God revealed to me that due to CBN cashless and New Naria note redesign policy. That there will be low voters turn out because no money for electorate to travel to their polling unite as hunger bite voters, this will help the big party to rigg the election. This hunger and frustration will lead to an uprising by the electorate in some states which will lead to insecurity issue. INEC will encounter logistics, INEC ad-hoc staff (slow payment) death) and material distribution issues. If the naria redesigned policy do not change after 22nd of February 2023. Election maybe postponed if the New naria policy persist due to insecurity. Be aware of thugs in this general election. God Most High is Supreme Ministry.

Which one be travel to polling unit ?

Have you seen people moving around during election ?
Your polling unit is close to your bustop...

Wali84:
why will South south vote an Ipob candidate

What's this one saying?

I thought he said Visiting the south south and . South East which is inconsequential Christian zones is a wasting of time before the primaries...

What's he looking for at the aforementioned zones now with his boko haram running mate ?

Oh I forgot, he didn't see Atiku and Kwakwaso coming.. He put so much hope and trust on only northern votes ..

Very useless and stupid boy

Nnamdi Kanu has said it several times that this boy is not working for him, that he's an enemy of ndi Igbo, yet he stays in Finland causing trouble here and there for Great Igbo race ..
How can a sane human being doing the same thing often and on and expect a different result ?
This will tell you that he was sent by the enemies of Igbos to destroy Igbo land while his family are enjoying in Finland..

Well the masses are now awake, they are waiting for another clown that will shout sit at home on election and face jungle justice like the one that was burnt in Onitsha yesterday..

Simon Ekpa is working for Tinubu, more reason he defends Tinubu on Twitter all the time and Tinubu political banners were seen on his table (Pictures attached below) just because of 700 million Naira they paid him...


It's a pity!!

Our Security Agencies Cooperating With Nigeria On Possible Arrest Of Simon Ekpa – Finnish Government

The Nigeria's Ministry of Foreign Affairs had summoned the Finnish Ambassador, over activities of the Nigerian-Finnish Biafran agitator, Simon Ekpa.

The Finnish Ambassador to Nigeria, Leena Pylvanainen, has expressed displeasure over the orders given by Simon Ekpa to his teeming followers to disrupt the forthcoming general elections in the West African country.

Pylvanainen said that the law enforcement agencies were in touch and were cooperating on Ekpa.




“We do have this irritant, as you call it on our bilateral agenda. And it is a topic on which we have been cooperating, our authorities have been cooperating, there have been contacts between the law enforcement agencies of Nigeria and Finland on this topic,” she said.

The Nigeria's Ministry of Foreign Affairs had summoned the Finnish Ambassador, over activities of the Nigerian-Finnish Biafran agitator, Simon Ekpa.


Ekpa, a self-acclaimed disciple of the detained leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, has been championing the restoration of Biafra Republic and calling for boycott of elections in the South-East region of Nigeria unless Kanu was released.

He has sustained Monday Sit-at-home protest against continued detention of Kanu in the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) despite several court orders directing his unconditional release.

Recently, Ekpa declared five days sit-at-home protest starting from February 23 to 28, a development that had put fear in many Easterners that the presidential election could be derailed.

Sequel to the concerns, the Minister of Foreign Affairs Minister, Geoffrey Onyeama on Tuesday summoned the Finnish Ambassador to Nigeria, Leena Pylvanainen, to express displeasure over the orders given by Simon Ekpa to his teeming followers who consequently embarked on alleged killings, maiming, burning and other destructive activities.



The minister who was represented by the Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Zubairu Dada said Ekpa’s action was fast becoming a threat to the forthcoming election, and that the Federal Government would not take it lightly with him and the Finland government if something drastic was not done.

According to Dada, Simon Ekpa is living in the comfort of his home in Finland and dishing out dangerous orders to his followers not to allow elections to hold which is threatening the peace of the south-eastern Nigeria.



“We thought it was important for us to have this chat with you to let you know that, of course, he’s living in the comfort of his home there in Finland and we know that we have been in touch with your good self,” Dada said.



