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.u get mouth. I dy feel ur intellect. |

Pls don't ask me how; Sanusi shld just go...That guy contributed so much to the high rate of unemployment in Nigeria. He shld just go and concentrate on his Emir of Kano ambition. Ever since that man goofed about the $48bn scandal I'd concluded that a thorough review of his activities as CBN gov. shld be done. I still wonder how U̶̲̥̅̊ just wake up one day and take the investments some pple laboured to establish and U̶̲̥̅̊ just sell them off in a jiffy #Intercontinental #Oceanic?? That guy is a pure tribalist and eediot. Wonder how he got that job. His tenure as CBN gov has been that of a draconian rule. A huge mistake for that matter. He only succeeded in destroying Soludo achievements; gush! May we never have such a tenure in this country again. Amen!!! 1 Like |

mbulela: Akingbola's house was built on quicksand, because some people in Nigeria didn't appreciate a man who would build something as large as Intercontinental from nothing. He employed thousand of Nigerians too. When you say banking cowboys, I have a feeling you mean capitalists. Banking and business are the market to make money, no pretense! It's govermental's job to regulate, the problem with you and Sanusi has been that you made up your mind from day 1 about who has made too much money and who has been more greedy than others. Well greed is not a crime. That Soludo allowed bankers to do whatever they liked is also not understanding the issue. How do you like me now? Sanusi that didn't allow bankers to do whatever they like, how's that turning out for you?. He has put in place many shortsighted restriction, also measures to stiffle the economy all in the name of "control", he wants bankers to respect him as emir! At the end of the day, he too is also greedy as you can see. Worse still he wants no regulation of his own greed. Humans are born to be greedy, and that's good. That's called capitalism. However, it has to be regulated. |

Thank you The worst fear is that we have people who are supporting him based on tribalism, religion, and shallow understanding. It's only in the primitive era than a stronger man would wake up, take another mans property, finds reasons or allegations for doing so, and still the society would support him. |

emmyoha87: Do I sound like Im joking? Name a Nigerian tribe better than Yoruba at leading successful corporate and public administrations or running growth strategies and government policies. Gej's administration is politically delinquent and morally insolvent. Where should he go to turn his scorecard green? He cant go to East, thats all he is sorrounded with now and they helped sank him this deep; they dont have the technocrats and bureacrats needed to get him out. The best brain you have in East is NOI, a Harvard graduate and director of World Bank with zero instinct for running an efficient economy or managing policies. She was sent out of the same occupied position when her incompetencies as a decision maker became obvious to Gej's predecessor. Who vetted her for a return to the job? Another incompetent bureacrat from East? It ought to enter Guinness World records as an unsolved human mystery that the pair of a Harvard graduate who also was a World Bank Director and a two times Finance Minister, served in a ruling capacity with a Phd University Professor who had seasoned stints first as a Deputy Governor, then as Governor of a State, upgraded to VP and then a elected President, yet they could not steer the affairs of a Nation half as efficiently and prosperously as was done by a 32yr old Gowon who had no more than a secondary school education and rudimentary military trade schools or another 35yr old Obasanjo with similar education as Gowon but innately savvy in the management and administration of manpower and political states. Yes, I agree, we need the Best man for the job! Ibos are not known for producing "best man for the job". If they did, with as many Ibos that serve as pillars of his administration, Jonathan should be rocking as the best regime we ever had in this country. In fact, if he was sorrounded by as many Yorubas as he had Ibos, the finance ministry, aviation, education, and so on, should be enjoying similar encomiums as is directed towards his Yoruba Agric Minister, Mr Adesina. We need an Adesina type for CBN. |

Elumelu is at the forefront of these three with his Africapitalism model. Sensible stuff. I hardly make comments on here as the forum's been hijacked by propagandists of various govt and political interests. You read most comments and marvel at the level of enlightenmnet of the youths of this country. Whatever..rants over! Back to the matter: Your point on Mr Tony is spot on. Unfortunately I think Aig-imokhuede is the annointed one by the presidency and Mrs know-it-all Iweala. Of course you know why, he is a piece of the same cloth. Merit hardly count in this current set up. Plus his inlaw is the head of BOI, and he's a very familiar face in the corridors of Aso. To date, it baffles everyone in the know how a bank is sold to her biggest debtors (Mr Aig and his rogue banker friend Herbert Wigwe). Just as we have the likes of NOI (who is making progress for the country only on ppt slides), Deziani, SLS, its the season of corporate rogues and hypocrites with the Ivy league facade. This administration cherishes those types as such will favour one close to that to be next gov. Merits died a long time ago. Cheers, |

Mayor_of_Lagos: Sir, I don't think this should be about tribe since it's the apex bank in country - and ethnic interests shouldn't be attached to that. Mark Carney, the Governor of the Bank of England, is not British - he's Canadian. Despite London being the financial capital of the world (yes, ahead of New York). The UK has tons of great economists, however, non can compete with Carney's track-record and how he was able to manage the financial crises of two countries (Canada and Russia). That's what Nigeria also needs to do. Anyway, SLS has done a good job, though he has his shortcomings, with his loose talks and Northern sentiments. He's definitely one of the most eloquent and articulate Nigerian I've seen in interviews. However, he was able to stabilise the banking system in Nigeria, after the bubble created by his predecessor and the bankster bandits. If not for his timely intervention - the country's banking system would have crashed. However, my only reservation about him is his romance with Christine Lagarde - and probably his never ending trips to London. I still don't know how much of Nigeria's money, both him and Iweala, wasted on those worthless EU bonds - to bail out the EU. I read about it in Financial Times time ago. Also, his cashless policy is like putting the cart before the horse. Nigeria isn't ripe for that yet - everything has to be done in stages. But the guy on this thread should never be allowed near the Central Bank. Else, he would sell the whole country. 1 Like |

This has nothing to do with tribe, or any other sentimental arguments some of you are putting up. Aig Aig-Umokuhede of Access Bank retired recently in preparation for that position which he'll take up next year. The man has been loyal to GEJ, and he's helped a lot of PDP members to "manage" their financial portfolio. |

@ OP - Tony Elumelu hasn't got the risk management acumen to be a CBN governor as the post demands in todays markets. A bullish market needed a soludo but the current status quo requires a careful and almost conservative hand. Elumelu never! I like that Boyo man instead(I've forgotten his first name). Tony is too much of a financial systems man and cowboy for the job |
