By their statement you will know them, if CBN is active on money laundering, the backbone of BH sponsor would have been identify with illegal transfer of transaction within Nigeria bank, but Sanusi is not care until now, no amount is big to bring peace back to Nigeria as a whole

Ilox: I dont think this so called CBN boss knows what he is saying, has he 4goten how much billions of naira Nigeria has spend to help other Africa nations during crisis. In every war situation there must be an expenses, abi our gallant soldiers no go chop ? pls let dis man sleep he speak like a terrorist.

The millions spent on Mali and Sudan was justified according to Sanusi.
No wonder he spends all his waking hours listening to foreign capitalist rating of Nigeria and rejoice at the slightest nice remark when people back home are living below a dollar the the naira has lost its value.

With all d noise cbn were making about account classification into individual, corporate etc as it affects KYC and cash limit on account, SLS did not react to the news that broke from the Defence HQ yesterday that a certain N600m was found in a mere orange seller's account suspected to be a Boko Haram conduit.

Yet he is advising GEJ not to over spend on military operations in his northern region at it would affect inflation, economy etc, how convenient!

Little wonder why Boko Haram is faceless!

But we can overspend on burial arrangements of several boko haram victims.By their speech ye shall know the sponsors of boko haram

But why is it that northern leaders are shitting in their pants, crying foul more than ever when relative success is now being recorded against insurgency? From Buhari calling for GEJ's resignation to this Sanusi's statistics. Methinks, these people would rather the bombings $ killings continue so as to help shape their personal gains and score cheap political points. Various SOEs had been declared prior to this current govt without these anti-executive stance on financial implication basis. Peace is never to expensive.

Aboki na Aboki walai!

The stolen police pension fund if recovered is enough to prosecute this war against Boko Haram.

The CBN malam should advice Jonathan's govt on the need for probity and not attempt to cause distraction by raising alarm.

No matter the behemoth amount of money is going to cost, their is no amount that is to much a price to pay for peace. So long as peace and tranquility will be attained at the end.

Even U.S.A have and is still spending gargantuan amount of money to fight Terrorism. Between, is it not better to spend the money on security instead of stealing of our money by microscopic few in the country??

miss ibu: Mallam Sanusi, is it your money?

Ask am o.. He went to rain millions when kano was bombed..i suspect this guy.

Sanusi and Buhari = BH

America spent billions to develop drones to spy terrorist location. Nothing wrong to ensure that before the year end, innocent lifes are not wasted by your agents mallam.

If SLM tthinks he can use CBN to promote BH cause, then he's mistaken. if he likes let him get PHD terrorism from University of Taliban, Yemen that one na him pocket.

Sharrap! Murrrrra fuckkkkkka!

But 2 billion naira got missing from the mint house,He already donated over 200 million to Kano?Is Sanusi a learner?

these people are so pissed. they using both direct and indirect means to express their disapproval of Govt declaration of state of emergency in these book haram infested states. in other words they were enjoying their activities, there are their patrons. shame on them

careytommy: Sanusi should please tell how the government overspends in military operations. Whatever it costs to get the job done so be it!

Sanusi clearly did not accuse the FG in overspending on the military. His statement looks more like an advice.

adconline: Why is he making unnecessary comments on national issues even when he's no expert? Does he know anything about specialization?

sammyzacks: Rubbish analysis! Is he saying that war should have no cost. Whats inflation compared to boko haram terrorism of innocent people?

wonder wts wrong wt these dudes. His comments may be ryt but ill-timed. SLS face ur job n stop saying thrash

Like him or hate him. Sanusi is absolutely correct, you do not want to destroy your economy because of this SOE. Those people criticising him will be the same people blaming government for a failed economy.

We must be financially responsible in executing this, Nigera will still be here after boko haram, so we must acheive the peace in a prudent fashion for the sake of the future.

The US entered unnecessary wars and paid the price with its exploding debt.

And this warning is coming at the right time too. . When else do you want the warning to come?

Sanusi is spot on.

