How can a card carrying member be the Governor of the CBN?

Why is Bihari led government doing this to this nation. The other day he nominated a APC member as INEC commissioner which was loudly rejected.

The CBN Governor should have resigned a long time ago if he was interested in politics.

Haba!!!

....and maybe this,
Section 9 of the CBN Act of 2007 requires of both the Governor of the Central Bank and his deputies that they “shall devote the whole of their time to the service of the Bank and, while holding office, shall not engage in any full or part-time employment or vocation, whether remunerated or not, except such charitable causes as may be determined by the Board and which do not conflict with or conflict with their full-time duties

But this does not mean he should not belong to any "parry"

Jokers. The problem in Nigeria is Nigerians. The Nigerian constitution is not helping matters. That is the reason politicians can interpret it the way it suits them. How can cards carrying politicians be the CBN governor for crying out loud? Where does this kind of thing happen except in Nigeria? Which kind of country is this for Gods sake?

A neutral man can't get there either.The problem is that he is stupid on moral ground to try and take a position but being a member of APC is not issue and contesting too is not issue because he has freedom of Association.

But morally it is bad to d what he is doing

Please share your experience

He needs no to explain. If you are a politician or have worked with a politician you will understand better. If you are not in any of the above categories, forget about it, because you might not believe until you learned with experience. An adage in my place says a political promise is like a harlot or rainmaker promise, you don't relied on it. Don't ever trust any politician until the last result is announced.

There are a lot of assumptions we repeat so much as a nation, we start believing them. The bold is one. Over the last 30 years, the Chair of the US Federal Reserve have all been card carrying members of political parties.

That's the US.In Nigeria we have our own laws,we don't have to follow everything the US does because the mentality of citizens in the two countries is different.

Too much impunity under Buhari. I don't know of any Minister or CBN governor that could try that with Obasanjo.

The most useless and clueless CBN Governor in history.

How can such a person be a card carrying member of a party.

No wonder Buhari refused to remove him despite his failures.

Too late now...whether He is running or not he needs to resign asap...having obtained membership month's before shows intent. Also his last tweets shows deceit ...
IMMEDIATE resignation or outright removal then he can now run as an individual...shameful all through...

So much ado about nothing! The youths of today cry and play politics with everything.

1. Is there anything wrong with Mr Amefiele being a member of APC? NO.

2. Is there anything wrong with Mr Amefiele aspiring and contesting for President? NO.

3. Is there anything wrong with Mr Amefiele holding on to his CBN job while aspiring to be President? YES.


People should look for jobs to do and stop crying over simple issues.

bro the country tire me.

No wonder this man who killed our currency was busy giving free money to the northern farmers at the expense of their southern counterpart!


Emefiele is the worste Central Bank governor since the inception of Nigeria!

The only Law that shops Emefiele from contesting is a moral one

No...his registration as a member of a politcal party to be subject to party rules and regulations to act in the interest of his party is a clear breach of his charge of indepndence.

That he is courting the Presidential election, using proxies to buy form is another big absurdity.

Countries with working economies do not attempt to even justify something of this nature....sadly in Nigeria with a near comatose foreign exchange market some people attempt to debate the benefit of having a cbn government distracted by political interest

So the worst CBN Governor in the history of CBN governors in Nigeria actually wants to become president so he can destroy everything else Buhari forgot to destroy? Ok

Gangs of thieves , bunch of jokers , criminals everywhere , every body na thief for this country , naira Marley don kuku talk am b4 , imagine dis rubbish, malami is there and refuse to resign b4 contesting, dis wan is even still taking , somebody wey dem suppose don stone to death , mitcheeeeeeeew

No one is saying he should not contest. All they are saying is resign before you contest. When they talk about a level playing ground for everyone, that's what it means.

As the country's top treasure, judging from precedents of politicians, he can help himself with public funds in pursuing his presidential bid and use his influence as the governor and his vantage position as an insider to manipulate the books and cover his track.

Remember, Nigerian public servants and politicians are the some of the most fantastically corrupt around the world.

It's a no-brainer that he's got to get off the public till.

It's only in Nigeria that criminals boldly go to court seeking for protection against their wicked deeds.

If not that Emefiele and Buhari are co-travellers in corruption and looting, Godwin should have been sacked by now.

Our president is a very weak leader if not he should have asked the CBN governor to resign of he wants to go into politics.. all this nonsense should not have arise ..

If you want to contest, resign your position as CBN gov.

President Buhari regime is pathetic

So sad!

This one is small, you all want to vote tinubu abi. The worst is yet to come. The main corruption and thuggery is yet to come.

Lawyers are cashing out big time

CBN governor should resign if he desire to contest for a position.
That is common sense.
