BREAKING: Court Refuses Emefiele’s Request To Restrain INEC, AGF Over Presidential Ambition
A Federal High Court in Abuja has refused the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele’s request to restrain the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) Abubakar Malami preventing him from his Presidential Ambition.

The CBN Governor on Monday told the Court in Abuja that he can run for the post of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria without vacating his position as the CBN Governor.

The CBN Governor through his Counsel, Mike Ozekhome, told the court that Section 84 ((12) of the Electoral Act as amended, 2022 does not affect him, being a public servant and not a political appointee.

The court in its ruling, however, summonsed INEC, and AGF to appear before it on May 12, to show cause on why status quo antebellum, should not be granted to the CBN Governor.

Asides being monumentally incompetent,one thing Buhari has done over his fated 8year tenure is to completely erase the barrier between what is wrong and right in Nigeria.
There is no longer any sense of decency,honesty and public officials adhering to any norm of decency,honesty and accountability.
Imagine a central bank governor wanting to remain as head of the CBN while also contesting for the presidency!
That is how horrible Buhari has turned all institutions.Individuals carry out acts based on simply what they want,not on commonsense,the legality or the justice of it.They don't even bother about the effects of their s tupid actions on the institutions they lead,service or the nation.
Pity.

It seems the guy has a lot to cover up as CBN Gov.

This desperation is extreme.
