President
Jonathan has further ordered that Mallam Sanusi should hand over to the most
senior Deputy Governor of the CBN, Dr Sarah Alade who will serve as Acting
Governor until the conclusion of on-going investigations into breaches of
enabling laws, due process and mandate of the CBN.
The
President expects that as Acting Governor of the Central Bank, Dr. Alade will
focus on the core mandate of the Bank and conduct its affairs with greater
professionalism, prudence and propriety to restore domestic and international
confidence in the country’s apex bank.
The Federal
Government of Nigeria reassures all stakeholders in Nigeria’s financial and
monetary system that this decision has been taken in absolute good faith, in
the overall interest of the Nigerian economy and in accordance with our laws
and due process.
