This is serious, CBN governor should come and prove his innocence instead of hiding. But DSS should obey the court order first. What is Buhari saying about this whole saga? 12 Likes |

That CBN governor is one of the worst in history. The first cbn governor to be openly partisan to the extent of Picking up presidential form of APC The first one to supervise over multiple exchange rate that only encouraged corruption. The first to supervise the drastic drop in the rate of Naira as against major currencies in the world. I don't want to hear he was simply following orders because if he wasn't enjoying his role,he would have simply resigned and he won't definitely pick up the presidential ticket. I also don't want to hear how cashless economy will affect politicians from rigging because majority of this politicians are share holders in all major Banks and they know how to bypass the rule. The aim of cashless economy is often to control excess money supply within the economy that causes inflation. It's not to target election rigging. However, majority of Nigerian inflation is not caused by excess money supply but the over exposure of our economy to external factors like our falling currency and increases in global prices of goods due to the war in Ukraine. NB: if you check well, The world Bank or International monetary fund(IMF) has requested this harsh anti-people policy together with the deregulation of petrol prices before borrowing us money. 18 Likes 1 Share |

Brendaniel:How does this Cashless policy target politicians that have access to mutiple Business accounts? The cashless economy will Target the informal sector of Nigeria which accounts for nearly 50% of employment for ordinarily Nigerians.

Iamgrey5: You don't get it, do you, we are talking about vote buying on election day, how many Almajiris have bank account for transfer, how many people will want to receive bank transfer for vote buying, how many transactions can be done as quick as cash payment during the election timing, how many failed transactions due to network and so on that will cause fights in various polling units, the vote buyers obviously know this is a disaster waiting for them if they are banking on Vote buying. Cash payment still remains the, easiest, quickest and safest means of vote buying for both the buyer and the seller. 3 Likes 1 Share |
Re: Falana: DSS Does Not Need Court Order To Arrest Emefiele by Iamgrey5(m): 6:53pm On Jan 16, 2023 |
Brendaniel:You don't get it Majority of this politicians control the banks and have access to mutiple Business accounts which they can draw multiple 5million from in a instant. Many vote buying is actually done at the ward level anyway. Hence, many politicians don't even need to withdraw 2bn at once for vote buying. There's no central bank official in the world that will tell you that the banks has any tool to stop vote buying, rigging or corruption because it's not there job. It's just wishful thinking 4 Likes |

Brendaniel:We all know a CBN governor is not meant to be partisan.The moment he declared for presidency, any decision he takes will be viewed from the political angle....This alone is enough for him to step aside if he has integrity.. Among the reasons DSS gave was terrorism financing.He has so many dirt's on him already.Hes not clean and the DSS knows about it. 5 Likes |

Brendaniel:FYI, Peter Obi controls Fidelity bank, so he has access to unlimited amount of new notes. I won't be surprised if he has Ghana-must-go full of new notes hidden in his bedroom. The new notes that the common man are denied to have could be lying in a bunker in Peter Obi's house 4 Likes |

Iamgrey5: The new currency that has been printed is not enough to do that, Emefiele is caging big spenders, currencies are printed in batch, sometimes it takes months or years before a new batch is printed again, no matter how you want to circulate this present batch it cannot achieve what the cite buyers want to do, as I am talking to you do you know how much of the new currency with me, not because you ate Tinubu or Atiku means that all the new currency will be taken and given to them because of election. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.vanguardngr.com/2022/12/naira-redesign-we-ordered-500-million-copies-from-minting-company-emefiele/amp/ Do the maths of 500 million copies of the new currency against a population of over 200 million people. CBN is not printing a new batch anytime soon, that is why they cut down withdrawal limits for new currency to each invidual so it can go round. |

Iamgrey5: That is what I am saying, 200 million people are not heading to the polls but 200 million will need the money to spend, that means each Nigerian cannot hold more 2 of the new currency to spend, then do you know how much of the new note will be required for vote buying on election day, money that has circulated already that some are doing tiktok challenge washing it up and down.... |
