He agrees humans are falliable.<BR/>2. He is not afraid to acknowledge being wrong, whenever he is.<BR/>But, a word to our President's advisers, they should do their work effectively.<BR/>...to the issue of crucfying him (Soludo), he read through the CBN's Act (but, maybe misinterpreted or didn't grasp it wholly) and Mr. President has suspended the proposed new policy.<BR/>Fine, even Soludo has spoken "...that the Board of CBN recognises and reaffirms Mr. President's approving authority .....and therefore accepts Mr. President's decision to suspend the re-denomination..." <BR/>So, if Mr. President could have erred (either personally or through the Attorney-General) and he accepted and took necessary (& appropriate) actions and we accepted, is Soludo different?<BR/>Haba, let's give it to him, he proposed a new policy but didn't go about it properly according to law; so what? He's even accepted to have erred. What else do we want?<BR/>We should be glad to now have a new set of leaders who are proactive, willing and ain't afraid of proposing policies (seeing a greater Nigeria) but, more importantly, 'biting the bullet' when they err. <BR/>Afterall, we ain't looking for perfect leaders.laspapihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15623856064617482177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17743811.post-40120208496511404442007-08-23T08:38:00.000-07:002007-08-23T08:38:00.000-07:00@ kokolette- I agree that we're being had.

We pay extreme prices for these things here. <BR/><BR/>@ god's child- this is heavy, gc, and I had to sit with a couple of people to dissect your words.

Everyone will have to go and change their currency, it appears CBN will give folks from jan-aug to get that done. So people thinking of saving money, and then hoping that their N100,000 now remains N100,000 in the new system...LMAO, think again, its not happening.<BR/><BR/>It forces the naira to be stronger but just as hard as it takes the common people now to get N1mil so will it take the common man to get N10,000(the equiv) in the new systemGod's childhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12772222963988397221noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17743811.post-34714987170892714212007-08-22T19:34:00.000-07:002007-08-22T19:34:00.000-07:00me i dont understand all these naija cable stuvvs ...me i dont understand all these naija cable stuvvs but it sound like the customer ends up paying for any yawa...not fair!kokolettehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02960387981523354651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17743811.post-6847408489537539942007-08-22T12:13:00.000-07:002007-08-22T12:13:00.000-07:00Kafo, rent will go down at that ratio?

Many thanks. <BR/><BR/>@ 'moni, Kafo's given a pointer. I think the guy in issue is the lawyer, Toyin Subair.<BR/><BR/>@ Uzo- I know we're the ones paying the price for this mess.
