only country without her president. Politics played out so much that the vice president was not officially handed the post of acting president.There was once a country is believe is the sentence.

Too many hidden secrets in the full details, don't want SSS come knocking at my gate!

We don't practice democracy in Africa but we think we are. Nigeria current state is painful and i hope citizens do come to the realization of power bestowed upon them by the law and stop keeping quite and wishing a turn around someday

Voice of the people, nice one @bania

well said my brother. well, they can hide his status for all they could, but my people say that you can't cover pregnancy with your hands. it happened during Musa Ya-adua, and at the end, the truth came out. we are watching. nice one..

@arizonawise

Thanks bro.

I love that proverb, the pregnancy will always show up in the long run....

It's a really too bad situation in Nigeria !! Hope things will get better for this country, cause there must be a solution for all that .

I hope there is bro, if not i will reignite my escape plans !

The political story of my country is that of woe. Usually incredible to every average reasonable, right thinking man. We are in for a ride, but no not where we head to.

How i wish the National Assembly Ghouls could know the pains of average Nigerians!

Its very easy for dictators to gain more power just by hiding behind the democracy image. Its only a matter of time till people are sick of it.

The same in most african states! And they call democracy! nice post @oluwoleolaide!
