The Presidency has
refuted social media reports that the tenures of Emir of Kano, Muhammadu
Sanusi II and Prof. Charles Soludo, as Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)
governors, would soon be probed by the Federal Government.
The reports alleged
that the Federal Government had concluded arrangements to probe the
tenures of the two former CBN governors over their views on the state of
the economy.
Malam Garba Shehu,
the Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity to President
Muhammadu Buhari, however, in a tweeted message, said the presidency was
not aware that the Emir and Soludo would be probed for offering
suggestions to the president.
“The check I made
today indicated that the presidency is unaware of the reported probe of
Sarkin Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi 11 and Prof.Soludo
“Where did that
report come from? Under our constitution which President Muhammadu
Buhari swore to uphold, it is not a crime to offer suggestions,’’ he
said.
