I can see you are now avoiding me. Go and read the interpretation act and stop embarrassing yourself. Attached is a screenshot from the law. The president can suspend anyone he appoints.

Ofunaofu:


Yes I am

So the interpretation act supersede all act of the National assembly of which the CBN act is one

No matter how you look at it, the president will still need the support or approval of two-thirds majority of the senate to make this sack legal. Don't you think so

Kukutenla:

If we're to go by the words of this screenshot in conjunction with the CBN act then the president can't suspend him. The screenshot clearly says "power to remove or suspend" which means both remove and suspend are regarded as one and same thing. However, the CBN act clearly spells out the process of appointment and removal of a CBN gov and neither can be exercised without approval of the Senate. Where something is clearly spelt out, it needs no further interpretation says the supreme court.

Ofunaofu:
"According to Section 11(2)(f) of the CBN Act, the President shall remove the CBN Governor from office provided that the governor’s removal shall be supported by a two-thirds majority of the Senate praying that he be removed".

Hope this is not political vendetta

Remove and suspend are not the same thing. If they are the same, the law will simply say remove and nothing else. Or as used in the law is a conjunction that gives alternatives. The president that appoints can remove, suspend, sack etc. However, the interpretation will be read together with the principal act (CBN act) for proper interpretation of some provisions. The interpretation act alone cannot guide removal. Removal will be in accordance with the principal act and the interpretation act. Suspending however is not provided for in the provincial act so the interpretation act alone is enough.

Kukutenla:

The interpretation act does not confer powers on anybody. That's same mistake those who were defending Jonathan's suspension of Sanusi were making then, and it's instructive you who were on the opposite side then are employing same logic now.
Since we're talking about suspension and removal, can we apply same logic and say the NASS can suspend the president? I'm sure you'll change course now.
The interpretation act is an act used to interprete acts of the legislature not to confer powers. The use of removal OR suspension in that act is a corollary to the power to appoint. It's obvious the CBN act does not grant absolute apointing powers to the president over the CBN governor. It is shared with NASS. Same for his removal. If suspension does not exist in the CBN act, you can't rely on the interpretation act to introduce it if not, the president can as well rely on the interpretations act to unilaterally appoint a substantive CBN governor.
The use of removal or suspension is to establish that both follow same process not separately as you dissected it. That's the point I was making concerning the use of "or" in that section.

plaindealer:



Illogical analogy.

The President appoints the CBN governor, not the NASS

The NASS cannot suspend the President, they are a co-equal arm of government, and their one and only option is impeachment.

Parachoko:

Emefiele was not sack, he was only suspended
Tinubu is back by law to suspend him

Ofunaofu:


What is the difference between half a dozen and six

Ofunaofu:
"According to Section 11(2)(f) of the CBN Act, the President shall remove the CBN Governor from office provided that the governor’s removal shall be supported by a two-thirds majority of the Senate praying that he be removed".

Hope this is not political vendetta

4TFK:
There is a difference,For half a dozen , you need to establish what a dozen is and divide the value by 2. In the case of 6,just count 1,2.....to 6. Is it clear? 😂

How can you say you don't care

The law is being violated and you say you don't care

Tomorrow you might be a victim, who will speak for you.....

Kukutenla:

Seems you're not aware impeachment is another word for removal as far as Nigerian laws are concerned.
What is being discussed is not about hierarchy it's about powers conferred by the laws. If we're to go by your logic, NASS can't remove the president at all since they are co-equal but the laws don't agree with you.
The appointment of the CBN governor by the president is subject to 2/3 Senate approval. That's because the laws intends for the CBN and its board to be autonomous and independent of excessive executive interference

Emancipate yourself from ethnic and tribal bigotry

But you dey support Ipob. Dey play

You should rather free yourself from those tying down your parents like rams in Igboland.

StJohnKml:

I hope you understand english language eventually.

Suspension is not removal.

Before you reason far off, take time to check out the meaning of these words- Suspension and Removal/Sack.

If you are suspended in your office, does that mean you have been sacked?

Don't let bitterness blind you.

Ofunaofu:


I am not bitter and got no reason to be

In Nigeria, suspension is the Euphemism of sack

Even the suspension, is it backed by law, that is the purpose of this thread

StJohnKml:

You quoted a requisite criteria for the removal of the governor, oga.
If you wanna ask a question about suspension, ask your question. Don't mix the two.

How do you reference the act talking about removal when you are making an enquiry on suspension?

All these emotional nairalanders sef. Tueh!

plaindealer:



Sadly for you, in the eyes of the Nigerian constitution, the CBN gov was suspended, not removed or sacked.,

And per the rest of your irrelevant opinion and NASS, it's not even worth debating.
