A high court sitting in Kwale, Delta State has ordered the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC to refrain from blocking Godwin Emefiele, the bank's governor from seeking an elective post.

It was gathered on Friday that the court granted the order restraining the bank and INEC from making moves to stop Emefiele's 2023 Presidential bid.

The application was secretly filed on May 5th and judgment was granted on Thursday May 12th. According to Punch, the Judgement delivered by Presiding Justice, DC Maidoh read in part;

"The court upon reading through the motion papers and hearing C.N. Ofiah Esq. for the claimants/applicants ordered as follows: I have read the processes in this suit, the applicant has complied with order 39 of our rules."

"Applicants also deposed to an affidavit of urgency. From the processes before this court, I find that the said application at this stage has merit pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice."

"In the circumstances, in line with order 39 rule 3 of our rules, this motion is hereby granted. The motion on notice is accordingly adjourned to 25/5/2022 for hearing."

APC is using emefiele to distract Nigerians because they're up to something.
He doesn't even stand a chance to win the least primaries so why the fuss?

Everyone should watch out.

We are yet to see Sanusi's poster oo as Nigeria media are forcing the presidency on some selected people.

The razor gazette who broke the news of Emefiele contesting the presidency are still the first to broke news of him not contesting again.. Infact, a day after the news was broke, we say photoshop photos of cars designed with Emefiele's campaign

Nigeria judicial system is as useless as northern terrorists Muslim

Giving conflicting judgment week in week out

Emefiele knows he won't be in top 5 of the primary result hence his reason from clawing on to the CBN position with all his might

The anyhowness of this Buhari government is alarming.

The CBN governor has no iota of shame and he feels as far as Buhari is concerned, it is anything goes.

This is crazy and at the same time shameful.

Did the court also restrain the president from suspending him?

People should be mindful of the kind of precedents they set, those coming behind will take it to ridiculous height.
