Emefiele is definitely going to jail.

Going to jail for what? He will go by the Supreme Court ruling. Old naira notes will be legal tender till 31st December. However, where will you find old naira notes? CBN will never bring back the more than two trillion old naira notes it has already recovered. Banks will be free to accept old naira notes and old naira notes will be accepted in the country as legal tender. But how much old naira notes will be in circulation? CBN has already achieved its objective.

lets vote Nigerians ...... VOTE BUYING OR FIGURE WRITTING



Which one is better? because i believe Buhari deprived and confiscate our cash,whereas politicians decided to write figures

My brother VOTE BUYING is better than VOTE WRITING. The next election I will hawk my vote

With Lawan as president, orji Kalu wanted to be janitor/ cleaner in Aso Rock.

Because we live in a country where the institutions are weak, many people don't know the seriousness of the offence of "CONTEMPT OF COURT" . Disobeying a lower court is a serious offence, disobeying the supreme Court is unthinkable. Whatever ruling the supreme Court gives becomes part of the Constitution . The president, CBN governor and the AGF are supposed to be in jail .

Money valid till Dec is part of Constitution now , useless supreme Court mtcheeeeeeeew I spit

Without prejudice to what else you wrote, it does NOT…
The Supreme Court cannot change, add to, or subtract from, the Constitution.

It can only “interpret” what’s already in the Constitution…
And even that interpretation can be later overturned by the Supreme Court.

That balded igbo man is going to jail, I advise him to pack his load and go exile before Buhari finished his antihuman govt

But a supreme court judgement said otherwise. It's a contempt of court and can be sent to jail for it. Pretty big offense.

Abegi, where did you go to law school and learn your own peculiar brand of “agency” law?

The Supreme Court is exacerbating the fictionalization of “federalism” in Nigeria…SMH



Exactly how is Nigeria purportedly operating a constitutional federal system if the federal government cannot take decisions on matters reserved for it without first consulting (and presumably seeking the approval of) state governments? Is the FG also required to consult with the LGAs? If not, why not, when said policies similarly affect LGAs?



The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Accordingly, while we can all empathize with the effects of purportedly bad policies on people, the law courts (including the Supreme Court) are neither empowered nor equipped to determine which policies of the executive branch are substantively good or bad or even which ones are ‘reasonable’.

have you ever heard that there are two types of constitutions which are the written and unwritten constitutions? Previous Supreme Court rulings form part of the unwritten constitution. If u don't know this, try and learn instead of arguing, we are all here to learn.

THE POLITICIZATION OF THE JUDICIARY AND THE JUDICIALIZATION OF POLITICS IN NIGERIA BOLSTERED BY THE SUPREME COURT…SMH

Why did the Supreme Court hold that the old notes shall remain legal tender until December 31, 2023? I am not even sure that was a relief requested by parties to the case, so why not indefinitely? Or (since it argues that the process was illegally implemented) until the process is properly and legally implemented?

Instead, by determining the December 31 time period for old notes to remain legal tender, the Supreme Court has INSERTED itself into the policy-making process and has SUBSTITUTED its own substantive policy over that of the President and the CBN Governor with respect to currency management, an area that is constitutionally and legally the EXCLUSIVE preserve of the latter.

Courts are neither empowered nor equipped to make a substantive determination which government policies are ‘good’ or ‘bad’, or to CHANGE substantive (executive or legislative) government policy. The constitutional power of Judicial Review granted to the judiciary is limited to determining whether laws or policies were wrongly or rightly made, not which different dates/substance should apply.

This judgment risks sacrificing confidence in the substantive neutrality of the judiciary on the altar of short-term political expediency.

Yes, there are 2 types of constitutions…
And Nigeria has chosen the WRITTEN type (as opposed to the UK, for example, which has the “unwritten” type).

The ONLY way to add to our written constitution is by LEGISLATIVE amendment (federal and state)…
Supreme Court rulings merely INTERPRET our written constitution, it CANNOT “create” new constitutional provisions!

You are just seeing the disobedience of court order in Nigeria. That's means you did be blind all these years.
