Who Appointed The Emir As Chancellor of UNIBEN? by dovetark: 10:39am On Nov 26, 2015
Jonathan appoints former CBN boss, Emir Sanusi as UNIBEN pro-chancellor

The former governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, and Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi (Muhammad Sanusi II), has been appointed as the pro-chancellor of the University of Benin, Edo State.

Sanusi received his letter of appointment at his palace on Monday from the Minister of Education, Ibrahim Shekarau. The former CBN boss who raised the issue of the missing money at NNPC, said it is good to always do good.

“I’m saying this because as the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria then, I came to the rescue of the university by spending N500 million to construct a bridge yearned for by the university for over 30 years.
“If at that time one told me I would reap the reward of that job almost immediately I would not agree, but today, in Allah’s favour, I’m being appointed the pro-chancellor of the university, something that is telling one that he should always think of being good not only to his close people but to everybody far and near,” he said.

Oshiomhole is one of the best performing Governors - Emir Sanusi


Oshiomhole

Emir of Kano, Muham­mad Sanusi II, has described the performance of Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State as commendable and satisfying.

The traditional ruler made this statement during a courtesy visit to the governor at the Government House, Benin city.
He said, “I am happy to see that you are doing well.

“I have been following some of your recent com­ments on the minimum wage, you have remained consistent with the ideals for which you are known.

“I am here this time on the occasion of the honour done to me by President Muhammadu Buhari by ap­pointing me Chancellor of the University of Benin.


“Your Excellency, for me, it is a matter of deep pride to be associated with this city and this state and this partic­ular university, and, I can as­sure you we will do our best to ensure we bring as much development as we can and to further strengthen the ex­cellent relationship between the people of Kano and the people of Edo.”

Responding, Governor Oshiomhole said he was honoured to receive the Emir at the Government House.

“As the governor of this state, I still have fond mem­ories of your last visit to Edo State then, as the governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) with regards to your resourcefulness, and initia­tives in the area of empow­erment of rural people. We remember the laudable lega­cies that your highness left behind as the CBN governor.

“I want to thank you for your support, for your kind words and your prayers. We also want to congratu­late your highness on your richly deserved appointment as the Chancellor of the Uni­versity of Benin which we are all proud to describe as UNIBEST and I am sure un­der your leadership, it would witness even more growth and development and Edo as a community will continue to benefit from the activities of the university.”

Failing to give glory and honour to whom it is due is a terrible thing that even God despises.

It is simply cruel.

I pray that President Buhari & Emir Sanusi never get to feel unappreciation from those they would have assisted.

This Sanusi is bent on not giving Jonathan credit for anything good only the bad ones. SMH
