Some people don't understand how this thing works

Do u think Emefiele is implementing this Monetary policy on his own?

That's what u get when u hv. Dictator as ur president

Probably he have been opposing this policy on d background but d "Almighty" Daura President cannot be opposed.

On NSA
is lik when an MD gives an order 4u 2 release certain amount as an accountant and u says no

Guess what normally happens 2 such account?


That is where you are so wrong. Working for your govt is not a do or die affair. If your boss gives you an order you are not comfortable with, you should query it, but if you can't then you just resign because of the implications of carrying out such orders.

That chap should be probed and if Bakare is right, he should be made to face the law.

The youths really have to learn how things work.

@hollywater. if you do read your bible(that's if yours is still a holy-bible) you would understand that prophets always played an active role in governance from the time of Moses till the very last of them.
Bakare hasn't said anything spectacular except stating the obvious : Emefiele has no moral or professional right to still be governor, all, I repeat, ALL his policies has failed in this administration. When you're on a loosing streak. you don't engage in sit-tightism, you do the needful.
Another person's argument up here that Mr Buhari is a dictator, yad a yad a, is just lame. If the policies of the government doesn't go down with your economic doctrines, you don't sit and absorb it, you tender your fvcking resignation. Every economist has an economic doctrine and pathway, you don't just flow with any government policy.

Lol, u mean some people's bibles are not holy, but his moniker carry holy naun!
Issue of resignation from a govt due to bad policy ... I only heard of it in the western world I have not heard of any in our naija except in the private sector. Or do you know any? Our leaders cherish money and fame more than their integrity.
For record and integrity sake, I think the right person to have done that is madam Ngozi. She was part of the presidency, she ought to know that the money was diverted, nigeria customs is under her ministry and she had access to verify goods that are ordered for importation.
I support the call for her arrest. That is why Obasanjo said 'Ngozi that worked with me is different from Ngozi that worked with Jonathan'.

Buhari collected what is rightfully his as a past head of state, how will he know that the CLUELESS Govt. gave money from Arms purchase?, did they right Arms purchase on the money? the same applied to Adesina - but can the CBN or the Financial minister Okonjo Iweala claim that they're unaware of the source of the money? they're in charge of the management of Nation's Finances.

If sacking the CBN governor affects the exchange rate in a positive way then am in support of removing him that's were I have issue with him, in terms of Dasuki case you guys never understood that the CBN governor was appointed by Jonathan and the same Jonathan gave orders to release such funds.

They should arrest the person that gave the orders not the CBN governor.

Fiery preacher and general overseer of The Latter Ran Assembly, Lagos, Pastor Tunde Bakare has released his state of the nation address tagged ”Roadmap to successful change”.

Pastor Tunde Bakare is known for consistently contributing his opinion to topical issues
Bakare, 61, who was the running mate to President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2011 presidential elections under the banner of the Congress for Progressive Change (CPC), called for the prosecution of the Central Bank of
Nigeria (CBN) governor, Godwin Emiefiele, because of the role of the apex bank in the widely publicised ongoing arms probe deal.

Pastor Bakare is a known ally of President Muhammadu Buhari According to The Cable, Bakare accused the CBN of contributing negatively to the Nigerian economy, adding that Emefiele should be booted out of office and prosecuted.

Is Godwin Emiefiele’s job on the line?
He said: “The government must examine carefully, the argument of economists, that sound monetary policy including proper management of the exchange rate regime by the CBN would eliminate the need for subsidies.

“The intricate connection between monetary policy on the one hand and the fuel subsidy debate on the other, makes the management of the CBN a major concern.

“To the discerning, the CBN currently contributes negatively to the Nigerian state in more ways than one. Firstly, the CBN has become a conduit for politicians to drain the nation.

“Otherwise, how can a letter of barely two paragraphs addressed to the current CBN Governor, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, by the then National Security Adviser (NSA), Col. Sambo Dasuki (rtd.) , become the Authority to Incur Expenditure (AIE) leading to cash flow of $47 million (US dollars) and several millions of euros? “In decent climes, the CBN Governor cannot continue in office while the NSA is accounting for his alleged misdeeds.”

Just yesterday, a reverend father, Mathew Kuka blasted the president and said the country is more divided than ever. PDP supporters went into a praise frenzy as the eulogised the man to be right on the money and very honest, etc.

Today, a pastor makes calls for the arrest and investigation of a man he feels was complicit in the looting of our common patrimony, and the same people are saying he should "face his calling"!!!

What a shameless bunch of hypocrites.
The same pastor that will preach to congregation about judge not you mean? He has already judge Emefiele.He said he should be arrested. That shows you he has judge him already.