“We’ve had some time to ensure that we arrest this situation but it appears the situation is getting out of hand. And we’re saying enough is enough. We should let you know, in very strong terms that it’s high time you really mean and back Nigeria with the quest that something be done immediately because he threatens the forthcoming elections.



“The sad thing is that this gentleman has a lot of followers out there. And the moment he issues these instructions, what happens is that you have destruction the very next day. They embarked on killings, maimings and burning and you name it. And we believe this is not

funb01:
When will you people realize that the APC is playing a mind game with Nigerians?

They are only creating a situation that makes Buhari appear cruel to people, while Tinubu is seen to be in support of the people.

Or how will you explain why the President is executing a policy that will undermine the success of his party at the poll while also supporting the flagbearer of the same party.

Forget all the noise, there's no rancor whatsoever within the APC, particularly between Emefiele and Tinubu... All na planned work.

And Tinubu will definitely get sympathy votes if things continue like this. Also, this policy will be counterproductive as it will make more people vulnerable to vote buying.

Buhari is not apolitical party man. To Buhari, his ethnicity or tribe comes ist before any other interest..
Do you know that Buhari doesn't belive in Fed character?, If not that constitution mandated him to pick ministers across all states, some states will end up without a minister..
Buhari is not a political party man and hates federal character..
To make it clearer for you, we were thinking that the so called anointed candidate was Osibanjo or Amechi because it's expected that power should come to the south, behold we recently found out that the so called anointed candidate was even another northern Muslim in the name of Lawan..

Kemi adeosun was removed as a minister, it's expected that someone from Ogun should replace her position or someone from south West, but No, Buhari replaced her with a northern Muslim leaving Ogun space vacant, with excuse that Ogun misused their slot..

During Jonathan's time, he removed some ministers and replaced them with same people from the same Geo political zone, but Buhari's case is different...


Buhari no send send APC or carry party matter for head... How many times have you seen him intervening in APC leadership crisis unlike other presidents?

internationalman:
Let's stop deceiving ourselves. Emefiele has already prepared a large sum of new Naira notes for Tinubu.

Ridiculous assumptions..

For the fact that nobody that contested APC primary election is supporting Tinubu is enough msg for you to understand the perception they have on Bola..

Since 2020, Buhari's body language against Tinubu's ambition has been very visible to the blind ... It didn't start today..

What happend before the primaries is enough evidence

Dem go cry tire...

Emefele and Buhari are laughing

BREAKING: El-Rufai, Yahaya Bello storm Supreme Court over naira scarcity

Governor Nasir El-Rufai

By Biodun Busari

Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, and his Kogi State counterpart, Yahaya Bello, have arrived at the Supreme Court to monitor proceedings in a suit their states filed against the Federal Government and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on the Cashless Policy Regime.


The two governors arrived in the courtroom around 8:30 am in the company of their supporters and top government officials.

The Federal Government is expected to engage in a legal battle with three states challenging the implementation of the Cashless Policy Regime introduced by the CBN.

The governor also claimed that Emefiele’s policies would frustrate the All Progressives Congress (APC)’s chances of winning the presidential election scheduled for February 25, 2023.

Akeredolu has indirected accepted that Bola has pilled up billions of Naira at home for vote buying, hence the outcry...

I see ...

God forbids... Tinubu is very corrupt and unfit to be President!!

Buhari Is well prepared

Expect adjournment till after the election

I no fit laugh

El Rufai e no go better for you..

If you think that the presidency didn't prepare for this , then you are clown ...

To complicate the matter, Emefele insisted on 10th Feb deadline despite supreme court order !!

This will tell you how prepared they are

How would you sanction them?

Shut down the banks in your state ?
Doing that will escalate the situation and attract more hatred to anything APC..

The anger in people against APC now in gaining momentum..

Masses are not interested in any Emefele story or cabals.. Their focus now is APC, that is why they nearly killed man they came to buy fuel with APC campaign bus

sketcherJ:
so as a realist, who do you think would win bro?

