According to Presidential Spokesman, Shehu Garba, protests and calls for President Muhammadu Buhari, who has been absent from the country for 3 months, to resign or return to work is an assault on the constitution of the country.
He was reacting to the protest by Charly Boy calling for the president to resume work or resign at the Aso Rock villa on Monday.
“There is nothing like a power vacuum in the country, given the competence and general harmony with which the whole government is running.
“Any such calls as being made by this or any other group represents an irrational assault on the constitution and should be ignored by well-meaning members of the public.
“The need of the hour for this country is to rid it of corruption, reform and reinvigorate the economy and to fight crime and insurgency.
“The government is busy with the reconstruction and rehabilitation of infrastructure all over the country. It is creating jobs for the unemployed. It has set its sight on the larger picture of the country’s development; investing in rail and power projects and redeeming the country’s image from the mountains of corruption scandals that have marred it. We will not, therefore, be distracted by this or any other groups.”
