The suspension of the CBN governor is not in good taste — Reno Omokri

Published

on

Former presidential adviser Reno Omokri criticized President Bola Tinubu’s decision to suspend Godwin Emefiele after hearing the news of his suspension as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

Recall that an inquiry into Emefiele’s office and the proposed financial sector reforms led to his suspension with immediate effect. He was instructed to turn over control to Mr. Folashodun Adebisi Shonubi, the Deputy Governor (Operations Directorate).

“The suspension of Godwin Emefiele, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, by President Bola Tinubu is not in good taste.

It appears to be a vindictive act, to punish Mr Emefiele for the patriotic Naira redesign policy, which was meant, among other things, to reduce the impact of money on the #NigerianElections2023.

President Tinubu started well. Indeed, I have had cause to praise him. But he should not mar the progress he has made by this act of seeming vengeance. The country needs unity and stability after a fractious election.

Now is the time for appeasement, not punishment. It is hoped that the President will reconsider his actions for the nation’s greater good.” He said
