Owologbo: Which madness? If it's CBN that destroyed these cash, it's within their power to do so. What do you think happens to cash audited dirty? The CBN carried out naira redesign policy, what do you expect to happen to the old notes?
ganisucks: Lies. CBN burnt the old notes. They didn't leave them in a field for passers-by to discover. If anything, this is money dumped by politicians. A ridiculous propaganda skit by the ruling party.
Then watch the video. This huge sum can only come from CBN.
I am of the opinion that Buhari, Malami and Emefiele will benefit more in this policy summersault, reason being that;
The trio may tell Nigerians that they have burnt/destroyed say 3trillion Worth of the old naira notes, while to they didn't do so, they will share the money.
Kabirudeen25: Wike doesn't care about his own ethnicity talkless of others, the only thing he cares about is his greedy ambition which he tend to achieve through cunningness which is very different from "smart" as many think he is. But on Saturday we will show him that we are not stupid.
If Wike's definition of Upland and Riverine Power rotation, is rotation of power between people who speaks same or similar dialects, that's injustice
Batman01: more reason why he should be rejected by Rivers people. Jaja of opobo was a cutthroat slave merchant in the 19th Century, who monopolized the slave trade for his personal wealth. He was not a hero, he was a demon.
Should we take a walk down your family linage, it's as dirty as dirts.
Social life Mr Fubara outwardly is reserved but remains socially connected to every segment of society. He belongs to several social organisations, including his alma maters both at the tertiary and secondary levels. He is highly regarded for his humanity, respect for elders and, above all, his altruism. He is also generally acknowledged for the enormous respect he has for Rivers elders and frontline leaders, irrespective of their political leanings.
This was even before his emergence as the gubernatorial flag-bearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Inclusive of his personal philanthropic efforts, his invaluable service to the community grew from earlier volunteer work to subsequently attracting government projects to, and directing personal efforts at the development of Opobo Kingdom and the entire local government area.
In recognition of his efforts, he was conferred with the prestigious traditional title of Amaopusenibo of Opobo Kingdom. He has also been assiduously working with local outreach groups, among them SWITCH-ON, Caregivers Humanitarian Outreach, on poverty alleviation, skills acquisition, scholarships and other empowerment programmes. This has, in the past three years, spurred empowerment deliverables through which many underprivileged people have gained means of livelihood.
After a pioneer programme in 2019 and palliative efforts during the COVID-19 pandemic, SWITCH-ON launched a special programme for women in October 2021 tagged Women Empowerment Programme. This was followed in July 2022 by the implementation of the Men Empowerment Programme that reached over 430 beneficiaries. Involvement in politics Mr Fubara’s decade-long involvement in politics has essentially been that of a staunch democrat who believes in the power of the people. This explains his unrelenting focus on the grassroots.
He is a strong member of the PDP in Rivers State.
Mr Fubara has undergone mentorship with the Governor of Rivers State, Nyesom Wike and other great Rivers leaders. At one time when some party leaders in his Opobo/Nkoro Local Government Area deserted the PDP, he picked up the mantle and rebuilt it, eventually becoming the party leader in the area.
His leadership brought cohesion and unity and strengthened the party in Opobo/Nkoro Local Government Area.
He has taken his deep party loyalty and zeal across the state, following his emergence as the governorship candidate of the party for the 2023 general elections. This has served in bringing back and uniting several party heavyweights both in his local government area and across the state.
A devoted Christian, Fubara is of the Anglican faith, fortuitously growing up with the Anglican Church in Opobo Town just a few meters from his home.
In 2020, he was bestowed with the prestigious Knight of Saint Christopher (KSC) order of the Anglican Communion of Nigeria by the Evo Diocese of the Anglican Communion in recognition of his service to humanity and the Communion. He is also a sponsor and Patron of the Women Prayer Network in Opobo Town dedicated to supplicating for peace and progress of the town and its people.
Mr Fubara is married to Valerie Fubara. They are blessed with three children.

A fake soldier who identified himself as Chibueze Asogwa, from Nsukka local government area of Enugu state, has been arrested by the men of Nigerian military.
Mr. Chibueze who's narration of where he's serving, the company he trained and his platoon under the Nigerian Army, isn't adding up, was caught with fetish items locally identified as juju.
His apparent lack of coordination in his responses shows traces of mental imbalance.
For instance When asked which company he trained, he said he trained in Ecobank. When asked his platoon, he said it's not Plateau Jos.
sageb: @Mrksquare Sobomabo should have collapse his structure into Tonye cole's camp. I wonder why Kalabaris always divide votes with numerous candidates.
StreetFight: He should come out that day and face Wike nah. Then he will understand that Nyesom Wike the wicked one is a current militant and not ex-militant like him.
I know to you, Wike must be a small God that shouldn't be told not to rig election,
