“Mr President, I think you are in a trance.” This was the reaction of Nobel laureate, Professor   Wole Soyinka when he was asked by journalists in Lagos on Tuesday, what he would tell President Muhammadu Buhari if he meets him face to face. “I will say to him, Mr President, I think you are under a trance.” “Too many things are happening now which made me say that. I think he is under a trance,” Soyinka said. He added that the sooner the President gets out of the trance, the better for the nation. When asked to explain the form of trance which he thinks the President was in, the Nobel laureate said he does not know but this is can be attributed to the ‘errors’ by the Buhari-led administration. “I don’t know. So many unforced errors. Take for instance the reinstatement of the fellow who was sacked from NHIS (suspended Executive Secretary of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS), Usman Yusuf). He was reinstated by the President. “What is that about? What is going on? ...

Beestone Online quoted a signed statement obtained from Ikimi wherein  sections of the 1999 Constitution which negate and render null and void the defection of Saraki and others from the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP) to APC were averred to. Ikimi opined that the defections were predicated on avarice and not the inability of their political parties to operate under the constitution. “My attention has been drawn to the gale of defections by some Federal and State Legislators from one political party to another. “I make bold to say that the real reasons for all these defections are unconstitutional as they are founded on avarice rather than on the inability of their political parties to operate as a party under the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended),” he enthused. Citing relevant sections of the constitution to buttress his stance, Ikimi said: “Section 68 (1) (g) and Section 109 (1) (g) of the Constitutio...