Is it not clear from all indications that this man us insane? If he has nothing else to analyse, let him go to bed. He is always busy analysing rubbish .. just another bloody islamist.

How is SOE going to endanger the economy but boko haram didn't?

Sanusi shouldn't worry, Boko Haram has already flattened the economy of these states, unless he wants it to spread further into his native Kano.

This ain't war man.. Where was he when incessant deaths and spates of bombings became the order of the day? Well, FG has to stop at nothing to eradicate these illiterate islamists.. The same lamido will also come on air to blame FG for insecurity... rubbish

Military exercises are very very expensive. Nigerians has moved in the heavy equipment.
Lamido is part of this government so he won't be criticising it, at least not in public. But as an economist, he has to warn the government when the occasion arises.

All he has said , is that we should be prudent with military expenditure.

ocelot2006:

Sanusi clearly did not accuse the FG in overspending on the military. His statement looks more like an advice.

What sorta advice are u talking about? Can u say that to and of your boss? such statements should come from the finance minister and must never be made, cos it would amount to saying or implying that the president does know what he is doing or he is reckless. this is too bold of sanusi..he is long overdue for a kick in da buutt outta da cbn the same way Collin Powel criticised bush and honorably resigned. Gej is taking too much shhit from these notherners.. And besides why are they still so keen on the amnesty tingy for people they themselves termed foreigners some time back knowing full well its gonna involve wasting billions?

I don't support GEJ, but support this SoE move. Sanusi's stance is very stupid, how can he be talking about inflation when the country is at war

If there's no more Nigeria (what BH aims to achieve), which country's inflation index would be measured OR will it have been split? In fact, the guy is just plain mad for this statement. I don't think he ever listened in his economics classes while in school.

misterh: I doubt most people that have made comments even went through the post. SLS did not condemn the SoE. He only warned that the FG should take cognisance of the economy while trying to rid the country of the BH menace.

Separating institutions from individuals seem to be a problem in this country. The rate people take to insults simply because they disagree with the position of someone surprises me. They don't want to listen to Sanusi - it is made to look like he SOLELY takes decision at the apex bank without a board. Similarly, some want the CBN to only focus on banks like the CBN is not govt's financial adviser and controller of the nation's monetary policy. So much of islamophobia observed here - my solace lies in the fact that the sample of comments cannot represent all Nigerians for if ordinary Nigerians fail to discuss issues becloud of sentiments, one will sincerely ask, "which way Nigeria?"

There is nothing spot on here! the man is simply indirectly expressing his disapproval, along with those of his fellow mallams,of the soe declaration by the president and you don't do that when your boss takes a decision..i dare you to do that to your boss at work..
We all are gonna see,this sanusi is gonna be da greatest critic of GEJ after he quits cbn

Indirectly?? Sorry, I am not a mind reader.

Sanusi has not condemned the SOE, all he said is be financially responsible. He hasn't done anything wrong.

I wonder if there would be this kind of reaction if Ngozi said this.

It is ridiculous the way you guys think.

Am surpris of how paranoid these xtains are, the mallam advise the goverment NOT to overspend!! Which is quite different to NOT to spend! What eva u may think, the man is right and overspending especially in warfare which is costly affair has consequenses, ask the americans, european union and all those fools that participate in their so call war on terror and see how their economy is still suffering, or even better russia whose ussr empire crumbles because of overspending in millitary expenditure.

You have to spend whatever is necesssary to build your house according to the engineer's specification.
If you decide NOT to spend then you will have to rebuild your house with the next rain or earth tremor etc.

They should spend whtaever is necessary and prevent wastage of every other gov't spending on BH.

shouldn't mallam sanusi be saying: BH stop destroying the north and Nigeria
BH is it not our houses and economy you are destroying
BH save your money and float a party and contest election

There are people even in England who have crazy ideas and they have parties and they get funding and they contest elections!

Mallam is berking the wrong tree!

hmmm sanusi you are funny oh, what a pitty you are acting like judas did in the days of Jesus christ, can you compare the value of the lives and properties that was distintegreted by the rebellious element and the cost of the solution? Think cost it will not be up to.
