You are talking as if he just left a Mechanic Workshop to become the CBN Governor just because his background is mechanical engineering... Error!

He has always been a banker and rose to become a deputy governor of the apex bank... you can have any degree as a foundation and become an expert in ANY PROFESSION.

Emefiele wey study banking and finance wetin him do for Nigeria?
and this idiot, aside from being a Yoruba man what else is the reason for his appointment.

He is the next in line to suspended Mr Emefiele. Do you want Mr Emefiele to hand over to the man at the security gate of CBN ni? This is the rule , your next in line steps in until substantive appointee is selected.
Phahahahahahahahaha

You have power to reply dullards who can't read. They were quick to see he's a mechanical engineer but didn't see he has a double masters in both mechanical engineer and BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION. They didn't see his other qualifications, work experience and past offices held. Truly I commend your patience 💯
GeneralPula:
Sure..

FG is yet to make CBN appointment. He’s just the acting CBN because he’s the next in life!

Tinubu will announce CBN Governor in due time..
He’s neither next in line nor “next in life”… cheesy

He was appointed Deputy Governor in October 2018…
While Aisha Ahmad was EARLIER appointed Deputy Governor in March 2018.

What is intimidating about a master degree holder I am also a mechanical engineer with MBA and I know I'm no were qualified to be CBN governor

Nigeria CBN governor should be at least a PhD holder with 10 years spent in practice as an internal monitory regulating agency exacutive
You are not qualified because of two things:
1) Envy and hatred
2) You don't have the requisite experience.

Many of my university mates that we studied engineering together are doing very well in the banking sector, So have a Mechanical engineer as acting CBN governor is very much in order.

Isn't it pathetic that someone with a bachelors in mechanical engineering and an MBA is the one trying to pull down another Mechanical engineering graduate in the banking sector

I know what I'm talking about because I also have a Bachelors and Masters in Electrical and Telecommunications engineering respectively.

One thing I am beginning to notice in this administration is that,educated ones would be highly favored and gone are the days when going to school was regarded as a scam.

School isn't a scam after all.

School is meant to enlighten and widen our thinking scope. What we do with what we've gained from schooling is up to us.

Engineer can do well in micro economics ,basic macro economics

Even with my MBA I know too well not to dive into a position that has to do with macro economics for developing economy especially policy formulation and implementation

It's like asking a nurse to carry out neurosurgery operations because they have 30 years experience in nursing when we have neurosurgeons with 10 years experience

A mediocre who will jeopardize the economic gains of CBN over the years. Leave finance and economy in the hands of Delta and Edo State and probably some states in the southeast.

Wasn't Emefiele from Delta and what did he accomplish?

Is that only what you saw, 30 years in bank with mba
plaindealer:
2 Masters degree, one in business admin which you ignorantly skipped, you also skipped the extensive knowledge and resume in the banking and financial sector.

You are Nigeria's biggest problem because all you see is tribalism and not qualifications and competence, you are a dull knife.

While I somewhat enjoy taking the piss and winding some folks up on this thread (primarily because if Buhari had made a similar appointment of his ethnic kinsman, many of them would lead/join the charge of “tribalism”), I could care less about this dude’s ethnicity. Nonetheless, let’s engage in SERIOUS, FRANK AND HONEST DISCOURSE.

First, the dude was NOT “next in line” to the ousted (or suspended) CBN Governor, and thus all of the “next in line” argument, as if the dude is merely an administrative placeholder, is frankly BS! There are at least 2 other Deputy Governors AHEAD of this dude (including 1 who often represents the CBN in the absence of the Governor), and thus it is rational to assume that this dude was appointed for more than just administrative continuity. Of course, what those other reasons may be is anyone’s guess here on NL, but in the absence of such information we cannot really blame those who choose to speculate (particularly based on the Buhari and general Nigerian antecedents and experience).

Perhaps more importantly, when one sees statements such as (and pardon any paraphrases) “the man is qualified” or ”he’s the right man for the job” or “he’s has an MBA and 30 years experience of working in banks”, one is frankly left bemused. First, NOT EVERYONE WHO WORKS/WORKED IN A BANK IS A “BANKER”! And, in this particular case, apart from arguably a couple of years very early in his career in “Treasury Operations” (which could well mean merely managing platforms) about 30 years ago (ending in 1993), this dude has been in IT virtually throughout his ENTIRE employment in various banks! Even the NIBSS, where he was MD/CEO prior to joining the CBN, is merely a settlement platform (NOT core banking).

Accordingly, the question would be what exactly is this dude purportedly “well qualified” for? At first blush, and quite frankly by any rational metrics, it would be a hard sell to posit that he is “well qualified” or “eminently qualified” (as some others have proclaimed) to be a central bank governor - and to be honest, I didn’t think Mr. Emefiele was “eminently” qualified either nor as it turned out a particularly good central bank governor. Nevertheless, since this is at this particular point in time supposedly merely an INTERIM appointment, we can only hope that the dude would not do anything disastrous, pending the appointment of a substantive CBN Governor who (as some others have proffered on this thread) should ideally have an Economics background or grounding.

GOOD LUCK TO US ALL…
The appointment of a CBN Governor is not one to be handled as if a civil service appointment (or worse, patronage).

U guess you didnt read the article or you just want to be mischievous? Go back to the original story look at this quoted part "Shonubi holds double Masters Degree respectively in Business Administration and Mechanical Engineering, from University of Lagos."

Double masters degree in BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION before mechanical engineering

An MBA is NOT automatically a banking degree (neither is a degree synonymous with expertise)…
Reality is dude has been virtually exclusively in IT in ALL the banks he’s worked in over the last 30 years.

And do you think that woman have as much experience as this Mr Shonubi, I'm sure this woman must be a baby when Mr Shonubi started his banking career, and that's apart from the fact that CBN governor came from the north in the person of shanusi, and also from the south east in the person of emefailure, it makes sense to have a Yoruba person there now.
