Any trusted source?


In as much I would want this to be true,does the President have the power to sack a CBN governor?


We wait!
Buhari can’t sack the CBN governor. He doesn’t have such powers.

It’s fake news

President Muhammadu has sacked the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, an unconfirmed report has revealed.

Godwin Emefiele was engulfed in controversies after expressing genuine interest in becoming the next president of Nigeria and does not wish to resign his position before contesting.

After several outcry by the public, calling for his resignation shortly after purchasing the N100m form of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Emefiele approached a Federal High Court in Abuja to prevent the country’s electoral body INEC from disqualifying him.

Fake news

Buhari cannot unilaterally sack Emefiele.

It would involve the 2/3 majority votes of the National Assembly.

Make una dey get sense for this country.

Ekweremadu down

Abaribe down too. Nigerians can see that Igbos don’t joke with justice. As we like Abaribe reach, we didn’t waste a second to call him out when he derailed. There’s not a single person supporting him.

We don’t play baba sope politics in the land of the rising Sun.

We are people who value justice, equity and fairness. And no man, no matter how highly placed, will be allowed to overreach himself at the detriment of others, no matter how downtrodden they are.

That’s what separates us from the people of Southwest and their baba Sope politics where they are tied to Tinubu’s apron and he can continue to choose a governor from same region and they continue to vote for whichever idiot he brings.

“Egbe bere ka ugo bere”. that’s always our guiding principle in all our dealings. And not the survival of the fittest or victory for the moneybags kind of politics.

Ekweremadu thought he could fight all the political juggernauts in Enugu. Who born am?

Let him go and waste his money in APGA.

This is somebody that if he could exercise patience for another 8 years, no man born of a woman in Enugu PDP will challenge him for the party ticket. But these guys are simply greedy.

Politics › Re: 2023: General Abubakar Kicks Against Zoning, Defends 1999 Constitution by Penguin2:
He’s just an old gworo-chewing foolish Atiku supporter.

These are the people you’d expect to be wise and put Nigeria first.

But I think the adage that “wisdom comes with old age” might be false.

So, despite the restiveness in the East, the clamour for equity, justice and fairness, and for power to rotate to the south even if it won’t be to the East as to give every part of this country a sense of belonging as co-participants in the Nigerian project, this senile old man is talking about capacity.

You see the reasoning of these northerners? They are the same from old to young.

But I blame Tinubu for all of this nonsense. The south was on its way to teaching the north their greatest lesson in 2015 until Tinubu teamed up with those vagabonds to thwart it.

I’m happy he’s getting a dose of regret of that action and will die with an unfulfilled ambition like Awolowo and Abiola before him.

Ndi ala!

Atiku na thief he won't do shit, he has spent so much money in trying to become president of this country since 1993 and he will recoup everything if he becomes president.

Tradermoni wasn't meant to DEFEAT POVERTY but to strengthen the capital of beneficiary traders. Nobody becomes wealthy on such handouts.
And you believe 10k strengthened the capital of benefiting traders?

Like, if I give you 10k naira now, it would strengthen your capital or your savings towards starting your own business?

Wetin market women wan use 10k buy so they can make profit? 10k is not even enough to get them 10litres of red oil.

The day I carry 8k say make I patronise one old woman for my street. She dey sell foodstuff. Her shop is just two tables and one big umbrella. I come dey think say, her shop go empty after spending my huge 8k.

My 8K no even shake the two tables there. It was that day I realized those two tables worth goods over 200k.
You can imagine…

That’s what Peter Obi keeps trying to make them understand but illiteracy or outright foolishness would not allow them admit it.

You can take someone out of poverty by giving him/her Tradermoni or handouts of such kind. The only way to help anyone defeat poverty is by training them in business and giving them a seed capital for business that would grow in time and end up making them employers of labour.

SMEs.

That’s what has always been on Peter Obi’s lips.

But zombies are of the opinion that 10k Tradermoni is enough capital to turn people millionaires.

Frigga13:
Let’s be honest

Nigeria won’t give Obi ticket ... even if he decamps to another party

Obi need a leverage to be accepted nation wide especially in the core North

Nigeria no begin and end in igboland just as e no begin and end in yorubaland

You southerners always make elections like say Na only Una Dey vote and decide .. forgetting the mainstream, National that involves over 400 hundred ethnicities .. over 250 of them in the North .. with large voting population. That decides Nigerian presidential votes ... even if Na rig votes .. all party rigs ..

Nigeria President must be a widely accepted candinate ..
For get emotions and sentiments ..

Obi was never interested in presidency but was pushed in for a project .. by same people Una Dey abuse upandan

Politcs is boy on nairaland .. nairaland Na assumptions dreams and hallucinations..

Get down to reality and understand Nigeria politics

Tinubu spend 95% of his campaign in the North
That’s a serious politician .. and still might not get

Gej was a vice before, then acting .. them constested in the office of President.. he can’t lose .. that’s why he won..

Ohaneze statement that igbos should not accept Vice is igbos shooting themselves

How Ohaneze wan take manufacture votes in the north and south that will give igboman President ?

Igbos don’t vote ..or you think Nigerian politcs is based on sentiment ?

You people will refer to 99’
Forgetting the history that threw up 98/99’ settings

The thing is that igbos are bussiness people and not politicians
And they don’t think like politician , the ones that understands Nigeria politics are called sabos.. and Hausa made ..

Nigeria no begin and end in igboland .. is a very big country..

And many ethnicities have reservations on igbos

And daily igbos keep proving them right ..
And what must obi do to be accepted in the north?

Convert to Islam?

Donate hundreds of millions to IDPs?

Go and wash plate at Sultan of Sokoto’s palace?

What gave you people the impression that for any southerner to get anything in this country he must first come to bow to the north?
