obadiah777: THE WEST WILL NO LONGER EXIST AFTER WW3. WW3 IS THE DESTRUCTION OF THE WEST. AN IMPLOSION OF THE WORLD POWERS. THEY WOULD ALL NUKE EACH OTHER BACK INTO THE STONE AGE <<<< GODS PLANS. BIBLICAL PROPHESY UNFOLDING

the colonial masters brought that book you call bible to africa,is cristianity the only religion in the world??what will happen to the hindus,budais,muslems?haven and hell are all here on earth.no hell fire is more than nigeria,the way it is now.nigeria is hell on earth

Billyonaire: We all thought Nigeria is hopeless with the old men and ex-military coupists that controlled power and never gave chance to the young generations. We wanted the Jerry Rawlings style, but a bolt from the blues, 'good-luckily' got into the Presidency without a spill of blood, and was called 'retardeen' and 'drunk fisherman' by Enemies of United Nigeria. This 'goodluck' man, displaced IBB and Buhari and made 'OHBEEJAH' redundant from Corrupted PDP. This goodlucky guy, is cleansing the party of all bad eggs. We need to support Vatsa's command to this old General. What can an old man without a facebook account do for a 21st Century Nigerian. The answer is nothing but mayhem. The old generation of politicians need to give us a chance to clean off their 52yrs old mess.

Buhari should NEVER have been heard of, if the toll-collecting Iscariot with frog eyes did not align with the aged coupe plotter. It is the reason I say that APC, which formally was used to treat headaches, is now being used to resurrect political headaches in this country. Say no to APC with Buhari, but APC without Buhari would have won over many men of knowledge. As it is, APC is gang of rustication PDP culprits.

Youth, they say, is the leaders of tomorrow, but I doubt, if Buhari will give the youth a chance to determine their tomorrow.

A vote for Buhari, is a vote for Boko Haram!

FreshAir 2015 in Advance! Stand to be counted amongst the dream weavers of tomorrow.

and say yes to pdp??after 14years what do you have to show nigerians?

obadiah777: NIGERIANS DESERVE THE SUFFERING THEY ARE IN. OK LETS DISSECT WHAT THIS NIMROD HAS JUST WRITTEN. ' I KNOW BUHARI IS A VERY DISCIPLINED MAN AND HE INSTILLED DISCIPLINE IN NIGERIANS DURING HIS REGIME' BUT I WANT HIM TO GO. TO GO FOR WHAT ? YOU THINK SOMEONE YOUNGER WILL BRING DISCIPLINE ? IN FACT SOMEONE YOUNGER WILL BE MORE UNDISCIPLINED BECAUSE HE HAS HIS LIFE AHEAD OF HIM AND NEEDS BILLIONS OF DOLLARS TO STEAL. AS BUHARI IS, HE IS SHOOTING FOR HIS LEGACY. HE IS A MAN ON A MISSION. BUT YOU WANT SOMEONE ELSE RIGHT ? YOU GO GET THE PERSON YOU NEED NOW. JUST DONT COME ON NAIRALAND CRYING AS YOU DO EVERYDAY. LISTEN, AGE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH POLITICS, IN A COUNTRY LIKE NIGERIA THE MOST DISCIPLINED PERSON, IRRESPECTIVE OF AGE IS WHO IS NEEDED. HAVING SAID ALL THAT, THESE ARE JUST OPINIONS. NIGERIA AS A COUNTRY WILL NEVER GET BETTER AND WILL CEASE TO EXIST AFTER ARMAGEDDON WW3. AFTER WW3 THERE WILL BE NO SUCH THING AS NIGERIA. MOST OF THE PEOPLE IN IT WOULD BE DESTROYED ( TWO THIRDS ) AND THE ONES WHO MAKE IT WILL BE RELOCATED BACK TO ISRAEL WHERE THEY BELONG. AND THE HAUSAS AND FULANIS WHO ARE THE REAL AFRICANS ( HAMITIC STOCK ) WILL TAKE COMPLETE CONTROL OF THAT REGION AGAIN. <<<< BIBLICAL PROPHESY

keep dreaming,the west will never ever allow you to divide nigeria simple.go and do your maths

