The President’s associates led by Mamman Daura, a nephew and close confidant of the President and Nasir El-Rufai, governor of Kaduna State were identified as standing strongly behind the CBN governor.

God bless Irabor. He can't sit back and watch Northerners used by Bobo Chicago humiliate his fellow Igbo ika brother from same state.


Just because he implemented policies to curb electoral malpractice and evil , they want to take him out.


It won't work

The Chief of Defence Staff, Gen Lucky Irabor, on Monday deployed military personnel and intelligence officers to ensure the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, who returned to the country from the United Kingdom was not arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS), SaharaReporters has learnt.

SaharaReporters on Tuesday gathered from top sources that Emefiele, who was under the DSS radar for several weeks following the investigation of several allegations against him, including corruption and terrorism financing, was shielded by the military personnel provided by the CDS office in Abuja.

SaharaReporters on Monday reported that the CBN governor headed to his office with massive security, specifically military protection, following his return to the country.

“Apparently the Chief of Defence Staff was the one that aided Emefiele to defy the DSS upon arrival. Irabor deployed the military police and intelligence to ensure Emefiele was not arrested,” one of the sources revealed on Tuesday morning.

Sources at the CBN had told SaharaReporters that the security personnel that accompanied Emefiele to the bank were larger than that of Nigeria's president, Muhammadu Buhari.

“Emefiele has returned to Nigeria. He went to the CBN with massive security. He was given military protection. His security is bigger than that of the President," one of the sources had said in a terse message to SaharaReporters.

SaharaReporters last Thursday reported that the apex bank boss was still abroad, and afraid to set foot in Nigeria for fear of being arrested and detained by the secret police.

One of the sources had noted that the secret police were on alert and on the lookout for Emefiele. According to the source, the DSS would arrest Emefiele regardless of his antics and the recent court ruling.

Emefiele was part of President Muhammadu Buhari’s entourage to the US-Africa Leaders’ Summit in Washington DC between December 13 and 15, 2022.

While Buhari returned to Abuja a day after the summit, the CBN governor deliberately decided to delay his return to Nigeria.

Multiple sources last Friday told SaharaReporters some associates of President Muhammadu Buhari were leading the fight to stop the DSS from arresting Emefiele.

The President’s associates led by Mamman Daura, a nephew and close confidant of the President and Nasir El-Rufai, governor of Kaduna State were identified as standing strongly behind the CBN governor.


In contravention of the CBN Act, Emefiele in 2021 joined the ruling All Progressives Congress.

The action is against Section 9 of the CBN Act, 2007, which states: “The Governor and the Deputy Governors shall devote the whole of their time to the service of the bank and while holding office shall not engage in any full or part-time employment or vocation whether remunerated or not except such personal or charitable causes as may be determined by the Board and which do not conflict with or detract from their full-time duties.”

That you said Ukwuani does not speak Igbo has just proven that you are in Ogbomoso.

Because even the name, Ukwuani is Igbo. It is a combination of 2 Igbo words “ukwu” (leg) and “ani” (land”, which can better be translated to mean “lower land”.

Again, Ukwuani musicians sing and distribute their songs all over Igboland and every Igbo man understands what they are singing. One of such songs is the popular “Anu Nwobi N’egbu Azu” which is a very popular song in all Igboid territories in Nigeria and world over.

Why are you guys like this?

With the exception of Asaba and Ogwashi, all others in your list above do not accept the Igbo identity despite speaking Igboid dialets. So they are not Igbos. you should allow groups to define their identity, not making the choice for them.
