Disregard any NGROPPMAN election, Aimu Foni tells Nigerians



Mr. Aimu Foni has told Nigerians to disregard any factional president in the guise of representing the National Groundnut Producers Processors and Marketers Association of Nigeria, NGROPPMAN.

This was made known over the weekend shortly after a court sitting in Abuja issued a restraining order stopping members of National Groundnut Producers, Processors Marketers Association of Nigeria NGROPPMAN  from any form of conducting groups election until a clear date from the Ministry of Trade and investment are reached.


The Judge Hon. Yahaya Sheshi of the Grade 1 Area court sitting at Kado Federal Capital Territory on Tuesday 19th, 2021 in a suit CV/2/2021 gave the motion compelling the defendants Mr. Usman Dabirni, Mr. Mohammed Mustapha, and Mr. Salisu Dabai not to impersonate or conduct any form of election until the hearing of the motion.

The motion reads "An Order of interim injunction restraining the defendants or any other person(s) agents, previes and servants from conducting election into the executive council of NGROPPMAN as scheduled for 11:30am of the 20th January, 2021 or at any other time date pending at the hearing and determination of motion on notice."

 "An Order of interim injunction restraining the defendants from parading themselves out in the public as National president, secretary and treasurer of National Groundnut Producers, Processors Marketers Association of Nigeria respectively pend the hearing and motion of notice," as the matter was adjourned to the 24th January,  2021.

Reacting to it was the lead plaintiff Mr. Aimu Foni, who expressed dissatisfaction over the act of some members of NGROPPMAN impersonating as executives  with the aim of tarnishing the association outside. He insisted that the rule of law is more paramount in the growth and development of every association, advising that same rules should be kept in NGROPPMAN.

Speaking further, Aimu Foni advised that a proper date for election will be communicated, calling on Central Bank of Nigeria and other state and federal parastartas not to deal with any purported newly elected executives of NGROPPMAN until  the ministry sits  with the group on the 28th January before an election date will be decided.

"... 2023 Presidency must swing South is a wise arrangement that must be left sacrosanct" -Fola Ojo

Wrote Fola Ojo IF Nigeria were a society where ethnic bigotry and tribal dogmatism do not cheaply overrun and almost eviscerate commonsensical rational thinking and open-mindedness, the discussion about what region or geopolitical zone the next president should come from in 2023 wouldn’t have attracted my flimsiest attention. If mutual distrust and bruised co-existential relationship sincerely do not exist among Nigerians positioned high or low, who becomes the presidential charge-d’affaires should have been freely weighed strictly around a candidate’s competence and savviness to govern and administer free and easy without a hamper from invisible shackles that come with governance. If top political portfolios in the country and high-ranking seats in juicy offices like the NNPC, Customs , and the likes were dished out based exclusively on pedigreed credentials, and not the village aspirers for those positions  come from, I wouldn’t have chosen to join in the debate about whether the...
