Ohanaeze Ndigbo, an Igbo socio-cultural organization, has supported President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s decision to suspend the controversial Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele.
Remember that Tinubu announced Emefiele’s suspension through the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
Emefiele was arrested in Lagos and whisked to Abuja on a private jet by Department of State Services (DSS) operatives after being replaced as acting CBN governor by Folashodun Adebisi Shonubi.
Ohanaeze told DailyPost that the controversial CBN governor allowed himself to be destroyed by the cabals that ran former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Okechukwu Isiguzoro, Secretary-General of Ohanaeze, said Emefiele played into the hands of the cabals who never wanted Bola Tinubu to become president.
Isiguzoro said:
Emefiele allowed himself to be destroyed by cabals who never wanted Tinubu to become president.
As a CBN governor, he shouldn’t have dabbled into the murky waters of politics and having been pushed to run for APC presidential primaries against others, especially Tinubu.
We see Emefiele’s suspension as good riddance to bad rubbish, the arrest of Emefiele is in the right direction, and Ohanaeze applauds it.
Emefiele’s continued stay in office will undermine Tinubu’s presidency, and it’s in the right direction.
