Governor Adams Oshiomhole has come under heavy
criticisms over his recent statement on the secret
recruitment of relatives of the ruling All Progressives
Congress into top positions in the Central Bank of
Nigeria (CBN) .




Oshiomhole recently described those who have called
for the removal of Godwin Emefiele, the CBN
governos as faceless manipulators and palmwine
drinkers.




The Advocacy for Societal Rights Advancement and
Development Initiative (ASRADI), a civil society
organisation, has reacted to the statement by the
governor adding that “Oshiomhole is the governor of a
state that looks, dresses, talks and behaves like a palm
wine tapper.”



The group’s executive director, Deolu Oyinlola, stated
that at the last count, Emefiele has secretly employed
909 privileged Nigerians into the apex bank without
advertising a single vacancy.



The statement read: “In order for the public to decide
who – between those calling for Emefiele’s removal and
the classless state governor – is politicising what ASRADI
believes is a straight forward case of abuse of office and
betrayal of public trust, we would like to pose the
following questions:
“Is it ‘faceless and shadowy’ groups (according to the
loose cannon and his fake coalition of ‘CSOs’) that forced
Emefiele to unlawfully release raw cash of forty seven
million dollars ($47million) in 17 suit cases to Sambo
Dasuki as part of what is now famously known as
Dasukigate?



“Is a CBN governor who is suspected to be deeply
involved in what, clearly, is money laundering, standing
on any moral high ground to remain in that office?



“Is it our loquacious pigmy’s ‘palm wine drinkers’ that
scandalously employed the sons, daughters, nephews,
nieces, wards of people like President Muhammadu
Buhari, former vice president Abubakar Atiku, former
Speaker of the House of Representatives, Ghali Na’Abba.



“Internal affairs minister, Abdulrahman Dambazzau;
inspector general of police, Solomon Arase; comptroller
general of customs, Hameed All; NNPC group managing
director, Ibe Kachikwu; governor of Adamawa state, the
deputy governors of Delta and Bayelsa states; to mention
but a few?



“At the last count, Emefiele has secretly employed 909
privileged Nigerians without advertising a single vacancy!
Which CSO worthy of that appellation would support such
a patently anomalous and egregiously corrupt exercise?


“Little wonder, no individual’s name was associated with
a release that was attributed to a phoney ‘coalition of
CSOs! It is, in all probability, safe to conclude that
Emefiele and the state governor in question – between
them – created the ‘coalition’ out of desperation.”


“It is a shame and an embarrassment for someone who
became governor of a state based on a reputation of
being a comrade, would curiously make it his business to
be defending the indefensible so senselessly.”



The group advised the CBN boss to resign and turn
himself in at the offices of the anti-graft agency
saying: “If the Buhari administration’s change mantra is
to be taken seriously, Emefiele must be shown the exit
door without further delay by invoking the relevant
portions of the CBN Act 2007 (particularly, section 11(2)
(c) thereof).”



In a related development, some civil society leaders
and lawyers have called for the withdrawal of
employment offers to children of former past and
serving government officials, ministers, a nephew of
President Muhammadu Buhari.
