President Jonathan has picked the current Managing Director of Zenith Bank Godwin Emefiele to replace Sanusi Lamido Sanusi as the new Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. His name has been forwarded to the Senate for confirmation.
Bayo Adelabu, the current Executive Director at First Bank as Deputy Governor of CBN, replacing Tunde Lemo.
Sanusi was removed just a few months to the end of his tenure. His tenure was supposed to end in June 2014. Sanusi said he will challenge the decision to suspend him but will not go back to the job.
Congratulations.
ReplyDeleteAnother IBO THIEF don hammer!I'm sorry 4 dis country.But he luks like a dunce though,but looks cn b deceptive.
DeleteLinda, do a Lil bit of homework and research to find out whether the president has that power over a supposed independent body. Thanks
Delete@2:12 are you bitter that your fellow stupid, arrogant and disrespectful Hausa-Fulani brother has finally been taught how to behave towards his boss. Rude idiots!
DeleteSee the way his looking now, very soon his condition will change. Amen?
Delete@ Bonario, u have sold ur birthright for a mere pleasure! Criticizing ur root, but forgetting that there is no place like home! Keep instigating people against south ministers. I too know will kill u one day! Maybe. Should join the muslim. Akwuna nwoke.
DeleteThat Bonario is just making a fool of himself.
DeleteCongrats n advance sir
ReplyDeleteI wish him the best of luck,and he must learn from the mistakes ofLamido Sanusi that saying the truth doesn't pay in this part of the world.

BONa Ode.....can't u close dat ur smelling gut?....wat do u knw abt politics.....ur busy ova 2 mk a coment on LIB afterward u ll start criticizing peoples ur entire generation will neva smell dia Ass
DeleteTho I was pushed to abuse u, lemme save it....what truth did Sanusi say? giving Nigerians conflicting info...everyone is now confused to how much if at all anything is missing..Tnx to Lamido...U don't play politics with that kinda position...but sort the issues! he could have written the president without involving d press!
DeleteBoth anonymous commenters on here are fools
DeleteHe wrote to the president.nothing happened.whether conflicting or not,he st least stood up to speak about the rot and massive looting going on.i feel so sad for us.we will wake up one day and there will be nothing left.
DeleteMR PRESIDENT JUST APPOINTED JIM OVIA AND NOT MR GODWIN.WE ALL KNOW GODDY BOY IS JUST A YES MAN.HE DOES NOT EVEN FART WITHOUT ASKING MR OVIA.
DeleteOH DEAR.WE ARE IN TROUBLE
So sad for us.this man can't handle this o.mr fola adeola,elumelu,aig or any of the other bad boys would do a better job.atleast they will know when the looting is happening.this man won't know shit.
DeleteJona's choice of this guy as a replacement just sums it all up. I once saw this guy doing the sign of the cross before entering Jim Ovia's office. And he was the DMD then! I've never known him to have his own opinion on ANY matter. This appointment is a blank cheque for Jona to loot this country to death. It's gonna be rough, Nigeria. Very rough!
DeleteJust like that
ReplyDeleteIssokai, i just hope he knws wat he's doing
ReplyDeleteThat's a good one,our president is realy strategising
ReplyDeleteFrom where now? So the plot was to replace the whistle-blower with a southern yes-man? Kai, Jona! SMH for Naija.
ReplyDeleteWell,I hope he serves the intrest of Nigerians.M.O,my harshest critic on LIB,please read what Nigeria's best financial analyst has to say about Sanusi's suspension.
ReplyDeleteThis is serious! President jonathan is really restructuring everytyn around him nd he just keeps suprising me.I hope this one will. Work well.I am watching......
ReplyDeleteSanusi may have been "raving" mad,but I think he left you a big shoe to fill,please fill 'em & exceed our imaginations too (in a good way)...and please,can something be done about bank targets?? The pressure is crazy!
ReplyDeleteConfusion of d govt! GEJ ur tenure is a failure
ReplyDeleteWhooooops!!!! Well deserved.. So proud of ma MD! Muarhhhhhhhhhh
ReplyDelete...Iv alwyz knw diz mr Godwin 2 b xtremely Ambitious! Hiz hardwrk hz finali paid off I guess..congratz on ur New appointment sir!! Plus Jona iz vexn ooo kai
ReplyDeleteNa wa oooooo. Wetin dey happen for this country??? O___O... It's just happening like action movie!!!
ReplyDelete@Bobo_Edo
OMG! The drama keeps unfolding hour after hour, minute after minute!
ReplyDeleteWonderfUL
ReplyDeleteThis all seems so underhanded and well thought out! Suspended and they already have a replacement! Even the acting governor didn't get an opportunity to wield her power. This country actually sucks, the elites just think they can go about business anyhow they wish, irrespective of its consequence and believe the consequence could be dire!!!
ReplyDeleteSee gobe! Just like that they don change him immediately....I was even thinking they will soon resolve the matter not knowin they will appoint a new governor without wasting time...Our President is doing he thinks is right anð good for the country...Good of him...I salute him

