The African Democratic Congress has called on the National Assembly to invoke constitutional provisions to determine whether President Bola Tinubu remains fit to discharge the duties of his office, alleging that the president has lost control of his government.

The opposition party also alleged that unelected interests may be exercising presidential powers, unknown to the man elected by Nigerians to preside over the affairs of the nation.

The party made the call in a statement issued on Friday by its National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, following the controversy surrounding the reported leadership dispute at the Border Communities Development Agency.

According to the party, reports that an official allegedly removed by presidential directive continues to occupy office and hold official meetings raise fundamental questions about the authority of the president and the integrity of executive decision-making.
