Naira Redesign: We’re Waiting For Supreme Court Judgement, Kogi Govt Insists by Gemid94(op): 7:34pm On Feb 16, 2023
Kogi State Government has reiterated its stance on the suit it filed alongside its counterparts, Zamfara and Kaduna against the Federal Government and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on the cashless policy.

TRIBUNE ONLINE earlier reported President Muhammadu Buhari had directed the CBN to allow only the old N200 to remain legal tender until April 10, 2023, in order to improve currency circulation in the country and ease pains experienced by Nigerians due to the challenges posed by the policy.

“I have given approval to the CBN that the old N200 bank notes be released back into circulation and that it should also be allowed to circulate as legal tender with the new N200, N500, and N1000 banknotes for 60 days from Feb. 10, 2023 to April 10 2023,” Buhari was quoted as saying.

But reacting, in an interview with TVC on Thursday, Kogi Commissioner of Information, Kingsley Fanwo said they are reviewing the situation.

“We all listened to what Mr President has said today. We are reviewing the situation. There are no clear lines of action right now. As we are also aware the case is before the Supreme Court and they will resume hearing February 22nd.

“We are very confident that the Supreme Court will go ahead with the case and whatever decision they arrived at, we are confident that we have a President that trolls the line of constitutionalism and believes in the rule of law.”

It is not not within the Supreme Court jurisdiction to determine what is a Legal tender in Nigeria.

Really? You people should stop giving fake hope to the people. Most people took to the streets because they were misled through fake hope of this nature. Bihari body language shows that he has taken his final decision and stand. My opinion is that he feels the court is being unnecessarily influenced against him which he is not willing to give in to. Know this and save yourself of unnecessary stress.

This clown and mistake of a governors is deceiving his people. I hope the masses in Kogi don't listen to him, else their money will become toilet paper. Imagine this small boy of yesterday who became governor in a weird way challenging his betters and superiors. E be like say this one never know wetin dem don cook keep for am.

The rally for Taraba will be rescheduled tommorow due to the Harmattan weather. Even parts of Lagos experienced harmattan today
APC Governors in the North are now scared to campaign against Atiku in the North in order not lose lose their senatorial Election or Governorship election.
The Atiku momentum is building massively everyday in the North everyday ....call anybody residing in the North to ascertain
Expect the unexpected political realignment next week
Atiku has won this election... Quote me

Some of our governors are just plain thieves and stupid.

Of what use is your stupid Supreme court that only base their judgement on technicality instead of justice?

Instead of them to be the hope of justice, they are now the hope to the highest bidder like Lawan, Akpabio and other thieves!

Make thunder fire them and their useless judgement.

My advice to everyone, don't follow your state governors, even if you want to hold the old notes, hold only what you can forgo at any given time, try and look for ways to do online transactions more till these policy thing is over.

Buhari does not send anybody, we know his track record in doing that

All these wahala would have been avoided if they had implemented secret balloting during the primaries which would have eliminated money politics and produced more credible candidates.