The polls are very audible to the deaf and visible to the blind

They should hold APC government responsible because APC is the ruling party..

Those that are desperately seeking to separate Tinubu from Buhari are wasting their time.. Average Nigerian no ask you that one

Tinubu is out of the race with that demonic Muslim Muslim ticket ... His defeat is inevitable and there is absolutely nothing he can do

He lost the day Atiku and Kwakwaso came on board ..
For Tinubu to win without SE&SS like Buhari, he has to win 80% of entire northern Nigeria which is highly impossible today due to the emergence of Atiku and Kwakwaso.. And SE and SS are red zones for Tinubu...

Tinubu is hoping on northern APC, begging their governors up and down without acknowledging the fact that the same factor that will make Atiku to loose SE and SS will equally make Tinubu to loose northern APC states

WHEN WE TELL YOU THAT TINUBU WILL LOOSE, WE WILL EQUALLY GIVE YOU BREAKDOWN HOW HE'S GOING TO LOOSE. WE ARE REALISTS, WE DON'T BELIEVE IN FANTASIES

This is what Tinubu supporters wont tell you.. They so much love swimming in the ocean of delusion to keep going..

Tinubu's desperation is second none..

Nigerians don't care about that your useless advert because you can't separate Tinubu from Buhari... It's dead on arrival.. You kept mute all these years about Buhari's policies because it's favouring you, only to cry out and pretend to be with the masses two weeks before the election because his latest policy is not in your favour

What Nigerians know is that APC is the root of their problem and will never vote for anything APC again that brought pains to them ..

Separating Tinubu from Buhari will definitely hit the rock because Tinubu has the ticket of the ruling party..

Clowns everywhere

Cowards will leave Buhari and start attacking Emefiele, they want to sell the impression that
It's Emefiele's decision, even when they all know the real truth inside them ..

I don't know if some of all these urchings really have human brains..

Oh, I forgot they are afraid of attacking Buhari to avoid the remaining Bockvotes they are salivating for sinking in the mud since Atiku and Kwakwaso have taken the lion share

No need extending deadline for old notes — CBN

By Emma Ujah, Johnbosco Agbakwuru, Victoria Ojeme, Joseph Erunke, James Ogunnaike & Bashir Bello, ABUJA

Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Mr Godwin Emefiele, yesterday, told the Diplomatic Corps that an extension of the February 10 deadline for the circulation of the redesigned N200, N500 and N1, 000 notes was unnecessary.


He spoke at the meeting on the redesigned Naira policy held at the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Abuja.

Emefiele spoke on a day governors of Kano and Ogun states, Abdullahi Ganduje, and Dapo Abiodun, respectively, threatened to shut down banks in their states, if they continued to reject the old naira notes.

However, the CBN governor noted the challenges posed by the policy but assured that it would be brief since his team was working assiduously to address the issues it had thrown up, including the availability of the new notes.



He blamed the scarcity of the new notes on the activities of some unscrupulous bankers and members of the society, who were trying to sabotage the policy, warning that such people would be sanctioned along with Point of Sales, POS, operators imposing heavy charges on customers.

The CBN governor said: “PoS agents who are supposed to help are getting involved in these activities.

‘’We have EFCC, ICPC working with our monitoring team to arrest any PoS agent that charges any fee because we have made it clear that whatever is their fee, which is not meant to be more than N200 for any amount you exchange that we, CBN, will pay as part of our effort to lessen the burden of this problem.”

Some POS operators charge as much as 20 to 30 per cent of the amount customers withdraw in new notes.

He noted that some powerful public figures are trying to exaggerate the inconveniences arising from the policy but said there is no justification to create undue panic in the society.


According to the CBN boss, the “tension and elevated agitation are by our leaders who should be calming frayed nerves of the citizens.

‘’We believe the large proportion of these agitations are staged, they are sponsored propaganda or an exaggeration of the reality.”

