Uneasy calm in Aso Rock as Prof of Int. Law & Jurisprudence , Akin Oyebode, ends Buhari's 2019 dreams

PROF AKIN OYEBODE.

PARIS, OCTOBER 24,2016: (DGW) Professor of International Law and Jurisprudence , Akin Oyebode ,  has said Buhari and his All Progressives Congress-led government are morally bound to fail in their bid to seek a re-election in 2019.

He said it would be an effort in futility because no one would in his right frame of mind will vote for them considering the current economic hardship ravaging the country and the way President Buhari is running the country.

The legal luminary added that Buhari system of governance amounts to digging a hole for himself ahead of 2019.

Faulting the Federal Government legal team, he said they lack a clear understanding of the concept of  the international law saying the government lost its case at the subregional court against the former National Security Adviser Col Sambo Dasuki.

Oyebode speaking further declared emphatically that from the way Buhari is going  no one will ever vote for him in 2019.

As for the ruling party, the All Progressives Congress, the lawyer in international law said the party is still on trial and has not gotten any foothold in the country and Nigerians he said have started regretting why they ever voted for the party under the existing circumstances.

He said, “I think President Buhari should watch it. He needs advice; he needs help because he didn’t have all the answers.

The professor minced no words in saying the APC-led Nigerian government has lost its popularity and goodwill among Nigerians,

''The President should put on his thinking cap and get his kitchen cabinet or spring doctors to cut their losses because the APC-led government has lost a considerable good will and he should redress the imbalance.” 

“They didn’t plead that that the ECOWAS Community Court of Justice could not hear the matter because Dasuki’s lawyer has not gone to the Supreme Court  but jumped from Appeal Court to the Community Court. Look at how they allowed themselves to be boxed into a corner and now the government doesn’t know how to wriggle out.”

On the recent clampdown on some judges, the professor of International law said that there is nothing wrong whatsoever in fighting corruption  and extending such to the Temple of Justice but what people are complaining about is the procedure  which is fundamentally opposed to all civilized norms.

He rounded off by faulting the mid-night string raid on the judges' homes across the country by the Department of State Services.
