The Nigerian president is at large, literally. Ever since president Muhammadu Buhari left the country to London on a sick leave he's yet to return, and Nigerians are pissed.
The picture above illustrates a peaceful protest urging that the president return from London or resign. It's been 92 days since he left! And according to the constitution, the President would be declared unfit to rule if not on seat for 90 days. Today makes it 90 plus 2 days, and counting.
The political meandering exposes the incompetence and corruption of the Nigerian government. If a President is indisposed for an allotted number of days, then he should truly be declared unfit to rule.
This unhealthy clinging to power is pulling the country down. One would think that it's the same ruling party after all, but in Nigeria's case it's more than that. This is tribal, this is North vs South.
There are rumors about the president's state of health and a possible return date. But frankly, when is our president coming back? Or, would he ever come back?