FG to take position after Supreme Court ruling

The Federal Government yesterday stated that it will take decision on the legality of the old currency notes of N200, N500 and N1000 after the determination of the suit filed by some state governments at the nation’s apex court.

Three states, Kogi, Kaduna and Zamfara had dragged the Federal Government to the Supreme Court asking that the February 10 deadline by the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, should be extended.

The court had fixed February 15 (today) to determine the suit.

Some Nigerians have accused the Federal Government and the CBN of contempt of court and are insensitive to the hardship many Nigerians are passing through as a result of the scarcity of cash.

But the Federal Government last night said that decision will only be taken after the determination of the suit in the Supreme Court.

The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu said: “We wish to state that it is not true that the Federal Government or the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN have taken a preemptive action on the legality of currency as a legal tender in view of the pendency of the case before the Supreme Court.

“The position of the government and the CBN will be made known upon the determination of the suit coming up tomorrow, Garba Shehu said.”


Panic mop-up of Naira notes

On the queues at ATMs, he said: “We have also noticed panic mop-up of notes. The CBN has also noticed that some of our leaders are buying the notes and storing them for whatever purposes.

‘’We have also noticed that some Nigerians are capitalising on the time of transition to charging exorbitant fees. These selfish actions for personal monetary gains are causes of hardship for Nigerians and come at the expense of lives and livelihoods.

“The situation has substantially calmed down since the commencement of Over-The-Counter, OTC, payment to complement ATM disbursement and the use of super agents. There is, therefore, no need to consider any shift from the deadline of February 10.

“There are pockets of pressure in some areas. CBN has also noticed long queues at some bank ATMs and banking halls. While some of these withdrawal requests are genuine, some are simply reprehensible activities of miscreants who do not have intentions of making a withdrawal but seeking quick earnings just to queue up and sell their space for money but the CBN is working hard to shift resources to those areas in order to ease the tension.


“We will continue to issue and circulate new notes but once we get to our optimal level or slightly above, we will seek to put in place a policy that people must not keep money in their homes, they must return it back.”

Benefits of policy so far

The apex bank boss reiterated the benefits of the naira redesign, arguing that it had helped in reducing inflation and a moderating in exchange rates.

Emefiele appealed to the Diplomatic Corps and Nigerians to support the policy which, according to him, has become necessary in the monetary authority’s efforts towards curbing high inflation in the country.

He also said that the positive effects of the policy are already being felt in the economy, with inflation already trending downwards, stressing that it will go a long way in addressing challenges in the foreign exchange market.


“The policy will accelerate the cashless policy of the monetary authorities which has been in the works for many years, spanning different administrations,’’ he said, noting that the current inflation rate is being significantly driven by insecurity which had made it difficult for crop farmers to optimise their potentials, as well as, election spending, and the effects of the global market environment.

Banks, and business owners stop accepting old notes

It was gathered yesterday that banks and business owners in Abuja have stopped accepting the old N200, N500 and N1,000 notes.

Those who attempted to deposit old notes in their banks were told to take such notes to the CBN themselves.

Business owners and filling stations also stopped accepting the old notes. But Emefiele noted that the nation’s economy is expected to grow at the rate of 3.6 per cent for 2023 and that both monetary and fiscal authorities will synergise to have the best outcomes for the nation.


472 CSOs hail Emefiele for standing firm

Meanwhile, no fewer than 472 civil society organisations, CSOs, in the country have hailed Emefiele for standing firm on the full implementation of the new naira policy deadline, tasking him not to shirk his responsibility of enthroning a sound economic policy for the country.

The groups, under the aegis of the Civil Society Central Coordinating Council, at a briefing in Abuja yesterday, claimed that Nigerians had started seeing the gains of the new naira policy of the Federal Government.

The group had, last week, passed a vote of confidence on the new naira policy and on both President Muhammadu Buhari and the CBN governor.

National Coordinator of the group, Obed Okwukwe, who read the prepared text, said the hitches of unavailability of cash for small businesses are not unconnected to sabotage.


