Lawless county

He lawyers just wan chop he money. They knew the truth.

Let's our stands determine who lead us and not the 100m and so on forms. GEJ should respect himself and Nigeria as an international stakeholder. Only if this 100m is meant for ASUU.

This guy should be kicked out of office Walahi

It shows the level of decadence at its peak, we find ourselves in this country,

Good for him Ole Thief Barao

Democracy is working

No body is above laws and if the law can also bring all the apc government from the presidency to the local government because all of them are evil and criminals whether igbo hausa or fulani or yoruba no tribalism

We're not surprised!!!

Emefiele and them are in the same couch

There was a country really.

That's right. How can central bank governor still in office want to contest. It means our electorial materials at CBN is no longer safe

No cc k

cenbank Emefiele is not only incompetent but also very shameless. On his watch, NGN has lost so much value with inflation going unchecked yet, he has the temerity to defend a bid that was graciously given to him. What a rubbish person

Who we offended in this country

Nice one

Pitiable

Shame is now scarce in this country oooo🤣😂😂

This man is a clown he wants to blow up their little secrets with his Boss. Any accountant that will want succeed his employer raises a lot of questions.

If as colleagues we are all stealing from our employer, who will report the other? Time changes everything. May our electoral process be sanitised enough to reflect the will of the people. Amen.

He should know that's not possible. If u are a public office holder and wanted to context in an election, u have to resign from ur post then continue with ir ambition. This man na big thief so if he did not win the primary election, he will continue with his job

We are also waiting for INEC chairman to join the presidential race 🤣🤣🤣

Emefiele, they set this trap and you fell for it, have you forgotten Walter Onoghen, Kemi Adeosun and Obono Obla how they were remove from office with this same setup.

Wait this man went to court to ask the court to grant him stay to contest for office from office? 😂 😂 😂 😂 Our cruise too much abeg! 😂

This Country is a Joke, to imagine this Guy has the mind to goto court is absurd. When will the Youths rise and take back their country from this old Vipers 😡😡

Share Nigeria

.

CBN governor no get shame at all

😃😃🤣😃

That is where Emefi will know that there is an impartial God of Justice on the side of Nigerians. He lied against farmers and thought that he can buy his way at the Court but he failed. He shall continue to fail until he retires.

Can someone tell these people ( appointees in PMB regime) to toll the part of honour

PETEROBIFORPRESIDENT or YULEDOCHIEFORPRESIDENT Give us Peter Obi or Yul Edochie

His right to pick a form an contest as a citizen of this country , but he must resign immediately an also render accurate account of his stewardship this many years with CBN

Going to the court is an insult to the whole country in the first place. Emefele is a disgrace, he should do the right thing and just resign.

Oga just commot 4 that office and parsue president office

Oga are you getting your money back or is it no refund of money after payment.

T⁵su

Zoo gutter News

By now a serious president should have fired GodwinIEmefiele. The joke is on the NGRPresident

He is a greedy man

mrmacaronii this is how it should be...not lamentations!

Someone who has failed as a CBN Governor is still pressing for right to contest while in office. What a country! See how they have ridicule the office of the President of my country with pride.

This man is so insane to think whatever his in mind right hmmm he won't believe what will befall him soon he has forgetton that FG like using some as scape goat they finally found the one for 2023

CBN GOVERNOR get mind..oo.see as hungry dey catch us for dis country naihim him wan still sleep on top of our moni go run for presido.Dis man wicked chaii😭😭😭

Someone who has not been able to rescue the drowning currency wants to be President of the country! Are we dumb? Some said nuisance bought form for him as proxy. Shame on our collective memory

intentionally removed AGF from the story. Gutter journalism.

He knows that he can't win but he just want his name to be in the presidential candidate...😂😂😂😂

So what will happen to the 100 million Naira that the farmers paid for him?

Big wahala 🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️🚶‍♂️

That man must be frustrated by now!

His boys will start work soon

God save Nigeria.

Omo this Emefiele get mouth sha

In 2016 $1=N258, in 2022 $1=N580 Under Emefiele and he had the guts to declare for presidency. Emefiele is worse than Nigeria economy

What is left in this govt is for the Chief Justice Nigeria to pick APC form and declare interest to run for president while in office as CJN. Once that happens,........

Democracy in Action, Status quo must be subjected to test from-time-to-time.... 9jaWeHailThee GoodFollowers2BetterLeaders

We too like joke in this country

Why Is't that he's urgently running for president? Something is wrong somewhere cos you don't trust Nigeria politicians

He thinks with his supporter that anything can goes in Nigeria, may God deliver this country

What a country!

Mr Godwin no know say Thesame APC he's working for are thesame APC that would drink odogwo bitters and eat tigernuts before doggying his an*$

So this guy thought he was going to win ? His lawyers should have advised him better .

Why are they scared to resign and focus on their ambitions. From Malami, Ameachi, Ngige to Emefiele and the rest. This impunity from all these people ought to have been stopped by the president.

CCSoludo would have been an ex-president if he use his post well.

He should resign his position

He is trying to play a smart one... He knows he won't win, but just wanna try his luck incase he wins. And if he lost he still has his position at CBN waiting for him. It's the disrespect and audacity for me

JoyceOnyemuwa

There should be a heavy protest to force this man to resign. I forgot that they always keel protesters.

Imagine how stupid this one is. Who would have thought something like this will happen under the 'reformed democrat?' Baba MBuhari you failed.

I said it this morning replying to a post.

And he's not getting any refund for the 100M. Mefi, onye eri kà agbara 🤣😁

A serious president would have ordered no entrance into CBN for him as at this morning. but we all know Buhari na rubbish man

Now that court rejects his request to contest while retaining his position as central bank governor, Nigerians will now pay dearly for the loot 💰 that will come with it. A date for a Referendum still remains the only solution to nigeria problems.

Why do I feel what I read is different from this headline?

INEC Sensitive Materials are kept in CBN night before the election, and we have an APC Member as CBN Governor Nigeria is Finished

Abeg make explain in simpler term oooo

MBuhari give this guy his sack letter abeg 🙂🙏🏾

Can you imagine the effrontery? APC came prepared with there change agenda..

This shouldn't be a breaking news ...cos we suppose to know the answer to his request assuming 🇳🇬 is good country

I thought he was acting like he ain't interested in running for president?! Nigeria pass Netflix..

This matter go reach Supreme Court within the week.

Thank God ooo, because this one is worse than present government.

As it should..... He should give up one to chase one what an arrant nonsense. He's controlling the federation like is his home affairs.......

He should be arrested self, he has alot to tell nigerians

Good!