Senseless opinion! Take urself as an example, if ur boss who hapens to be ur employer ask u to pay someone some amount whc d told u that is for purchase of equipment for ur company. Will u refuse or query such order since it follow due process? All u have to do is to make sure that all d processes & signatories are observed.
It is not his duty to check if d fund is used for d purpose of which it was given. There are other bodies & agencies that has such responsibility

why do u think that inspite of so many churches today, nigeria still remains one of the most corrupt country? it because pastors are not doing what tunde bakare just did, nor what rev fr Mbaka has been doing.

they stay box inside the church and talk nothing but bible while the society decays. yet, they are the salt of the earth that should preserve it
Re: Arms Probe Deal: Bakare Calls For The Arrest Of CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele by Nobody: 8:15am On Jan 11, 2016
For the record, Emefiele can ONLY be sacked by a 2/3 vote of the Senate. "Terminal leave" could have been an option but the governor still has a little over two years to the end of his tenure. Terminal leave kicks in a few months to the end of his reign.

But Emefiele can volunteer to give the EFCC some more info about the disbursement of the arms funds.

It's so amazing how the arms deal saga has involved so many politicians at the tail end of the last administration; No one is talking about the missing $10billion oil money. Was it that the $10billion was just a false alarm and a tool for the opposition to win the election? Though Emefiele need to answer some questions but I think he must have carried out an order.

No.. Bakare is a Nigerian and as such, he has the right to contribute to national issues. He's not a monk that should be relegated to a temple for the rest of his life. Besides, he was firstly an activist and a lawyer trained by Gani Fahewimi, so yeah, it would be silly for him to remain quiet and not lend his voice/opinion to national issues.

of course I knew few years ago that my Lord Bishop most Rev Kukah had lost it when he went emotional making insinuations about the assassination of Sir Patrick Yakowa former gov of Kaduna in an helicoptal clash that also claimed Gen Azazi only for Ibb boys like Dasuki to take over and unleash d most wicked corruption on Nigeria;

Corruption to which catholic Bishops told us faithfuls to pray against daily in Nigeria. and now that God is answering our prayers it s disappointing that Father Kukah is not happy .

We are bidding our time and keeping Emefiele an exchequer who presided over d states looting busy till we are ready to hear him sing to Magu's beat.

If Bakare is to face his call that means we all don't also have right to comment on sociopolitical issues affecting us. You should delete your comments and stop airing your opinions, you should also be facing your call(work or purpose). #yinmu

Come to think of it, the CBN governor has an autonomy and he's technically not responsible to the president even though he appointed him. Will you belief Emefele if he says he didn't know that a large chunk of these money are being misappropriated. Did he document any report cum petition on this? Tell be when the CBN becomes a retail bank disbursing money to politicians. #yeyedeysmell

Bakare should be commended for saying what others wouldn't have said. Let the search light be beamed on the yam keeper. #TeamArrestTheYamkeeper

Nigeria can never be good if we don't stand up for the truth.

All that nonsense stopped when the ICC and UN decided to trial Hitler subordinates for obeying orders that lead to the death of millions of Jews.... By law you are not allowed to obey an order from your principal if you know the order is illegal.... What stops you from quitting? Or blowing the whistle like Sanusi? Even if you might get sacked but at least you saved yourself any criminal prosecution in the future

I am not a fan of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, in view of the many controversies created by him in office, but I must extol some of his virtues, especially his ability to interpret the CBN act so well to this extent, he took advantage of the act when need arises and administered the office with so much dexterity and astuteness. You remember the government of GEJ was uncomfortable with him in office especially with his independent and self-justification approach.

Emeifele, as CBN governor was a willing tool in the hands GEJ and associates; he is a yes man - boot licker. He is not different from the lots of Nigerian bank executives and officers you have out there who are paid well for generic and routine jobs, well dressed with little or no intellectual value other than deposit mobilization, F4, F10, F2 and enter. They can hardly do effective risk assets generation but depend on interest income on government and cheap funds from liabilities provided via deposits.

Having said that, I must remind readers that the CBN act created autonomy for the CBN government, hitherto the CBN governor has a right to adhere to the act governing the CBN when in contrast to the demands, instructions and directives of the GEJ government or any government at all. The CBN governor owes the nation and government fiduciary responsibility, especially in the interest of the nation.

Hence I conclude that his cooperation with GEJ, Okonjo-Iweala, Dasuki and associates to divert and embezzle public funds, defraud Nigeria, mismanage the economy, reloot the Abacha loot returned to Nigerian government, distort the flow in the supply of FOREX by flooding the economy with FOREX and ultimatetely drag Nigeria further into the mess the government was constituted to alleviate. Emeifele, Okonjo-Iweala, GEJ should stand accused as prime suspects in Dasukigate scandal. GEJ, Okonjo-Iweala and Emeifele created the avenue for fraud, they also aided Dasuki and other associates to defraud the nation, embezzle and misuse public funds.

You may not agree with me but I opine that they must be judged on earth and perharps in heaven by God almighty. The monumental abuse of office, corruption and ineptitude displayed by the democratically elected government of GEJ must be addressed and tried in the court of law. We urgently need to judge the matter to establish precedence in our case laws for future references and to serve as deterrence.
