There is no Nigerian law that bars an elective officeholder from having dual citizenship. The issue of DUAL Citizenship was settled in Bukola Saraki’s case and the court judgement is very clear. So, anyone pursuing dual citizenship in court is just entertaining us
@OladeleKapital
2: Court of Appeal in Port Harcourt also dismissed a case involving Tonye Cole as per DUAL CITIZENSHIP. Una go buy NWLR oooo

Another gaslighting razor blade face on the loose

seanfer:
Saraki's case is different, He didn't acquire his dual citizenship by choice but by Birth... so using that as example is a different thing entirely.

I am not a lawyer ooo! However, I think Hamzat is a GONER. Saraki did not acquire his British Citizenship, but Hamzat renounced hi Nigerian Citizenship.

See oath for US citizenship:

I am concerned that Tinsel needed you to quote for the second time a writeup that he had already quoted.
And to think that both times you quoted the pledge you had made a portion of it bold.
In what world do people not read what they are quoting and responding to
It's am worried for Nigerian youths

Yes, the United States allows dual citizenship. If you are a naturalized citizen, you don’t have to give up citizenship from your country of origin. U.S. immigration law does not prohibit dual nationality. The U.S. Supreme Court also ruled that people can “have and exercise rights of nationality in two countries.”

Shokoloko:

I googled this on uscis.gov/citizenship. It is clearly written on that US government website that the Naturalization Oath requires you to RENOUNCE and ABJURE ALL allegiance to your former country.
The proof you should be providing is a link, article that shoes that people who naturalized and swore this Oath (not those who had dual citizenship at birth and never needed to take the oath) can exercise rights of nationality in two countries.
I'd like to see your links if any. I do not have monopoly of knowledge.