ReplyDeleteThank god, we don't want islamic banking in nigeria.
ReplyDeleteWhat do u know about Islamic banking? Or is it d name Islamic that u despice? FYI Islamic banking is non-interest banking where u share profit or loss with your bank from d business financed by d bank without paying outrageous interest rates
DeleteAnon 2.03pm, such a daft comment!
DeleteTk u. Some people will just comment ignorantly. The Islamic banking was only proposed for Muslims
DeleteSeems as if Goodluck wants to send us back to the stone age by putting a less capable person who will not be able to challenge the government in position. The CBN is meant to be autonomous to be effective.
ReplyDeleteI taut it was sarah ALADE???
ReplyDeleteLike the great Fela will say we just dey perambulation and we still dey the same place!!!!!
ReplyDeleteMind rest on islamic banking stuff.
ReplyDeleteSips beer
ReplyDeleteOk no wahala. I haf hear u. Go and challenge. Sweet anonymous.

ReplyDeleteThis is what happens when you talk about a real man of God without facts
ReplyDeleteSharply!!!! Bros jo dey paranoid bigtym.... Congrats to the new Gov...
ReplyDeleteShouldn't the position go to a Yoruba or southwest candidate?
ReplyDeleteI am an Igbo man,but I would have genuinely supported such a move.
DeleteI am an Igbo man,but I would have genuinely supported such a move.
DeleteThankGod oooo. Nore more islamic banking or all dat rubbish sanusi proposed! Oga Jona is using his powers well as president.....at least he is not a weakling after all!!!
ReplyDeleteNigeria has finally lost it way.
ReplyDeleteDoes anybody know the perception of Nigeria now. A country of tribal men and clannish cannibals.
How will the world take us serious.
If it is the last thing i do, i will vote Jonathan out.
Corruption=PDP
I wonder what this Jona is up to
ReplyDeleteAll this is bc of 2015!!! Sanusi u sef too talk, u have alot of enemy na, Emir of Kano will be glad to see jonathan arrest u so his son can be d heir of kano throne... hope d new gov will learn from sanusi mistake of not speaking the truth......
ReplyDeleteSanusi was the best CBN governor that country ever had.The only CBN gov that won reputable international awards. The only governor that wasn't afraid of steping on toes of big wings, such as Cecelia Ibru exposing her and other banking armed robbers who traded, enriched and survived on money that were lodged by the poor.People lodged their money in banks without getting any interest. These sacked MDs by Sanusi were busy converting people's rightful interest to theirs. The government have decided to embarrass him because he exposed the 20 billion dollars that was not remitted by NNPC into the account of the federal government. Sanusi saved the banking industry and all your money, how else would you all have known that most of the banks he merged were operating on very little capital as such placing strains on your money and stealing away rightful interest u are entitled? Let me be clear on one thing, am not a muslim. I careless about religion, what's is important is that we get any one who can do the job,that person who works in the interest of the public.Islamic baking is the best system of banking, why is this? u get loans without interests on the loans you offered by banks.Islam is against interests,why do u all think the banks fought this system? work that out. Now the government has gotten a toy for a CBN governor, a man they can manipulate.All u back there are busy cheering and sending congratulatory messages.Sanusi highlighted that the federal government were not remitting necessary funds into federal account and yet they kept saying the country is broke.Pls all u back there reason well with all your senses before coming to a conclusion. This man would never last a year as CBN governor if he does not conform to the looting of the federal government. Yea yea, Sanuis sure had his flows, who doesn't? but what is interesting about him is that he understood the balance of going about things, and did what had to be done.
ReplyDeleteEven doe I work wit Zenith, a million likes to ur comment. I totally agree wit u. Emefiele is just a puppet.
DeleteTell them o! Nigerians are so blind. That's why you all will continue to have bad leaders!
DeleteWow, Sanusi should have known there is something called executive might. You can't bite the finger that fed you.
ReplyDeleteYes guy u are rite, we dnt wnt islamic banking in nigeria, oya more sponsorship for B haram.
ReplyDeleteSanusi stood up to the government and why not? who is the president? a servant of the public.He was the best.He exposed the thefts of MDs of banks, this a thing no one CBN governor could do.How do u guys reason?
ReplyDeleteCongrats Godwin!!!!!!! Lindodo hope ur day is goin on well !!
ReplyDeleteU guys are unbelievable.Be informed, investigate what islamic banking entails.I can see most guys here are kids in high schools.
ReplyDeleteall these people talking trash dont know the 1st thing about politics. Let your cook come and report to you that your wife dey die some of the market money wey u dey give am. lets see how long the cook will last in that house no matter how tasty his food is. linda luv pls post my comment
ReplyDeleteThis is just not right. Why not make the Sarah lady deputy governor . Also, when was the zenith guy consulted etc.
ReplyDeleteMy God. They have put a yes man and a sir sir boy for this enviable and important post. God help us o. See fat Reuben wey dey abuse dem before now fat on singing their praises. The power of money. Why he no go marry 2 or 3 wives sef.
ReplyDeleteWhat a bad leader we've got. Due process they said payz.
ReplyDeleteMy God. They have put a yes man and a sir sir boy for this enviable and important post. God help us o. See fat Reuben wey dey abuse dem before now fat on singing their praises. The power of money. Why he no go marry 2 or 3 wives sef.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to my MD......1 luv to u sir.Fumzy backstone says so.wink*
ReplyDeleteHow won't he be removed....u challenge the power of the president of a country in which you are a mere Central Bank Governor, that disrespectful..
ReplyDelete2. You remove policies and replace them with harsh ones not even cool for the masses but for you and you mind alone..
3. You say when receiving money from abroad, it shuld be in our local currency. When u damn well know the local currency doesn't have a stable value...that's preposterous!
4. You talk out of line, loose and belligerent like a puffed up house wife, that's "olojukokoro" ..
5. Now, u think u can win the good of your region with being truthful..its overrated they also want u out, cos u are light years ahead of your own self in rightful thoughts..
Oga jona...please play your cards well, and anybody wey wan challenge your authority and power again....#kick his/her ass out straight....this is "NIGERIA and not MYAREA"...
Linda post am or I go summon you to face my panel!