Toktee: The idiot from a coup plotting family trying to gain relavance in nigeria,i said it before nobody know this foo.l in niger state,and i want him to know that buhari won niger state during last election and he will win again

i like the general,he is my political role model,but he should allow somebody else to do the job with his support

even with out buhari ,im not going to vote pdp again in my live.16years is enough

this country is too corrupt to have her,her world bank ways of managing economy will not work in nigeria,our economy is not fiscalized,we don´t know the number of citizens we have,so how can her economic ideas help my mother in the village sell her peper to our cities??stop goverment corruption, every other thing will fall in place

automaticcarzz: Exactly! That's my point. Some people have made some muslims so uncomfortable to the extent they are skeptical of helping the govt. Talking from criminological standpoint, fighting Boko boys should have been a collective effort (community policing).

you are not helping govt,you help the lives of your follow nigerians.not govt

the federal government should make a live insurance to those youths who are giving their lives to save us from boko haram,
as usual somebody at the top will be collecting money for the youths for his personal gain

RedBenson: My anger over light situation in this country is getting furious everyday. Am just getting more annoyed by the day. If we are given the grace to light for 30mins, in consequential order, we would be in darkness for 18hrs. After then, here comes another light for 20mins and darkness again for 22hrs. A friend of mine who works in a fast food joint lamented how his firm spends over 300k to run thier generators monthly. Small businesses can not survive this and yet our clueless 'govt' seeks foreign investors into the country. No point talking much as all of us are aware of the situation.

My point is that, at times in life, one need to show readiness to die if he must live.

Revolution is at present eminent in this country. We need it if we must have a change.

1) Think of what will happen if we, the masses severely protest against the use of generators in government houses, offices and parastatals?



2) What about protesting against generator importations?

3) What about protesting against fuel importatn?
*brb*

nigerians with our stong conservative guilible way of live,can we protest for our rights??i doubt, we have a long way to go

Princessmel: All of you saying no, why not? What If they promise never to do it again? Or maybe they even cheated to provide for you from alhaji?

Correct Me If I Am Right By Rudolf Okonkwo


You come to America, young and dashing, on full scholarship, finish school, get a great job, marry a glamorous spouse, have cute children, and retire at a young age with a great pension, portfolio and posture.

…And live happily ever after. Yes champ; rub it in.

For the rest of you, life abroad is a crest of trajectories.

You come into America, by air, by sea, or via a midnight sneak-in across the Mexican border; fooling the Minute Men and Lou Dobbs all at once. You come to school, to join your spouse, to work after winning the Green Card Lottery, or to raise your hand at the airport and claim persecution in your own country because you are a Mormon as well as a leader in MEND.

You behold America the beautiful. The triple-decker burgers and the giant cup of coke and cars that are wider than your village road and you wonder what took you so long to get here. You get on with schooling. For now any cheap school will do. You study the things people who came before you say brings money – the things Americans do not want to study- to prepare you for the job Americans do not want to do. You hear nursing, bloody, nursing. You say, bring it on. You get on with marriage - the convenience marriage- discovering that you married three persons at once; the person you thought you married, the person your spouse really is and the person your spouse becomes because you got married in this America. For work, you do anything for a dollar; fast food restaurant, drive a cab, guard the parking lot of company executives younger than you, even care for the disabled, breaking your back to pay the bills.

Then reality hits. The dollar is not adding up. There’s more going out than coming in. Time is running. Letters, emails and phone calls are enveloping you from home. School is done; where is the job? Your accent is a problem. Racism is real. You’re finally squeezed in. Corporate job at last. Work place politics really sucks. Meanwhile, the American spouse is gone but your residency is established. Now where do you find someone to marry for real? A Blind date? E-harmony.com? Town conventions? What of picking up someone from your village? But these are all packages which content you cannot ascertain. Somehow, you settle with one. Honeymoon over, now what is the state of the marriage? First mission accomplished, now what next?

You start a house in your village. A big house. You sink in any money you can get. Some of it goes to the house but most of it goes to your family member who is supervising the construction. It costs more than it will to buy a comparable house in America. You afraid to calculate how many days you will sleep in this house in your life time. You say, Tufiakwa. It will not be your portion. You need to do it not just because everyone is doing it – your daddy is demanding it. He’s asking you to wipe away the shame on the family’s face.

