Ileke-IdI: The title did also say "great." It's obvious it was just about big names for the OP, but he left some room there to include people who aren't famous. |

Wow. Didn't realize I got a post from this handicapped cretinous little toad, Alj Harem. great whatyyt u better go check your head pefore you start posting trash here Amen. But wait oh, lemme' I ask you a simple question :: If niggas like me dey talk, wasted rotten fleshbags like you dey cut in? Eh? I was going to flame you hard for your imbecillic comment; but from reading a few of your equally wretched comments and realizing you're just about as educated as a fecal skidmark, I'll pardon your stupidity just this once. You can give your leprous fingers a rest from that keyboard now. Gently retire to your moldy cave, fool. |

Hey stop misattributing success. Moghalu, like any other member of CBN team, deserves credit, but to say he is the brain behind Sanusi is taking it too far. Sanusi had taken a number of major actions even before Moghalu came on board. Wetin Mallam sabi? If by now, you still haven't seen Sanusi's brilliance, then I'm afraid something is wrong. |
Re: Great/famous People From Your State! by Jarus(m): 6:52am On Feb 19, 2011 |
Hey Mosh, Kadiri Ikhana is from Edo, Wole Olanipekun from Ekiti and Prof Oloyede Unilorin VC is from Abeokuta.Sure of her husband but not sure Prof Bolanle Awe is from Kwara. Meanwhile, u excluded others like: Prof Oyawoye, former Chairman GTB, first African professor of Geology Rashidi Yekini(Highest goal scoring record for SE, 1st Nigerian to score in WC) Toyin Zubair - HiTV owner Adesoye(father of modern private secondary education in Nigeria) Veteran journalists: Hameed Adio, Niyi Oyeleke, Simon Kolawole, Segun Adeniyi, Akinloye Oyebanji |

Jarus:No doubt Sanusi has the character and drive to do what hes done (and I give him kudos for that) but his CV depicts a complete lack of knowledge and exposure. Secondly why would a man appointed on the grounds of his risk management credentials go and hire an international foreign based risk management expert as deputy Na only risk management and supervision CBN dey do ? Like Soludo (another Anambrain) said, that is just 20% of the job. And hes not just " like any other member of CBN team" hes the no 2 man. |
