hi biina and @kobojunkie I still need this guys resume . I don't seem to find his resume on firstbank website or even cbn website. Can someone please provide me with his resume (something like I detailed Soludos) as I need to start selling him to colleagues who are still sceptical.

NB: Pls omit the sharia thing !

I don't know him,but i don't just bother with issues like this,immigration matter is just a case desperate africans against the west,we and dem,it is a matter of survival,not criminality.

The real criminality is like the case of the french students that were brutally murdered by two criminal that were left by law to roam the street instead of being locked up.

How many times in the U.s are demonstrations dispersed by tear gas .

I would ask that u watch the footage again  from my own observation it clearly shows that demonstrations were pre arranged. it is well organised event with visible presence of  traffic marshalls or event agents and i fail to see anywhere in the footage where it is was hijacked by rioters.  Did u see where a man wearing the red  tshirt or uniform been dragged into the nearby policestation.

Capital punishment has no place in any developed society.

The United States, unfortunately, is still on the list of nations filled with vengeful ignoramuses still trapped in the dark ages, along with nations like Nigeria, China and Saudi Arabia.

Kudos to the European nations (including Turkey, South Africa, Canada, New Zealand, etc.) holding the torch, shinning into the future of humanity.

i hate to say this so long as they are recruiting nigerians it will be almost be as bad as the police we already have.

could be wrong but IMHO Barca are ingrates to Eto'o. Come to Chelsea o jare. 

The Declaration of Independence was adopted after thorough debate and a vote. It could not have been adopted without the majority carrying the day.  The document was fully democratic.

That is not true. Ballot measures are not necessarily an initiative of the legislature.  Anybody can gfet any measure on the ballot box if they can have the necessary number of people supporting them through an appended document.

We totally differ here.  Rights by my understanding and as expressed by the Declaration of Independence is not given by the State. The State was instituted to secure those Rights. What you are refering to are priviledges.  Rights are God-given. The State did not give you life or liberty.  It was instituted to ensure no one deprives you of both.

I cant put that in a few words. And if you read well the you will summarize in the following works.
Global, International Consultant, One of the most foremost economists in our generation. , Consultancy is not theoretical ! Please see the bodies and organisations he consulted for. They are by no means inconsequential. I'm not talking about first bank here !
Common, don't talk all that down it doesn't come easy.
can you make the best carpenter in your country CBN governor? It wont surprise me though, its because of people like you that these leaders get away with so much rubbish and mediocrity.

Apart from comparing Soludo resume with Sanusi's (which I saw as an insult!) ,I compared Soludo to these guys because central/reserve bank governors are headed by renowned Economics with strong academic bases, and Consultancy and advisory experience to go with,not proffessional bankers . Have you ever wondered why? I thought the world bank/ IMF have always clearly recommended this.

  Greenspan was appointed by the Reagan and served until GW Bush. Bernake was appointed by GW Bush (Republican Administration), and Mervyn king by Tony Blair and both still there till today.
You don't replace such a highly qualified individual if you don't have any compelling need to. Neither do you play politics with the economy.
Well you have a point. I wish him luck. But the job of Central bank governor is completely different from that of first bank. And I hope he is ready.
For Soludo comes new challenges in the world bank/UN/IMF where he joins Okonjo and Ezekwesili.
While we are stuck with these lightweights over here.

Long Live the Federal Republic of Nigeria!

Must the North always make money this way?
Why can't they think of ways to make their own states productive?
For now, Nigeria is a classic case of Monkey (oil-producing states) dey work, Baboon (the North) dey chop

Compare this to the resume of the likes of Alan Greenspan(US), Ben Bernanke (US), Mervyn King(UK) and tell me where your Sanusi fits in.

Did I hear you say sharia or whatever he studied in sudan.
