Naira Swap: Kaduna Files Contempt Of Court Suit Against FG Over Non-Compliance by fergie001: 12:38pm On Feb 15, 2023
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Abdulhakeem Mustapha, representing Kaduna State at the ongoing currency policy suit filed against the Federal Government at the Supreme Court by Kaduna, Kogi and Zamfara states has further filed a contempt of court suit against the Government.

In the matter presided over by Justice Inyang Okoro, Mustapha drew the panel’s attention to the Federal Government’s alleged flouting of the order of the court last week by the non-compliance to the extension of the use of the old naira notes.

However, Kanu Agabi who represents the Federal Government objected, arguing that the claim is based on “rumours out there.”

The panel said the issue cannot be attended to immediately until all the processes are filed and served.

But Mustapha insisted that the Federal Government is acting in executive recklessness by going ahead to ignore the order.

He, therefore, insisted that the extension should subsist.

In its response, the panel advised that the processes are filed and served on Friday and replies should be given on Monday to enable a hearing on Wednesday.

Moreso, Emmanuel Ukala (SAN) sought to move a separate application by the Rivers State Government.

Similarly, counsel to the Kano State Government, Sunusi Musa (SAN) sought to move their separate motion challenging the powers of the Federal Government to unilaterally impose the currency policy on citizens of the state without the approval of the FEC and Council of State.

But Justice Okoro advised both Rivers and Kano to consolidate their suits with the other already existing suits.

The panel fixed all the suits for hearing on Wednesday, February 20.

Unfortunately, our court system is a toothless dog when it comes to dealing with the federal government.

Buhari is the architect of this currency swap problem and it is causing the same untold hardship today that it caused in 1984 when people were committing suicide because of it and when a high ranking minister was sacked for simply begging Buhari not to go ahead with the policy.

Buhari is notorious for being a poor planner and for being extremely incompetent at executing policies.

We saw it with his poor implementation of the National Identification Number system where millions of Nigerians were besieging registration centres

We saw it with his poor implementation of the BVN where millions of Nigerians were sleeping in banking halls to get their BVN numbers.

We saw it with his poor implementation of SIM card registration where millions of Nigerians scrambled to save their lines from being blocked.


And now we're watching his utter incompetence unfold with the poor implementation of a completely unnecessary currency swap just a few weeks to a general election.

We haven't even mentioned the crippling fuel scarcity which is happening under his watch as a self appointed minister of petroleum. Let's see how APC goons will blame Emefiele for that as well.

Mind you, I'm not saying Emefiele is a Saint. Personally I keep wandering why he doesn't resign honourably. It's very possible Buhari is making it worth his while if you know what I mean😏

But if he was a rogue element like people are accusing him of being, then why hasn't Buhari sacked him? Buhari sacked Lawal Daura as head of the DSS and he sacked Ibrahim Lamorde and Ibrahim Magu as chairmen of the EFCC.

So why is Emefiele still keeping his job if he is implementing a different policy from what Aso Rock wants? If you have a working brain and you're not an APC member, I'm sure you know the answer to this question.

Tinubu is the only one that has been talking against this policy among the leading candidates.


If you don't want your old notes to expire, Vote Tinubu

Tinubu will reverse the policy as soon as he's declared.

It is now a fight between the ruling APC and the presidency-seeking APC. Suddenly El-Rufai is only concerned about currency swap despite all the ills of governance the APC have inflicted upon Nigeria?

They watched and enjoyed Buhari disobeyed many court orders in the time past. Now let watch how their appeal against the contempt of court orders will go. Let see who wins between the FG and Kaduna State Government.Ndi ala.

Corruption fighting back

Only Obi can face these corrupt politicians and cabals and dismantle them, he's equal to the task, he has dealt with them before at State level, he will do it again as the President.

Nigerians should endure for 2weeks and enjoy for 8years

President Obi is coming...he will fix it all.

People should learn to make transactions with bank transfer and debit cards Visa and master card issued by banks

Inec should learn to pay corpers and bus drivers with bank transfer

Cash should be severely limited to ensure that kidnappers and terrorists do not get financing for their evil activities

Cash should be limited to ensure everyone pays taxes

People who work in formal sector should not be the one paying income tax via PAYE, every business man should be paying taxes and this can only be verified via electronic banking

Anybody trying to go back to using huge amounts of cash is evil and wishes to impoverish others

As a govt it's very irresponsible to finance budgets with huge deficit and not to mop up the inflation created via a responsible taxation and fiscal policy

As a central bank it is criminal to print billions of cash notes not backed by dollars and an appropriate policy rate leading to exchange rate driven inflation and general impoverishment and loss of purchasing power of people

This one same Kaduna Governor that will never obey court orders or quickly respond to cries of Southern Kanuna people when being massacred?

We can see there is capacity to act fast but only when it is a matter of selfish interest.
