So clearly no deputy governor can claim to have executive authority over any matter in the state until it has been assigned to him by the governor.<\/p>\n<p>A governor usually has prerogative to pick who should be his running mate and it is expected that the running mate, if they eventually win, will exhibit total loyalty and support to his governor.<\/p>\n<p>The constitution says clearly that you can exercise only those functions and perform those duties that have been assigned to you by the governor. So this is the point I need to be make to all those who are deputy governors, who are vice presidents. Until the president assigns the function to you, until the governor assigns the function to you, you just stay there and wait until a circumstance may arise.<\/p>\n<p>If there is something like impeachment, death or incapacitate of a governor, the deputy governor will automatically assume the office but until those situations occur, a deputy governor is just a spare tyre.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Onueze Okocha, likened deputy governors to &#8220;spare tyres&#8221;
