This issue is in the purview of the Executive. The work of the supreme Court in this case would have to be to determine whose job it is to provide the currency in circulation. They just have to say it is the work of the federal government or that of the state or even both, that and their work finishes not issuing orders. If what the President is doing is unconstitutional the Legislature work comes in they have to give the President Notice of impeachment following the whole constitutional guidelines. The supreme Court is trying to usurp the powers of the executive indirectly by using unnecessary court order. But Buhari woke up one day and with impunity sack the CJN so it is the seed he sow that is germinating and spreading |

Thank you Sir/Ma, Maybe I'm just impatient with all these cos I have a background in the sciences. 😃😃 I mean, I expected that some facts, like these (the powers of the tiers of government) should so clear and indisputable. Calibrator: |

JASONjnr: In which of your elementary school were you taught that "the executive arms of government leads other arms of government"? Can you show me where it is stated in the constitution? Which law in Nigeria states that "The president holds the last order in the country and not the other arms of government"? Where did you get this from: "What the executive order does is that, it gives the president in recent times, the ability to churn out Executive Orders in the form of 'laws seeking to regulate the activities of the other arms of government." Who told you that the president can regulate the other arms of govt? Where is it in the constitution? You claim that "By appointment the heads of other arms of government, it means the president is paramount to other authorities". Is that what the constitution says? Which arms of govt does the president appoints heads? When the chief justice of the federation swears in the president, what does that mean? How does the president appointing judges into the supreme court automatically mean that the president isn't subject to an order given by the court? Can you show me where it is in the constitution? 1 Like |

chiefolododo: Offpoint. Kindly answer my questions one after the other 1. Which veto power does the president have and how is it related to presidential address? 2 How does everything you said now automatically mean that a presidential address supercedes a court order? 3. If you say that an order given by the president isn't law, how then does it supercede a court order? 1 Like |

Also, the president is elected by the people, the chief justice only swears in the president as his mandate.... Swearing in the president doesn't confer any authority on the governing body of the court ... |

Odibembem:You are totally wrong. In the case of Governance, the work of the courts even the supreme Court is to interpret the law not issuing order. The supreme in it's name does not in any way mean that it supercedes the Executive. The supreme in it's name have to do with the courts. It means whatever ruling or what ever case it has entered no other court has mouth there again. It is not about superseding everything in the country. The Trump Executive orders the supreme Court quashed must be the one they determined it is unconstitutional. In this scenario the Supreme Court work is just to determine whose job is it to determine the currency in use and there their work stops. They are trying to usurp the executive powers by using court order to wield executive powers. Just know this have to do with the powers of each arm of government 2 Likes |

BluntCrazeMan: An Order of a Court and a Judgement is the same! An Order is a Judgement. Here you see what I have always said here which is legal is not Law. https://www.nairaland.com/7004609/re-lawyers-not-deceit-there Thus, this is rubbish which legal creates because in legal man is the law so the problem is which man, is it the president or judge or governor or General this ? |

unitysheart: The president can enforce his executive order and can also retract from it. The executive order to give the local government administration a financial autonomy was carefully looked into and was retracted. If it was to hold, the governors wouldn't stop it. It wasn't the court who made Buhari to retract from it. And you that understand what you wrote, but you don't have any sense of the laws governing you, what does that make you? |

AfricanColumbus: You are ignorant. The supreme court is constitutionally empowered to determine what is legal and illegal. It determines disputes including between state and federal governments. Even the federal high court can issue an order and will be binding on federal government until vacated on appeal. Supreme Court is the highest court.. the constitution is the supreme law from which even the president derives his powers. Any order by the supreme court is binding on the federal government.. be it interim interlocutory or substantive... that is what is known as the rule of law which is an essential feature of any democracy 3 Likes |

In line with democratic principles, three arms of government check and balance each other powers and authority to avoid one of them acquiring absolute powers. Supreme court is a party that settles a dispute between State and federal govt. According to sec 232 of 1999 constitution of federal republic of nigeria as amended. Already some state govts have relied upon this section and sued FG over poor implementation of naira redesign policy. Presidential address on same matter knowing fully well that the matter is still in court can be seen as contempt of court. But that is not what we re talking. To answer your questions, yes supreme court verdict can override presidential order or address. My reasons is where supreme court verdict can override or give interpretation of provisions of the constitution for example Peter Obi case asking court to interpret the tenure of a State Governor What the supreme court will do is to interpret the CBN act and 1999 constitution regarding to issuance of currency to determine whether the CBN or president follow the implementation in line with the laws. 5 Likes |
