OAM4J:

Really?

That means he has been buying all those international awards like the Africa CBN Governor of the year he won like 2/3 times or those people who who awarded it are intellectually limited like him.

I also think you are of the higher intellectual order than Sanusi cos it takes someone who is intellectually higher to know who is intellectually limited.

Hmnnnnn..... am learning.

What a shame that we would lower the bar of evaluating our CBN's governor's efficiciency to "how many international awards" he has.
First of all, these awards are easily bought and sold, many times they have no relationship with the reality on the ground, and again the awards really to go the many hard working CBN employees who are not even recognised in any way.

Because Sanusi is 90% political, 5% banking, and 5% religious he and his teaming blind praise singers have naturally claimed these awards as his personal accolade, and his alone!
What about the ordinary worker at the bank who made it all possible.--many of them were hired by previous governors.

The real Sanusi like, I told you even before he was confirmed is someone who did not understand the basic laws of economics, and now we have just found that he too can't even add and subtract.

Four years of blind Praise-singing has led you and Jarus to this unfortunate end.

In addition to your requirements, I also want someone who knows the internal workings of the CBN, someone who's worked there or is currently there, not a newbie who will have to learn the ropes.
Also, since we've tried Soludo an economist to the core, and Sanusi a banker to the core, me feels we need and economist to the core once again.

The only person meeting this criteria is no other than Dr. Sarah Alade, a home breed economist from UI

And guess what? She will become the first female CBN governor

Bwahahahaha. The guy definitely looks like an highly educated fraudster. Africapitalism - buying up the darn continent, to enslave future generations via a ponzi scheme. grin

And Okonjo Iweala shouldn't recommend no one. With all her overloaded CV, she still can't manage the Nigerian economy - 10 years and still counting. However, The Chancellor of the Exchequer in the UK, George Osborne, who isn't as educated, with less experience, has been able to manage the UK's economy (a far bigger economy than Nigeria's) effectively, in just 3 years. God knows I don't like the Tories - but George Osborne is a freaking stud!

They need to look for an unknown economist in Nigeria that can do the job effectively.


shymens

I hate to see people that are supposedly thought they are in the know tempt to compare countries with many years of structured economic infrastructures in places of importance with a jungle such as Nigeria in real life time.

I strongly believe from all indications that the current Md/Ceo of First Bank Of Nigeria PLC,Mr. Bisi Onasanya is going to take over the position of the cbn governor come may 2014.
Re: Tony Elumelu - The Next CBN Governor by Nobody: 4:50pm On Dec 28, 2013
Tony Elumelu is more of a business guy and lately he's been acquiring more assets so he might not be interested in the post plus conflict of interest issues.
Atedo Peterside in my opinion will be the right choice,he's smart, tested and has the requisite skills to handle the post, he transformed Stanbic IBTC from nowhere to a billion dollar investment portfolio plus he showed his regulatory expertise recently in the his heading of a successful Power Privatization program plus he's already a member of the economic management team, he also knows when and when not to speak, an attribute Sanusi doesn't possess.
However, its likely GEJ will name Access Bank's outgoing MD Aig Imoukhede as his nominee.First Bank's Bisi Onasanya is also a dark horse if GEJ goes ethnic and wants to somewhat placate yorubas

Sanusi did a good job however and whoever is coming in should keep his management team

Tribalism should not be a factor in picking a qualified candidate for such an important job. Its a disgrace and utter shame to see the exhibition of tribalism by the very people who are supposed to be learned. SMH

Dr. Alade is 100% better than Sanusi in every aspect regarding the office. However, her limited knowledge on international banking and finance makes me give 'B' instead of 'A'

Bro,

Don't waste your breath on these tribal apologists.

Because it is 12 or even 10 billion USD that is unaccounted for instead of the quoted 50 billion USD, it implies NNPC has been vindicated and Sanusi should be punished right?

We are talking 1.9 Trillion Naira missing within NNPC.
Deziani should be standing on hot charcoal now if GEJ isn't an accomplice.

And we complain about the sorry state of the Nigeria

la furia:
Pleaseeeeee, jeopardising what, tell me, did the subsidy scam jeopardize the government? Look nothing will shake this government even if it is a trillion dollars corruption.
The question now is what happened to the 12b dollars that the government agreed is missing? Please answer the missing 12b dollars na, no you won't, you want us to concentrate on why Sanusi said it was 50b dollars instead 12b dollars abi.
Alright Sanusi will pay the price for misquoting, agreed o,. Now tell me who should be held responsible for the 12b dollars that is missing?
Re: Tony Elumelu - The Next CBN Governor by maxtamazin: 5:01pm On Dec 28, 2013
PapaBrowne: I think the post of CBN would kind of belittle Elumelu. The guy is poised for much bigger. Boggling him down in regulatory bureaucracy would not cut it for Elumelu. The trending words today in global finance are impact investment, conscious capitalism and social entrepreneurship. Elumelu is at the forefront of these three with his Africapitalism model.

For a regulatory institution like CBN, we need folks who are long on policy framework design and implementation. A Soludo type who can easily create policy and convert it into practicality. Not a lot of people come to mind.

She is pretty much institutional. As in she appears to have been in the system. While that is ok, it prevents one from taking pretty bold policy steps as understanding the system as it works usually lets one just flow with the process. I like her though and I think she should be considered.

Sanusi was born on 31 July 1961. His father was a Permanent Secretary in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the 1960s and his grandfather was Emir of Kano and Islamic Scholar, Alhaji Muhammadu Sanusi. Sanusi graduated from King's College Lagos in 1977 and studied at Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria earning a BSc in Economics in 1981. He then taught economics at ABU from 1983 to 1985. He also obtained a degree in Islamic law from International University of Africa, Khartoum.


Msc in Economics
Maybe you sold it to him but he has refused to add it to his CV.

Two wrongs do not make a right.

So if indeed he questioned NOI's credentials as you claim, does that justify your confederates vilifying Sanusi without a genuine basis?

With all due respect to Sanusi apologists on this thread, the man lowered the bar set by Soludo!
When he came in and was only parroting "risk in the system.. risk management...risk, risk, risk!" I knew he would fail at the job.
For a CBN governor to gaffe in the amount of money at the CBN up to a whooping $38 billion is the height of incompentency!
I am grateful that GEJ has done the needful with him by firing his @ss.
Good riddance!

As for his replacement, my 20/20 tells me that he/she has to be a core technocrat as well as a person not working for the opposition.
Nigeria's CBN has developed to international standards (thanks to SOLUDO who restructured it for dominance in Africa). I believe that the institution itself can withstand a mediocre like Sanusi without crashing. So, those who say that GEJ should pick a loyal person is on point. cool
