Buhari Became Petroleum Minister By Decree – Lawyer

A legal practitioner, Mr Emmanuel Anene, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of breaching the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria by imposing himself as the Minister for Petroleum Resources.

Mr Anene said, “The administration brought in the Whistle-Blowing policy, but had failed in putting it through the National Assembly for approval,” while appearing as a guest on Channels Television’s Sunrise Daily on Friday.

“Mr President made himself the Minister of Petroleum by fiat. He did not submit himself to the NASS for clearance that is a breach of the constitutional provision. When we come on board, we heard of the Dasuki-gate.

Today, Dasuki is being prosecuted; he has taken his bail to the Supreme Court (ordinary bail). The lawyer questioned the government’s seriousness in fighting corruption while wondering why Dasuki’s bail lingered for two years.