Your daddy dies. Your dentist extracts a tooth.

Then America begins to reveal itself quietly. Oh tribalism again; discrimination at the work place. Your head touches the virtual ceiling for immigrants. You now understand affirmative action. Kids come but housemaids are tagged slavery, who will care for them? Now you have day care, mortgage, after school sport activities, mid-life career crisis, more phone calls from home, and marital problems. If only some of these can wait. You can call marital problems by its real name- money problems entangled with control problems, decision making disagreements, tasks and privileges, status problems and in-law problems. Maybe you will stay home with the kids. Maybe your mother will come and help … and incense your spouse.

With caning banished, you raise teens with your hands tied to your back. Marital problems persist because as your fortune falls that of your spouse rises. You have done your calculation. Something has to give. You try selling real estate. You prepare taxes. You sell insurance. You run out of contacts. You buy cars from the auction and ship them home. You get duped by friends and family. Nothing is adding up. Fast insurance fraud deals? You try other businesses on the side, but total dedication is needed. You quit your job entirely and start a business. Cleaning business. Staffing business. Medical equipment. Home Health business. Escort service. Oh, these taxes, running costs, government paper works and lack of patronage by your own people.

Marital problems persist. You wish you had married the lover you left in Nigeria to come to America. You take the divorce option. Half of your wealth is wiped out. Now rages the battle for visitation rights, alimony and child support. You’re estranged from the kids because of the stories your spouse made up against you to win custody. But you keep paying up. You have no option. You start afresh. A new apartment. Maybe a new spouse? No, that can wait. Your classmate at home becomes the CEO of a multinational company. A chieftaincy title follows and you wonder what happened to you.

You consider a fast 419 advance fee fraud deal. You remember those acquaintances still doing time in US prisons. You hold off. You dream of a contract from the government at home. You write a proposal. You get in touch with an old classmate who has done well.

Home looks attractive. The people you left behind are doing better. You conveniently forget the majority who are not making ends meet. You are overwhelmed. High blood pressure is diagnosed. High cholesterol. Heart problems. Another tooth is extracted. You join the gym. You stay away from garri and farina. You join a church. You can be a pastor too, but you don’t like that lifestyle of pretending to be what you’re not. Life is no more fun. You go home, dabble in business, in politics, in entertainment.

You are burnt. You return. You start afresh.

No, you won't take the divorce option. You will manage. You will live like roommates, until the kids are grown and are out of the house. You will wait for retirement. You need just ten more years. At 56, with social security plus pension pay and 401K, you can go to the village, if kidnappers permit, and enjoy your old age. And start afresh. Maybe marry anew. Maybe teach in a college in Nigeria. Yeah! You register for a PhD with an online college.

Your Mummy dies. Your dentist extracts another tooth. Your doctor suggests knee and hip replacement. Your shrink prescribes Prozac.

In spite of your wahala, the children grow. The girls do well in school. The boys go from four-year colleges to two- year colleges, in between gang membership and police troubles. The boys marry White girls. The girls marry African-Americans. You’re glad the girls did not get pregnant out of wedlock. You thank God the boys did not throw a coming out party to announce that they are gay. One lives in Arizona and another in Hawaii. Your house is empty, calls come on holidays only.

It is now time to really go home. But what about managing the diabetes? Do you trust the doctors at home to handle your dialysis? Your medication cocktail will be hard to find at home. Daddy and Mummy are dead. You have to make new friends again. The ones you used to have are now strangers to you. Your spouse refuses to go with you. Spouse cannot deal with the sound of electric generators, untreated well water, Afor Igwe meat without an FDA inspection tag.

You retire. You sell the big house and move into a small condo. When you cannot wipe your behind, you go from the condo to a nursing home. Your children are too busy to have you share their homes. They visit every presidential election year. Once again, you think of going home but no, it is rather too late for that. The twelfth tooth is gone. You now take more pills than the teeth in your mouth.

So you stay until your autopsy is ready. Your townsfolk contribute money to ship you home. As your coffin lands in Lagos, your relations who have gathered to receive you for the last time mutter in between breaths, Tufiakwa. Yes, the same tufiakwa that you said the time you read the article called ‘This American Life’.