G-10 Govs mopping new notes

Noting that money moves in cycles, he said the scarcity of cash being witnessed by Nigerians was because state governors are mopping up the money and stopping it from circulating.

He said: “Since the implementation of the new Naira policy, Nigerians and indeed the system have started seeing the gains. Except for the hitches of the unavailability of cash particularly for small businesses, which is caused by sabotage from those who do not want the policy so they can continue with their illicit trade, other major indicators show that the impact of the policy on our economy is quite positive.

“Also on security, the impact is being felt as kidnappers now know that there is no cash to pay for ransom. In our electoral process, it is now obvious to Nigerians that it is only the vote buyers that are complaining.

“This policy is facing a syndicated attack from a group of governors who we have termed the G-10 Governors.


“These governors have vowed that this policy will not see the light of the day. They are willing to go the extra mile, including making our country ungovernable and undermining constitutional governance and bringing the entire country to a halt, all for their own reasons.”

The prepared text read in part: “The CBN had announced that it deployed N300 billion in cash as the first tranche of cash it disbursed. We all can agree that the money was hijacked and did not trickle down to the people and the people who took hold of it from the commercial banks have not brought it out to circulate.

“They are withholding the money,, using various means including deploying agents who use multiple ATM cards to withdraw the money, colluding with their bank agents to continue to trap the moneys in the banks and buying off cash from business places that ordinarily make huge cash transactions like petrol stations, supermarkets and department stores.

“This has made some of these businesses insist on only cash payment as the profit they make from the sales of the Naira covers for the loss of business from those who do not have the cash to pay.

“We have uncovered a grand plot by 10 governors, who have resolved to make Nigeria ungovernable for President Muhammadu Buhari if he refuses to reverse the new Naira policy.


“It is amazing to note that the governors behind this plot were the same governors who, a couple of years ago, took advantage of every opportunity to praise President Buhari to high heavens.

“However, obviously because the second tenure is coming to an end, these governors now believe that the President is not deserving of their respect. That is quite hypocritical. It means all they were showing the President was sycophantic solidarity, hence we must, therefore, remind them at this point in time that President Buhari is and still remains the President and Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria until May 29, 2023, and not one day before.

“Unfortunately, these governors have switched allegiance to a new godfather, not minding that he is yet to win the Presidential election. They are willing to dare constitutional governance and do anything including creating anarchy just to enthrone him and achieve their narrow political ambitions. Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State as you all know has announced that once their candidate wins, they would cancel the new Naira policy.

“Our intelligence shows that there will be intensified cash-scarcity drama across the geopolitical zones. People will pretend to collapse, people will go naked. There will be pre-arranged fights and many other things to press home their demands.

“Many people have been activated to make this happen. Groups have also been mobilized to daily report at various bank ATM locations to always stand around and help create the impression and make it look like there are crowds at the banks who are not being attended to.


“Scenes will be created and this is expected to put more pressure on the system and lead to the abandonment or reversal of the policy.

‘’It must be noted that this policy has succeeded in reducing the financial recklessness, money laundering and vote buying capacities of these governors, hence the ferocious fight they are giving the policy.

‘’If, like they say, their concern is the suffering of poor citizens in their states, one would now ask: Why have they not thought out any ideas that could make the policy work? Why are they only interested in ensuring that the policy is abandoned or killed?

“In case they do not know, Nigerians are happy that this policy has hit them hard and curtailed their excesses. Nigerians are totally in support of this policy and for now, the governors can cry all they want, the policy lives and the old naira notes are gone for good.

“Their plot to instigate businesses to shut down and go on strike, claiming cash scarcity, will fail as Nigerians have seen through all these. The storyline that has been spun that the cash scarcity was designed to make their candidate look bad is a false narrative; these 10 governors are behind the scarcity to force abandonment.”


Reject old notes, face sanctions, Ganduje, Abiodun threaten banks

Indeed, Kano and Ogun state governments have warned that they would not hesitate to revoke operational licenses of major business owners or take action on anyone who refused to accept the old naira notes as a means of transaction in their states.

