Naira Redesign: You’re Bound To Obey Supreme Court Judgement – Falana Warns CBN by Clevite(m): 4:09pm On Feb 09, 2023
Foremost human rights activist, Femi Falana, SAN, has disclosed why the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, must comply with the Supreme Court order regarding the currency swap crisis.

Falana, in a statement on Thursday, said the apex bank should not fall for the reports and opinions indicating that it could ignore the Supreme Court’s judgement restraining it from enforcing the ban on the old Naira notes.

In his statement titled, “Why CBN Must Obey Ex Parte Order Of Supreme Court”, he highlighted many cases supporting the court’s decision.

He asked CBN and its management to allow the judgement to run its entire course in the interim, pending an order of dismissal filed by the Federal Government.

Falana warned doing otherwise would spell doom and chaos for the country.

“In the interim, the Federal Government of Nigeria and its agencies, including the Central Bank of Nigeria, are bound by the valid and subsisting ex parte order of the Supreme Court of Nigeria until it is set aside by the same court. The alternative is to compound the ongoing anarchy and chaos in the land,” he said.

Please help them by telling them o before political jobbers lawyers railroad Emefiele into jail. It is written in plain baby English and anyone struggling to understand it yet calls himself a lawyer is just being mischievious or criminally-minded

Below is what the Supreme Court held:


In his ruling, the Justice revealed that after careful consideration of the motion exparte, this application is granted as prayed.

An order of Interim Injunction restraining the federal government through the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) or the commercial banks from suspending or determining or ending on Feb. 10, the time frame with which the now older version of the 200, 500 and 1,000 denomination of the naira may no longer be legal tender pending the hearing and determination of their motion on notice for interlocutory injunction.”


It is high time NJC and NBA sanction lawyers making a mockery of the SC on this issue.

Mr Falana, a well respected legal luminary should not get himself involved in this political fight, the FG knows what to make of the SC order.

Why sanction the lawyers now? All this while the Federal Government have been disobeying court order even when the court have freed the person, FG still go ahead to disobey the court. So this won't be different.