DeleteThere are different sets of rules depending on who you are. Why didn't the presidency choose a new dg for sec when arumah had issues with the house. This man has not been suspended, but sacked. How can you choose a replacement when they are just allegations. How about the 20 billions dollars missing.?. Can you please provide quick answers Reuben abating just have you have speedily addressed the nation.

DeleteCall me biased, but the mere mention of zenith bank gives me soo much fury.. My ex-boyfriend works there(the head office) and to think his boss is going to be the governor of central bank? Spells nothing but DOOM!! In capital letters.. Confused lots.. #MyOpinion..
ReplyDeleteDon't get it, what's our biz with ur ex boyfriend. Pls address the issue at hand not ur personal problem.
DeleteJUST LIKE DT? SUSPENSION AND APPOINTMENT SAME TODAY? HABAAA, ITS UNLAWFUL
ReplyDelete@bonario wat truth is he sayin? He told nigerians dat d NNPC cannot mk acct 4 d sum of $49bilion, he later said is $10b, after much investigation n pressure frm nigerians nd oda financial institutions he said is $20b, without writting much let me put dis question 2 u @bonario, How much is d money dat NNPC can't mk acct for?
ReplyDeleteThis Jonathan is an Economic iliterate n it's obvious in his rash decisions.can sm1 tell us what Tunde Lemo's fault is, conspiracy? Still think mallam SLS is d best so far
ReplyDeleteJona appointed dr Sarah as acting cbn gov, while they investigate †ђξ case ☀f Sanusi, ♓☺w cum he is sending A̶̲̅ name already to senate. Has he finished †ђξ investigation process??? Well, its politics at play.
ReplyDeleteSenate dis senate dat. E be like sey those senators dey madt. Una junior GEJ dey mumu una agbayas. With the power vested on them by the REPUBLIC, they still can't check the decisions of GEJ. If dem born una well, make una accept dat thief looking man. Sen-hate indeed.
ReplyDeleteI really hope he can do better than Sanusi
ReplyDeleteHmmm... Interesting
ReplyDeleteCongratulations pls.make.igbos proud
ReplyDeleteWell Such is life,Naija leaders they are the Ruler,Citizen they do anything anything they like .
ReplyDeleteJust when you think president Jonathan is finally getting ish together,he would disappoint you again. Even if he wanted to sack Sanusi, did he go about it the right way by law?
ReplyDeleteOk by me.

ReplyDeleteAll of you foolish people who are saying he is now free of Jim Ovia, who do you think recommended him for this job? As the is Godwin has been a front for Jim as MD of Zenith, that is how he is going to be a front for jim as CBN Governor.