Governor Abdullahi Umar Ganduje of Kano State, who handed down the warning in a statement by the Commissioner for Information and Internal Affairs, Malam Muhammad Garba, yesterday, said the old naira notes were still legal tender.

He said the Supreme Court was emphatic on its interim injunction on the issue of old naira notes, which would continue to be used as legal tender hand-in-hand with the new ones until gradual and final phase out.

The governor noted that it had come to the notice of the government that some business owners, such as supermarkets, malls, banks, restaurants, hotels, traders in markets, filling stations, and motor parks, among others, were in the habit of rejecting the old naira notes for business transactions.


Ganduje said this non-acceptance by some selfish individuals was worsening the already tense situation exacerbated by non-availability of the new naira notes.

“Business and economic activities are seriously affected by the naira redesign and unfortunately, some self-centered individuals are cashing in on the situation to cause further hardship on the people by not accepting the old naira notes during transactions,” the statement added.

He said the people had suffered enough hardship and the state government would not fold its arms and allow a few selfish elements to worsen the situation.

Similarly, Ogun State governor, Dapo Abiodun, threatened to shut down any commercial bank operating in the state that refused to accept old naira notes.

Addressing market men and women at Itoku Kampala market in Abeokuta, as part of his re-election campaign in Abeokuta North Local Government Area, yesterday, Abiodun frow-ned on the action of the banks. He noted that since the new naira notes were not available, commercial banks must accept the old notes to ease the suffering of the people, urging the people to remain calm, assuring that his government was working assiduously to ensure that the present situation was brought under control.

You know why it cant work.... a yoruba family is usually mixed, someone may have an aunt or inlaw as Muslim or Christian , so u have failed you shameless thing

So Akintola is a bastard?

Asiwaju lo kan!!

Ngeneukwuenu, you and your satanic Muslim Muslim ticket is dead on arrival ...!!!

APC and PDP candidates trashed Tinubu's picture, they went ahead and became bold to use Obi's picture to campaging in Rivers state which is anti party activities because they know where the masses are going, and here you are on nairaland rejoicing over few clowns that put on cap to milk Tinubu the remains of his bullion van...

Wake up !!

Wike and attention seeking are like 5&6..
Who are these clowns ?



Make dem no wear that cap near where crowd dey before they go experience the same thing Okowa experienced in Asaba when he was shouting Atiku and PDP

Like I have always said, the same factor that will make Atiku to loose SS and SE despite the aforementioned regions being PDP stronghold, will equally make Bola to loose northern APC states to Atiku and Kwakwaso

SLAP44:
Because investors will.pour in and want to set up more industries.

Nice

I hate Jungle justice with passion and I strongly condemn this act!!

Meanwhile, this will serve as a lesson to other clowns working against Labour party in the name of IPOB who think they can instill fear on people to boycott the election...

As you can See, the masses are very clear with their stand concerning this election

Thank God IPOBS have said there is no sit at home, people can exercise their political right..So anyone seen enforcing any sit at home is an enemy of ndi Igbo, just like that Ekpa in Finland shouting sit at home like a lunatic he's , with Tinubu's political banners on his table, (second attached picture),this should tell you who he is working for...

Obi's stronghold must stand Gidigba!!!!

This matter tie wrapper

Dsalvo:
Bro, I accept the title. When Emefiele inevitably faces his 'trials' in the near future, for putting literally the entire Nigeria in severe pain, I will resurrect this thread to mock myopically clannish elements like you and your IPOBian brothers.

You bigots rush to cannonize your fellow Igbo in Emefiele, who is causing total chaos and misery everywhere, because you think he is thwarting Tinubu.

Yet you forget he is the only stooge, about to become totally unprotected in the next few months, who will be dealt with mercilessly after Buhari is succeeded by Tinubu.

The saying "act in hast and repent at leisure" was coined, as history has shown us, for the Igbo man but I would replace the word act with brag or misbehave.

Succeeded by Tinubu ?

So you sef belive Tinubu go win ?.

Chai!!
