HURIWA Demands Emefiele, Malami’s Arrest Over Naira Redesign Crisis by Sundaland(op): 6:28am On Mar 13, 2023
Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA) on Sunday demanded the immediate arrest of the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, and the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami, over their roles in the crisis trailing the redesign of naira notes.

The duo had come under severe criticism from Nigerians over the Federal Government's disregard for the Supreme Court ruling on the redesign of the N200, N500, and N1000 notes

The apex bank on March 3 extended the validity of the old naira notes till December 31.

However, the silence of the federal government and Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) on the ruling 10 days after it was delivered has provoked anger in the land with many still reluctant to accept the old banknotes.

The Ekiti and Kogi States governments last week threatened to prosecute individuals and businesses rejecting the old naira notes in the states.In a statement issued by its National Coordinator, Emmanuel Onwubiko, HURIWA described the AGF and CBN governor's refusal to comply with the Supreme Court's judgement as an assault on Nigerians.

The statement read: The flagrant disobedience and arrogance of the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele; and the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami after the Supreme Court order is condemnable and treasonable.

No individual is greater than the Nigerian State and those who think they are should be met with resistance and the punishment that they deserve. For Section 37 of the Criminal Code Act in Nigeria provided that any person who levies war against the State, in order to intimidate or overawe the state (here being Nigeria) is guilty of treason, and is liable to the punishment of death.

Now that cash had dried up in most banks across the country due to what senior bankers described as the inability of the CBN to supply them with new naira notes, protests have started to break up in the country. This can threaten the security of the entire nation and the Department of State Services should not fold its arms and watch while Malami and Emefiele plunge Nigeria into chaos and untold hardship

HURIWA demand the arrest of the CBN governor, the AGF Malami, and their trial for treason for failing to comply with the judgment of the highest court in Nigeria. HURIWA also urged President Muhammadu Buhari to be democratic and obey the Supreme Court because the apex court on March 3 also pronounced that the February 16, 2023 declaration by the President is dictatorial.

Re: HURIWA Demands Emefiele, Malami’s Arrest Over Naira Redesign Crisis by Sundaland(op):
People, especially those in authority, really need to be held accountable for their certain actions or inactions, guided or misguided policies that affect others badly no matter how highly they are connected. Millions have suffered so much over this preventable Naira crisis. Perhaps, some even lost their lives because of this mess.

It is a very funny thing, considering how everyone now unanimously accepted that the policy's implementation is bad. Just before the election they insisted it was for the good of the country, but now, everyone everywhere keep complaining. I then realized that it was their hate for BAT that made them accept the policy in the first place, they don't mind its adverse effect on themselves as long as it's a policy against Asíwájú.

If not for the Supreme Court, I would have said we should stick with the new money policy but that would be contempt.

Emefiewele grin grin grin grin your days are numbered, Asíwájú go deal with you hen, in your next life, you will learn to pick your fight.

How over 200million people will suffer (and some literally die) because of one man's incompetence will always amaze me.

And that man is still moving about freely laughing and drinking sophisticated tea

As long as Ariwoola's cash and carry judgement persists, the Supreme court judgements will be nothing more than a mere suggestion.

I just pray Obi's legal sojourn would end in the tribunal in victory.

I believe that in one of his trips, Buhari made agreement with the new world order antichrist power to turn Nigeria to an experimental ground to see what it will be like when you take away the people's ability to buy and sell.

So this is how Emeifiele wanted to rule Nigeria as president or is he still pained by the outcome of the primaries. Rubbish

I’ve been saying that Emeifele be arrested.
The pains my parents go through to get cash in my home town is sickening. I’ve resorted to sending them cash from Lagos via weigh-bill. I can just understand why Emeifele has to be this monstrous

All the ipobian and Obidient youths rejoicing over Emefiele Policy because it will affect Tinubu, hope you are happy now. Funniest part is that most of them have this old notes too and they don't know how to spend it. But their inbuilt hatred for Tulumbu will not make them see reason. Shame on you all..

We told you then but you attacked us Abeg nobody should complain especially the Obidients, we die here together 🤣🤣🤣
