USA Africa Dialogue Series - ] Re: [NI :Acting President Should Order The Jet Back To Abuja: Presidency explains why presidential jet remains with Buhari in London – Punch Newspapers


John Ebohon:

You see,  many Nigerians are hypocrites and shoot off their mouths because they are not the ones affected,  and don't want to accept the reality on the ground.

Let me tell you two stories... 

When I became VC,  I went with some of the silly idealism being touted by you.   For the first six months  or so,  I traveled with only my driver and myself in my incessant trips between Otuoke and Port Harcourt on my way to Abuja...no security, no PA,  nothing.   I would get to the airports, get in line like everybody else to collect tickets, sometimes almost running late and getting my clothes torn.. Etcheram, ad nauseum. 

Then one evening, about 6 pm,  in the rain, just 20 minutes away from the airport, one tyre burst,  and I was left  with my driver under extremely difficult circumstances to change the tyres. 

When I related the story to my wife and family, they all freaked out?   Are you not the VC/President of a university?   If you can't act like one,  please come home to the US!  Suppose you were kidnapped along that Nigdr-Delta stretch of road?   My wife called everyone of my relatives and Friends - including the NUC  - to complain that I wanted to let Nigeria make her a widow because of some stupid idealism. 

It was only after tongue lashing by many people - including at the NUC - that I added a security man to my own car,  a second accompanying vehicle, and another security to that second vehicle.   That way,  I was more at ease,  and those who cared for my personal welfare were at ease. 

Of course,  it cost more money than I would have wanted,  but that is part of the territory.

Now the second story has to do with when there was an incident on campus.   The Police Commissioner came,  and saw no armed security outside my door.  "A-ha,  VC,  you are a sitting duck here! "  (Campus security don't carry guns)   So he arranged for two policemen for myself and one for the Registrar,  for which we needed to have a Security Vote,  payable every month to the NPF.   But also,  because of the length of time they often had to stay with me,  I supplemented all four to five policemen with extra security money - to make them happier. 

So when people say "scrap security Vote!",  it is its abuse,  not the vote,  that should be scrapped.   That vote stands for "Miscellaneous expenditures", and inanities about it should be curtailed.

I worked in Nigeria, in the Niger Delta,  for five years, and I know of what I write.  Nigerians can be mean,  even to their good leaders,  and seventeen  months after my term at Otuoke,   I know of what I write. 

And there you have it.

Prof., what you are saying in effect, is that yesterday's men have bankrupted the nation, as today's men are doing, and as supposed leaders may do; hence no one should attempt to hold PMD to his words and promise to Nigerians that he would put a stop to impunities such as the one being discussed – what a sad day for sincerity! As a Professor of Engineering and former VC, it should not be beyond you to know that those pointing to what is happening are aghast at the extent of cronyism, and have their eyes set on those surrounding PMB, and not PMB himself who is lying on his sick bed. It really should not be beyond you to figure this out, if you have done this, perhaps your reaction would have been different. May be you were not wearing your professorial or VC hat at the time of contribution to the debate.

If I, as a Professor of Engineering and former VC, come off to you as a worthy SSA or PR or Minister of Info and Culture to GMB because of my sincere beliefs on this matter, then you, as a General in the Nigerian Army, come off as a recruit or Sergeant of some banana republic.

Moving on....

 

The President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria - Buhari today, some other people yesterday and tomorrow - does not deserve the meanness that some of you are expressing.  It is not the quartering of presidential planes that is bankrupting the nation.  

 

Here are some examples, by soldiers  (Ihejirika, Badeh, Amosu, etc.) who have assisted in bankrupting the nation,in addition to allegations against Babangida, Abacha, Abdusalami Abubakar and even Obasanjo before them.:

The Economic Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has sealed off an estate belonging to former Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Azubuike Ihejirika.

The estate in question is located along Jabi Airport road junction in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.

EFCC seals off estate belonging to former Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Azubuike Ihejirika in Abujaplay

Ihejirika is one of the former senior officers being probed by the EFCC on the orders of President Muhammadu Buhari  in connection with the $2.1 billion arms deal fraud.

The agency has also sealed off properties belonging to former Chief of Defence Staff, Air Chief Marshal Alex Badeh and arrested former Chief of Air StaffAdesola Amosu.

In the case of your wife,she will get somebody to drive away the car and stay with you because she will call for the car,taxi   or get the ambulance for any transfer.

Even now,  I am yet to read PDP -  the official opposition - make a fuss of this planes saga.   When Yaradua was away,  was the plane returned?   Was returning a plane part of APC's manifesto?   It is you Internet opposers who are making all the fuss,  due to a surfeit of accountability demands. 

 There is no justification whatsoever for having the plane sit at the airport for an indefinite period and be paying the associated cost. 

 

Who says it is indefinite -- it is until PMB is released - and what are the associated costs?

 

The plane should be able to be returned to Nigeria and standby for whenever it is needed. 

That is one option you can choose when you become a sick inactive President. There are other options though.

Standby does not mean the plane should be in the UK incurring such huge parking charge together with the costs of maintaining the flight personnel and security staff, it means the plane not scheduled for any other use but, as in this case, for the sole purpose of meeting the needs of the president

 

You are right - speculatively.

