Medical trip: Transfer power to Osinbajo – Dino Melaye urges Buhari

Former Kogi lawmaker, Senator Dino Melaye, has urged President Muhammadu Buhari to hand over power to his Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, as he travels for his medical check-up in London.

On Monday, the Presidency said Buhari would be making a trip to London for his medical check-up and would return to the country after two weeks.

However, the former Senator representing Kogi West Senatorial district asked Buhari to transfer power to Buhari through a letter to the National Assembly.

Dino advised that the president should do this before leaving the country on Tuesday.

He wrote: “The president should transfer power to the Vice President through a letter to the National Assembly before leaving the country in-line with the constitutional provision.”