Oh, about your kids, well, some of them went home with your body. Those few times you cleaned your bank account to take them home paid off. They watch as sand lands on your coffin. One even remembered how to say, ‘Kedu’. They leave soon after. They will come back one more time – when they accompany your ex on the final journey home.

shamson: gej is not sectional leader but he granted the niger delta militant military power to patrol the water ways which our navy will have effectively done and back them wit over six billion naira.

thats the reason why we from the region don´t like him,buhari should not do the same

jjcbuthot: How is he tribalistic? You are the tribalistic ones who doesnt want to hear anything Hausas or north despite the hausas being more accommodating to other people than your tribe. How many ibos are in the north compared to other tribes in your region? Tell me...

Go and check Buhari's cabinet members when he was head of state, PTF chairperson, etc.

The same man you are accusing of tribalism didnt forgive Maitasini when the later was killing people in the north. His government identified him and he was killed with NO civilian casualty.

The same way some us belief Odi invasion by soldiers was unnecessary. And I am sure you were opposed to Odi invasion because you are from that region. Tell yourself how Godly you are if you oppose Odi invasion and you support emergency rule in the north.

emergency rule in 3 northern states is to fight boko haram,not all of the northern states,or are you in support of boko haram??

buhari i have always supported you,but yesterday your message on boko haram was not good enough.

Billyonaire: So you believe that 60% of Nigerians live below a dollar ? A dollar is 160 Naira at most remember, and conductors earn 5000 naira per day, Okada riders make average of 8,000 naira per day. In my village, my gradnmom pays labourers 2,500 naira per day's job. The cleaners are paid 15,000 naira per month (divide by 30). And these happens to be the poor bracket, yet none earns less than 160 naira per day. I want to also tell you this fact. That 1000 naira has more value in USA than in Nigeria. Houses are cheaper in USA than in Nigeria. Hotel accomodations are cheaper in USA than Nigeria. etc etc etc.

Learn to read and travel, and you will realize that you have been f00led all along by those who throw figures around. American girls bleach their skins more than Nigerians. The whites use more fading agents than blacks. if you doubt me, ask dermatologists.

http://www.nationaldailyng.com/transportation/nigerians-spends-375bn-on-private-jets