 

 I cannot count the number of times we were reminded here of those who speak the way it is, it would be nice to see this in practice also.

I do not remember being dropped off at a hospital very sick,   and remembering to tell my wife to remember to remove the car in which I was brought in a life-threatening emergency  from the paid parking lot so that the family can save money.  That would be the least of our problems.  It is you guys who won't practice what you so loudly preach here if it were your turn

Is there an established protocol that if the President is to spend more than two weeks - or 30 days - somewhere,  the Presidential plane should return to base?   If there is none,  is it the Vice-President - or the Minister of Aviation - who would recall it to Nigeria?

Under the present circumstances, the ONLY person who could have sent the plane back to Nigeria without any political undertones would be the President himself!   Under his sick condition, does any sane person think that that concern would have crossed his mind?   And having gotten any better, do you think any sane person would work up to him and tell him "Sir,  the Presidentisl plane is costing us money.   Since you are not going to be released soon, should we send it back to Nigeria to save the country money?

So let us stop being childish and petty, and respect the Office of the Presidency,  despite our peeves.  I would have preferred our President not to (have to go) abroad for treatment, even if he has to import medical doctors.   But having gone abroad,  then the accoutrements of his office should not be denied him.

Yes,  let us tally how much it costs to take care of his health.   Let us show that it can build two hospitals, and thereby use the information to establish some protocol.   Let us even use the information to shame them into improving health care in Nigeria.

Until then,  let us pray for the health of the President and afford him all the dignity of the office.

•    Bolaji,
Muhammadu Buhari is an inactive president of Nigeria, having written to the National Assembly and then handed over to his Vice President. The policy on stand by that you mentioned could not have been intended for a president on sick bed and who is inactive.

One of our problems in Nigeria is that we respect personalities over institutions. The institution of the presidency should never be made secondary to the personality of its occupant. Muhammadu Buhari, while still president of Nigeria, is actually an inactive president, and as such, ought not to be accorded this type of extravagancy treatment. Is it not already too extravagant to be treating him this much long abroad? That aircraft is not his property, it is the property of Nigeria's and while he is inactive as president, he is not entitled to it automatically, not to talk of him keeping it in London for as long as he ails.

Frankly, this type of behavior is one of the things that sicken people about Nigeria. If somebody else did this corrupt act, those of us supporters of Buhari would raise hell and he, if he were not in the hospital, would join in condemning the person. It is possible that president Buhari is unaware that the presidential jet is packed in London while he ails, so we should not support this corrupt act. This seems to be the making of the cabal and it has no justification in law, in prudence, and in commonsense. There is no type of emergency that will not permit the jet to travel to the UK to pick him up. He cannot be swept away as president without him first returning to Nigeria and writing to the Senate to have power handed back to him by his VP. So what is nonsense that the president has to have a standby presidential jet? Right now, if Osinbajo does not want him returning to Nigeria on the presidential jet, he cannot order it himself to pick him up -- because he is not an active president; the authority he held as president are now held by Osinbajo until he takes back power. Privileges of that office may be extended to him but not to the extent of him hijacking the presidential jet and keeping it in London. Are we of a nation of idiots to permit and excuse this obnoxious act?

We have to start to respect institutions, else Nigeria will continue to retrograde. The president of Brazil was charged with corruption the other day; that of South Korea was impeached, removed from office, and now in detention while being tried for allowing her aide to solicit monetary contribution using her office's influence. The US president is, by all intents and purposes, under investigation for so many things. These countries respect institutions and no sick president of theirs would commandeer the nation's presidential jet for personal use when inactive in office. Frankly, that jet is illegally kept in the UK. Had we an independent judiciary, as do Brazil and South Korea, president Buhari would be under investigation for misappropriating government property -- the presidential jet.

Again, the Nigerian Constitution permits one active president at all times, not two. Muhammadu Buhari is an inactive president, while Yemi Osinbajo is the acting president; Buhari cannot keep the presidential jet with him while he is inactive. If we respected institutions and shunned corruption, whoever kept that aircraft in London would never have dared to do so. Equally, if we respected institutions and not personalities, Acting president Osinbajo would ordered the jet back to Nigeria after it dropped off the ailing inactive president. We should be bold and honest enough to not make excuses for this heinous behavior. This is an act of corruption and abuse of office.

Mr Ayo Ojutalayo,

 

I believe "equip" is quite different from "build".

There was no typo. GIW was quite right. However, the crew in any case will be in the same state in Nigeria(idle) while the presidential jet is not in use. The ESTACODE, hotel bills etc accruing will definitely equip a small hospital, and if not fully, at least buy some critical equipments like dialysis machines etc.

 

The problem with Nigerians is that we practice selective financial prudence when it suits us. Simply put, keeping the presidential jet in the UK is a waste of public funds. No argument can be made for it.

As we may surmise from the information out there, there is no miraculous recovery of the president that will not give the jet, at least, the 6hrs required for the flight back to pick him up.

Every country has its way of transporting its leader. The British PM travels with the British Airways while the American President travels in the Air Force One, with another parked at a nearby country in case it is needed. Marine Ones are also taken along with the President. 

 

Until we change how we transport our President, we should blame no one for following established protocol. What we spend on Nigeria Air Force One and its crew in London is the very least of our financial and ethical problems. There are more serious issues to be concerned about.
