Rejoinder Over A Write-up By Tunde Salihu Castigating ASUU Due To Strike

-Abdullahi Junaidu

I accidentally met a write up circulating media castigating ASUU over the incessant strike asking them to manage the situation of no fund in the country and forfeit their demands as nothing is going properly in Nigeria, my rejoinder will be against only that point for now !

Let me call his attention, in Nigeria it is only poor masses are asked to manage the situation under the pretext of no fund but the top elites in govt position are always earmarking huge amount of money for their frivilous and greedy sentiment, he didn't ask senators or any member of National assembly to forfeit their allowances and sacrifice some percentage of their salary for managing the life of Nigerians.

Between these greedy & incompetent leaders and poor masses who deserve to forfeit their entitlement to manage the life of one another ? Everyday we are seeing looting everywhere and still govt is screaming of no fund, no fund for education but there is fund to loot. Govt top officials are enjoying their luxury lives with 100% amenities while that of masses are hijacked telling them to manage the situation of no fund.
We are seeing them distributing luxury cars and buying aspiration forms of millions.

Every year there is Budget of renovating every office in villa and National assembly, even thier furnitures and decorations, allowances for servicing their vehicles and weekly newspaper which are all frivolous & greedy expenditure considering the country situation, huge amount of money are earmarked for these, if these money could be diverted to Education sector it would be a great achievement.
Education and these frivolous office renovation which one supposed to forfeit it's own share ?
We have to think rational please.

Yes ! Strike is not the only option to solve this issue, students should also storm Abuja and block every road in a bid to pressure the govt to act urgently, this will surely yield better fruits as it is the only language Nigerian govt understands !

We still have some blockhead writers that have absurd audacity to support govt in trying to destroy education system by advising them to eliminate ASUU...
Be rest assured, if ASUU is dissolved today, education system will not last for decade, even if it does, poor people can no longer afford it as it will be very expensive and that is what Govt want. So we have to wake up and do the necessary !

#Meffy2023: A joke taken too far
Chidi Anselm Odinkalu

8 May 2022


In November 2017, it emerged that the Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, had significant interests in an off-shore company registered in Bermuda, which held an account with the UBS in London. The UBS is a multinational investment bank and financial services company with its headquarters in Basel and Zurich in Switzerland.
Disclosures released by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists in the Paradise Papers revealed that Emefiele owned 49% of Oviation Asset Management since 2009 and was a director in the company since January 2013.
According to The Guardian newspaper in London, “Oviation was part of a structure that imported two jets via the Isle of Man. The latest purchase, a $50m Gulfstream G550, arrived in November 2015. It replaced a $33m Gulfstream G450, imported in 2013.”
Fifteen months before the import of the second Gulfstream, in June 2014, Emefiele became the Governor of the CBN. In this capacity, he also leads The Mint, which prints Nigeria’s currency.

Section 9 of the CBN Act of 2007 requires of both the Governor of the Central Bank and his deputies that they “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 charitable causes as may be determined by the Board and which do not conflict with or conflict with their full-time duties.”
This prohibition places three constraints on the CBN Governor: one substantive, another procedural, and a third, ethical. Substantively, it bars him from moonlighting in any other job or vocation, whether or not remunerated. Procedurally, he needs the approval of the Board of the CBN before taking on any role outside the bank. Implied in this is an obligation of full and honest disclosure on the part of the CBN Governor. As an (additional) ethical standard, the Act precludes the CBN Governor from putting himself in a position that conflicts with his full-time duties.
As the head of a “public corporation” (which the CBN is), Emefiele, as the CBN Governor, is also subject to the Code of Conduct for senior public officers contained in the 5th Schedule to the Nigerian constitution, which imposes on him standards of conduct with reference to asset disclosures, acceptance of gifts and donations, and holding of overseas interests.