WEALTHY Nigerians own over 150 jets worth about $3.75 billion, the Managing Director of Guaranty Trust Bank, Mr. Olusegun Agbaje, said on Tuesday, as disquiet over secrecy on private jet business in Nigeria continues to reverberate. Agbaje’s figure is almost twice the 71 private jets earlier disclosed by Nigerian aviation authorities. The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority, NCAA, had last year rejected a figure by Forbes Magazine that there were over 150 jets in Nigeria and insisted that there were only 71 private jets operating in the country with only ten of them registered in Nigeria.
He made this disclosure at the Nigerian Business Aviation Conference 2013 and was quoted as saying that the favorite jets among rich Nigerians are Gulfstream, Bombardier, Global Express, Hawker Legacy and Dassault Falcon. He said each category of jet costs $25m.
Most of the jets, he said, are brought in from the United States of America, Canada, Europe, Brazil and South Africa. Agbaje said Nigeria provides a huge opportunity for development in aircraft manufacturing industry but risks factors associated with commercial aviation in Nigeria are a big deterrent.
Speakers at the events include the International Sales Manager, Trevor Esling, the Vice-President, Sales and Marketing, Embraer Aircraft Manufacturing Company, Colin Stevens, among others expressed optimism about the Nigerian aviation industry.
He however affirmed that if the government wants to go the way of concessionsing of the airports out to the private sector, it should put a proper framework in place which is subject to the approval of the national assembly.
"If government have decided that they will go via concession then, government should move to put the framework in place and the framework, putting them in place will require tremendous contribution from the national assembly because they are legislative framework, most of the framework will have to pass through the national assembly for them to be in place because when an investor comes this are the first things he will look out for.
He will look out for the type of policy, he will look at the laws as approved by the legislature and he will look at other things in place, regulatory framework, how his rights are protected because they have to be laws that will protect your investment so everybody will be involve but the decision for concessioning is executive decision and if they decides that concessioning is what they want, the executive should move to put the framework in place.
He further stated that it is the responsibility of the executive because the executive owns the airport, so they should it and allow the framework to go to the national assembly so it will become an act. If you are a foreign investor and you come to Nigeria to enter into an agreement you will ask that, that agreement should be justifiable in Nigeria and in your country and so even when you start having problem in Nigeria, you can challenge it in your country" he said.
He said that most of the concession agreement entered into with FAAN were not initiated by FAAN but rather FAAN was force to append its signature on those concession agreements adding that it was an initiative of the presidency of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo to impose the concession agreement of the Build Operate and Transfer (BOT) of the Murtala Muhammed Airport, Terminal 2 (MMA2) to Bi-Courtney on FAAN as FAAN was dragged into it to append it signatures.
"Legalism will not solve the problem, going in and out of court will not solve it, what they should do is to drop their legal gown and sit down as business people because airport is a business, it is no longer public service thing because the Aviation Minister Princes Stella Oduah has shown us that aviation is a business, so aviation is business and the very moment we realize that and we sit down to discuss that as people legalism will not solve it, you can go in and out of court but when you are battling with government and when there are obvious mistakes all that you need to do is let's sit down and talk because that is the only solution." Aligbe advised.
Asked why none of the airports in Nigeria was rated recently by Skytrax world airline and airport rating in the world, he said" how can our airports be listed, we have been living in decadence and what the minister is doing is just remodeling of the airports, for you to be rated your international airports must be world class, it is the international airports that are rated and as you know work is still going on at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos even when she finishes, I don't expect it to be rated"
“Airports that are rated across the world are brand new airports and as you know government has entered an agreement with the Chinese to build five new airports and it is only when they do that, that we might say whether we have chances to be rated, for now we don't have any airport that can be rated, she cannot recreate the modern standard of the airport by mere remodeling them. Go and look at brand new airport being built, go to Dubai, go to UK, Terminal 5, they want to build Terminal 2 in Heathrow these are global airports we are talking about where investment runs up to 10billion pounds and 5billion pounds respectively" he added.

CBN Governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi (left); Maryam Waisu Yaro (right)

Twenty minutes to midnight on February 25, 2013, and a day before the board of the Central Bank of Nigeria was due to meet, Governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi developed a craving for romance—he badly needed a kiss.

The governor, married with children, grabbed his mobile phone and typed out a message. “Maybe you should come kiss me before board meeting tomorrow,” Mr. Sanusi wrote and then squeezed the send button.

At about 9 a.m. the next day, Mrs. Maryam Yaro, a married mother of two, an assistant director and subordinate to the governor at the CBN, arrived at Sanusi’s unnamed Abuja hotel, seeking to keep the date and help address his boss’ craving for a kiss. (Insiders say board members, including those who live in Abuja, are usually lodged in hotels ahead of board meetings).

But by the time Mrs. Yaro left the hotel to return to her official desk at the CBN, the duo had also struck out an arrangement to spend the rest of the week together in Lagos.

So, in the evening of Wednesday February 27, Mrs. Yaro flew to Lagos ahead of Mr. Sanusi and checked into a hotel in the city, skipping work, at taxpayers’ expenses, on Thursday February 28 and Friday, March 1.

To keep faith with Mrs. Yaro’s date, the CBN governor arrived Lagos, travelling on a chartered flight, on the night of February 28, and checked into the Federal Palace Hotel, passage and boarding all at taxpayers expenses.

Both Mr. Sanusi and Mrs. Yaro rendezvoused in the hotel till Sunday when both of them returned to Abuja, PREMIUM TIMES learnt.

“…I had such a wonderful weekend,” Mrs. Yaro confessed to the governor while aboard her Abuja-bound flight. “You have revived in me what I thought I lost long ago. I thought I lost the passion to love again,” she claimed.

“Alhamdulillahi. Love you,” Mr. Sanusi responded in a measured tone.

Insiders say repeated violation of the statutory code of conduct for public office holders such as hiring his girlfriends and mistresses without complying with public service rules, dating married and unmarried women within the bank, and flirting with them during official work hours have become defining characters of Mr. Sanusi’s governorship of the central bank.

