Even General David Patreaus was touted as a possible running mate to John McCain in the last US election. Thiis was while David was still commanding US soldiers in Iraq.

So people are allowed to join politics after retirement if the so wish.

Are you serious?

Thats even a better example than mine.

Even Singh of India was the Finance Minister who revolutionised the Indian economy and is now the prime minister.

In Nigeria its something else.

Your blindness is even more obvious.
You missed the trip to Nigeria Reality Show. Simple question, if he joined, when, any fact? You prefer to throw unnecessary tantrums about political campaigns.

As far as i'm concerned, Soludo reserves the right to contest any election in Nigeria.

What facts do you need?. When Soludo personally confessed his membership of the party over the years. His confession is no longer a fact cos you are in his pay list?

meexteriox:

Now your stupidity is going olympics.

What is this sudden "public relations" for Falana all about? What is his problem with Soludo?
I see this as unnecessary news making, he should direct his judiciary prowess at other things and not Soludo.
He is no saint, afterall.

Your stupidity is already winning Olympic gold medal? Pls u cant achieve much by insulting people, Its better to make your point. The question is what was Falana achieved for Nigeria? and i responded by giving him a good answer.

Even if you dont like Falana, But you must admited that he has done for Nigerians what Soludo will never do for them.

Soludo's counterpart in UK is Mervyn King, not Gordon Brown.

Chancellor of the exchequer is a political post, Central Bank governor is not.

Whilst any membership of PDP in 2006 by a CBN Governor is questionable, it is not a jailable crime.

Every Nigerian has the right to be a member of a political party.Whether you are a Chief judge, Teacher, Armed Robber, Cleaner, Pastor or whatever.
The idea is that in holding certain positions as sensitive as maybe a CBN Governor, Chief Judge, Clergy etc, you are not to allow your political affiliation to have any impact on your job description.

So I don't know what this Falana guy is talking about. Truly activists are only useful for military regimes. They always seem to loose salt when democracy is practised.

well said my brother.

Please how is the CBN Governor not a political appointment?

He is classed like every other cabinet Minister except for the fact that they have tenures and duration in office.

I wonder if u have any legal knowledge or training giving u confidence to just disregard the view of a SAN on the legality of Soludo's appointment