For Emefiele, it seems these standards were ornaments of convenience. Three years into his office as the CBN Governor, his interests in Oviation were still intact. Contacted by The Guardian for an explanation in November 2017, Emefiele claimed that he “gave instructions for his shares to be handed back” to his former employers, a Nigerian bank, in 2014. For a central banker, this claim shows either a tendency for the cavalier or habit of casuistry. The former puts his professionalism in question and the latter is a question of character.
On or about May 4, 2022, Emefiele was a guest of the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), in the Presidency. The following day, some characters claiming to be armed Niger Delta militants endorsed the CBN Governor for the presidential ticket of the ruling All Progressives Congress, promising to lay down their arms if the party were to hand the ticket to him. It is too soon to say whether or not these two developments which appear unrelated have anything to do with what happened next.
Putting months of speculation and hide-and-seek to rest, it emerged on May 6, 2022 that one Rice Farmers Association of Nigeria and two other shadowy organisations had purchased for Emefiele forms to run for the presidency on the ticket of the APC. His political organisation goes by the brand “#Meffy2023”. The following day, May 7, Emefiele claimed that he was awaiting “God’s Divine intervention” which he hoped to receive “in the next few days”.
Emefiele has been nothing if not consistent in his convenient attitude to rules. As the CBN Governor, he has maintained a ruinous regime of multiple exchange rates, sustaining a deliberate scheme of profitable arbitrage which is conducive to cronyism at his discretion and insider abuse. The result is this his version of “Farmers Earnestly Yearn for Emefiele”.
He has got the CBN involved in schemes and scams that almost assuredly violate Section 34 of the CBN Act; from taking over the management of the National Theatre (despite pending litigation) to making himself a willing instrument for the persecution of #EndSARS protesters. Premium Times in a February 21, 2021 editorial fears that his tenure at the CBN will be remembered for having wilfully “shredded” the guardrails in the CBN Act.
In a country where consequences follow malfeasance, Emefiele will already be in prison. In Nigeria, he longs for the presidency.

The question whether Emefiele can run for the presidential ticket of a political party while also continuing to serve as the CBN Governor is both moral and legal. Premium Times addressed the former, pointing out that “the operational and administrative autonomy granted the central bank by its enabling statute was precisely to protect the governor from political influence.”

The governor of Ondo State, himself a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and former president of the Nigerian Bar Association, Rotimi Akeredolu, puts it even more pointedly in a release issued on the same day that Emefiele collected the form to actualise his aspiration: “It is difficult to imagine that a person who occupies the exalted and sensitive office of the Governor of the CBN will be this brazen in actualising his ambition.”
A partisan politician grubbing for votes while hanging on as the CBN Governor messes with more than the statutory independence of the Bank. It is inconceivable that he can retain independence while seeking the presidency. On the same May 6, on which he collected his presidential forms, “news of Emefiele’s presidential bid sent the Naira close to a record low”, confirming that his is no ordinary ambition.
But this is, even more, a legal issue. To be sure, Emefiele, as an adult citizen of Nigeria, is entitled to run for any office he desires. Two of his predecessors have preceded him into elective politics. Clement Isong, the second Governor of the CBN from 1967 to 1975, became the first elected governor of old Cross-River State in October 1979. Chukwuma Soludo, who was the CBN Governor from 2004 to 2009, is currently serving as the governor of Anambra State, having been elected on November 6, 2021. Both Dr. Isong and Professor Soludo ran for office after the expiration of their terms.
Section 9 of the CBN Act makes it quite clear that the CBN Governor just cannot choose to run for elective office while still holding on to office. In any case, he has to first secure the approval of the CBN Board, which is not the case here. He could, of course, choose to resign in order to pursue his ambition. For this, Section 11(3) of the CBN Act requires him to give “at least three months’ notice in writing to the President of his intention to do so.”
So, Section 9 of the CBN Act precludes Emefiele from political activities and Section 11(3) requires him to give three months’ notice of resignation. As a matter of law, he should have resigned at least three months before the party presidential primary in which he is to be a contestant. The possibility that such a notice from the CBN Governor can be concealed for this long in a political season would require terminal skills in political self-immolation.
But, as with his holding in an offshore company despite being prohibited from doing so, Emefiele would wish this away as yet another inconsequential encounter with an inconvenient guardrail. The Presidency, however, is ultimately about guardrails. As Lincoln is reported to have said and many more since then have shown, it is a test of character.
In pursuit of his audacious project, Emefiele has not encountered any guardrails which he has not been willing to destroy. For those who wish to turn over to him the keys to the presidency at this time and in this manner, Governor Akeredolu’s words bear repeating: This is a joke taken too far.

In the end, it would appear that Emefiele is relaxed about having the fate of his ambition decided by a college of Nigerian judges. He carries on with the cockiness of a man who has assured himself that, as the boss of The Mint, he can issue enough notes to buy any number of judges on his march to whatever he fancies. If he ultimately suffers a bloody nose, it’ll be just desserts for a man who clearly believes everything can be bought and sold.
