If this happens in the US, proceedings to impeach a president that defies the Supreme Court would be swift.

People don't seem to understand that in undermining the Supreme Court, this President has set a very dangerous precedent that goes to the very roots of the country's legitimacy as a constitutional entity. Other Presidents are likely to do same in future.

Once the Supreme Court is defenestrated, we are on the road reckless lawlessness.

Foreign investors will look at the disregard for even the Supreme Court & they will say no, thank you, we would rather invest in another country where Court rulings affecting our contractual and property rights will be respected.

Supreme court has no knowledge of monetary policy. If you think otherwise why can't the supreme court pass a judgment against naira devaluation or decree the naira be exchanged at a certain amount.... Issues like this is clearly out of their jurisdiction and the power lies solely with the CBN governor. Politicians always go to court if things don't go their way, sadly not this one

lolz APC AND Tinubu urchins should cry me a river! make i see how una go take change una 1000 notes to 200 naira sotay e go reach everybody una wan buy votes from

The Supreme Court issued an order, Buhari issued a parallel order. Is Buhari bigger than the Supreme Court?. He is setting a dangerous precedent, he should h respected the sanctity of the highest court and asked Nigerians to wait the judgement of the SC.

Day don break for this one.
Where you dey when Nnamdi Kanu dey go court

Parachoko:
Adegboruwa is right

The matter is still in court

have you heard about an Executive Order?

The supreme Court first shot herself in the leg. This is the Supreme court that gave verdict to a person who came fourth. This is the Supreme court that gave judgement to people who did not contest for election. The people are with the President in this

Savedday2:
Yeye supreme court wey dey put their judgement for sale. Who even take them serious anymore?

Each time I hear supreme court, what I see is Imo state governor, Lawal and Akpabio.

if u don't see bayelsa gorvenor too then just shut up there bias PDP and obedient mutula

Shatap Adeshit

Listen to a lunatic lawyer is the supreme Court pronouncement not illegal too?

When you are able to differentiate between
INTERIM ORDER or INTERLOCUTORY INJUNCTIONS, then you will understand where the President is coming from

He has already override supreme Court judgement. Don't play with a general in the army. Tinubu should go and hug transformer.

Nigeria's problem is that we're still trying to work out who senior who?
I senior you. Gan si down.
Eh me!? Who are you?
I senior you first. See my 5 cars.

It really showed that Buhari, didn't want some candidates now parading themselves as presidential candidate just because they can buy over politicians. It also make sense now that president would have preferred Osinbanjo but couldn't help.

The Supreme Court of Machina

donb06:

What I can deduce logically from your wonderful piece is all those that have been supporting Buhari have being DUMB MOFOS.

For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction you know. Buharists (THE ACTORS) taught Nigerians wrongly. The Non- Buharists (THE REACTORS) are only playing out what THE ACTORS have been doing for the past 7 years. Don't blame THE REACTORS. Hope we learn for future references.

How many people in the North or Sw do you know that supports Buhari blindly or always making excuses for his failures? I don't know many.
The difference between the so called 2 actors that you identified is this- one group have shown over the years including when they supported Jonathan to always blindly support someone because of tribal leanings and to always blames others for the failure of the person they support. When Jonathan was failing, these people blamed the opposition for lack of fuel towards the end of his administration . They claimed it was Tinubu that made fuel scares.
The other actors have loyalty too but you will not hear any reasonable one among them saying Peter Obi is responsible for the failures of Buhari. They will admit that this govt have not lived up to their expectations. You will not hear an average Northerner claiming that Buhari failed because some other tribe sabotage his administration. They will accept their failure and move one.
So your analysis is invalid.

THE PRESIDENT IS ACTING LIKE A DICTATOR.

U CAN'T OVERULE.THE SUPREME COURT JUDGEMENT.

IN AS MUCH AS THE POLICY IS GOOD TO CURB VOTE BUYING.
HE SHOULD MAKE IT WELL DIPLOMATIC.

Stop talking like an illiterate, SC has jurisdiction over matters brought before it by the state government against the federal government and if it doesn't, it will refer the matter back to the lower court.

Why didn’t they take it to the Federal High Court in the first instance?

You people are just funny and hypocritical!

Na today day break?!!! Is this the first time that charlatan has been disregarding rule of law?!!

Many of you shouted us down when we talked about his impeachment several years back!

Even Tinubu supported him too!

All of a sudden, everyone of you now remembers there is something called Impeachment! Lol! It's too late abeg!

Everyone hiding and stocking up old notes should quit pretending that they care about rule of law or the welfare of the masses! They don't!

#200 is for the poor

you accepted that you are a poor person. I felt disappointed anytime I read some comments concern this matter here. I'm so sure most of you that support this policy are either educated illiterate or economically novice. if you have your personal business that deals with farmers, market people etc that don't run bank account or know anything about transfer, you won't be here with your political view talking this way.

Each arm of government is meant to checkmate the other. The supreme court is only doing just that

Lol....checkmate?? You are talking theory...
Its like u are not in nigeria.... did the supreme court just wake up?? With all the injustice in this land....

Both emefiele and the supreme court reports to the commander in cheif......

One mistake....the commander in cheif appoints the head of the apex court and sorts all of them with ghana must go...

...so we are just deceiving ourselves in this country when supreme court was giving court order to override the President's initial order...

it was a dead on arrival court order

Your years in school na like Buhari administration...wasted when he kept Nnamdi despite the court freeing him we were here saying it is bad for democracy but you are here supporting nonsense shame on you today, tomorrow and forever until the day you block that hole at the back of your head where your brain fluid is freely leaking from