An official of the bank spoke of how Mr. Sanusi had enthroned nepotism at the bank, arbitrarily hiring girlfriends and relatives and engaging in extramarital relationships with staff.

“This man (the CBN governor) is the most morally bankrupt governor the CBN has ever had,” the official, who did not want to be named for fear of retribution, told PREMIUM TIMES. “Forget all the pretences, he is a shameless man of loose character.”

Investigations by this newspaper revealed that Mr. Lamido hired his latest mistress, Mrs. Yaro, without complying with the CBN recruitment policy that stressed, “all appointments shall be made on the basis of merit, through a fair and open selection process.”

“The principles underlying the recruitment process are those of fairness, credibility, equal employment opportunities, merit and optimization of career prospects for currently employed staff,” the bank said on its website.

But Mrs. Yaro, insiders say, was hired in July 2012 without adherence to these principles. Those who should know say Mrs. Yaro, who was a staff at the National Programme on Food Security, an agency under the Federal Ministry of Agriculture, was brought into the bank as assistant director without “advert for the vacancy and after a kangaroo interview.”

When contacted, Mr. Sanusi said due process was followed in hiring Mrs. Yaro.

He said having worked for years in the ministry of agric, Mrs Yaro came highly recommended and qualified for the job for which she was hired.

The CBN governor continued, “I have known Dr Yaro since 1981. She was my student in Yola and she later came to ABU Zaria. We have been very good friends but this is not why NIRSAL took her. You may wish to check her CV against all the other CVs in NIRSAL. And she did go through an interview process with the NIRSAL CEO making the decision not CBN HR.

“As for the personal allegations, this is all strange to me but I have a personal policy of not responding to such allegations since in Nigeria anything can be published on any public officer without proof. I have limited myself to what concerns official allegations and leave you to your God and your conscience on whatever else you want to publish. Thank you for telling me though.”

Mrs Yaro however declined comments when contacted by PREMIUM TIMES.

“Be careful what you are saying,” she told one of our reporters on the telephone. “I have nothing to comment to you on anything.”

When asked if she would be willing to respond to specific questions about her trips to Lagos to keep dates with Mr. Sanusi, she simply said, “Whatever it is, I don’t know. Will you just let me be?”

But our investigations revealed that the governor’s claim was far from accurate. Through several interviews and review of records, PREMIUM TIMES was able to determine that Mrs. Yaro and Mr. Sanusi had dated each other for at least six months before she was hired.

Insiders say Mr. Sanusi repeatedly pestered the human resource department of the bank ordering it to bring Mrs. Yaro’s application to him for approval. And once the file reached his table, the governor wasted no time in treating it.

On June 25, 2012, Mr. Sanusi, who was travelling in South Africa at the time, telephoned Mrs. Yaro to break the news to her that he had approved her recruitment in what critics consider a clear conflict of interest and a violation of a provision of Nigeria’s Code of Conduct which stipulates that “a public officer shall not put himself in a position where his interest conflicts with his duties and responsibilities.”

Mrs. Yaro, (whose businessman husband, Ahmed, is largely based in Kaduna but visits Abuja regularly) assumed duties at the CBN in the first week of September 2012 and was deployed to the Development Finance Department.

The department then put her in charge of the bank’s Nigerian Incentive-Based Risk Sharing System For Agricultural Lending, (NIRSAL), a unit that attempts to fix the agricultural value chain, so that banks can lend with confidence to the sector and, encourages banks to lend to the agricultural value chain by offering them strong incentives and technical assistance.

Sources said Mrs. Yaro married Ahmed (or Shuaib, according to another source) six years ago after her first husband, Waisu Yaro Bodinga (then an executive director at the Nigeria Ports Authority) died in the ill-fated ADC plane crash of 2006.

The romance between Mrs. Yaro and Mr. Sanusi became even hotter after she began work at the bank, with the two lovers regularly exchanging telephone calls and text messages during work hours to profess love for each other.

At times, Mrs. Yaro would remain in her office far beyond close of work to enable her to keep appointments with the CBN governor, records show.

Sometimes, Mrs. Yaro would raise concerns about Mr. Sanusi’s other girlfriends and mistresses (such as Sutura and Rose) and how they were blocking her from getting the governor’s full attention, but the relationship continued nonetheless.

Mrs. Yaro also began to have access to confidential information known only to top management and board of the bank, insiders say.

At a point, one source said, she began to strategise to corner contracts for one Goke Akinboro, the Chief Executive Officer of Lagos-based Cellullant Limited, an information technology company. Mr. Akinboro is also described as “very close” to Mrs Yaro.

On March 15, 2013, the CBN lovers headed to Lagos again for another weekend of fun. The initial plan was for the duo to fly to the nation’s commercial capital on Saturday, March 16, returning to Abuja on Sunday. But the trip had to be brought forward by a day after the lovers realized that the Area Council election in Abuja was holding that Saturday and that movement might be restricted.

Mrs. Yaro arrived Lagos on the night of March 15, and immediately checked into the Radisson Blu Anchorage Hotel on Victoria Island. Mr. Sanusi flew from Kano to Lagos via chartered jet on the bills of the Nigerian taxpayers. He arrived at about 11 p.m., stopped by his Ikoyi home, before dashing to the hotel where Mrs. Yaro was waiting in a seductive dress in Room 23. The lovers spent that night and the next day together in the hotel.

As he flew into Abuja March 17 on a chartered jet, Mr. Sanusi sent a message to Mrs. Yaro saying, “Love. Just landed in Abuja. Thank you for a wonderful weekend.” Mrs. Yaro replied, “Alhamdulillah. I had a wonderful weekend too. I am able to get the 3:15 flight on Arik Air. Love you.”

But in-between these rendezvous in Lagos, Mr. Sanusi and Mrs Yaro also found time to get together elsewhere. They were to meet on March 11, 2013, in Makurdi but somehow Mrs Yaro could not make it to the Benue State capital. But earlier on February 14, (Valentine’s Day), the lovers had a good time together in Maiduguri. Although, the two of them travelled to the city on different missions, they somehow found a way to get together.

At a point, Mrs Yaro voiced open frustration when Mr. Lamido delayed in taking her calls as she tried, frantically, to track him down. “I’m thinking that one Shuwa girl has snatched you away from me,” Mrs. Yaro wrote in a message. “I don’t trust them (Maiduguri girls) with you.”

A velvet-ranking figure within Nigeria’s economic and political circles, Mr. Sanusi, is generally perceived as one of the intellectual anchors and moral conscience of this administration. When his five-year term expires next year, he has indicated he would not renew his contract. Mr. Sanusi has a well-advertised ambition to become the future emir of his native Kano, where he is already a top chieftaincy holder (Dan Maje Kano). Dan Majen Kano, a historic title, which means Son of Emir-Maje, is reserved for the royal family members from the Kano Habe dynasty.

A zigzag prospect to run for the Nigerian presidency is also believed to be floating in the horizon for Mr. Sanusi.

Multiple sources at both the CBN and First Bank, where Mr. Sanusi was managing director before his appointment to the central bank, describe the governor as an “incurable womanizer.”

“This guy seems unable to resist anything in skirt, and it is unfortunate that a lot of young people look up to him as an example,” one of Mr. Sanusi’s aides in Abuja said, expressing widely held concerns in banking circles that “It is sad that he wouldn’t even let married women be.”

Mr. Sanusi, 51, appointed CBN Governor on June 3 2009, is a smart economist and award-winning banker with a background in risk management.

He holds a graduate degree in economics from the Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria and a diploma in Sharia and Islamic Studies from the African International University in Khartoum, Sudan. Today, Mr. Sanusi is also commonly regarded as an important voice in Islamic jurisprudence.

The Banker, the UK-based financial magazine honoured him in 2010 as global Central Bank Governor of the Year as well as African Central Bank Governor of the Year. In 2011, the TIME magazine listed Mr. Sanusi in its annual publication of 100 most influential people.

At the African Banker Awards gala dinner held Wednesday in Morocco, Mr. Sanusi also emerged the “2013 Africa Central Bank Governor of the Year.”

“There is no doubt that he is a fairly effective banker,” an official of one of Nigeria’s leading banks, who requested anonymity for fear his bank might be targeted, told PREMIUM TIMES. “But he is a man of zero morality despite his public posturing. It is really sad.”
