President Goodluck Jonathan has nominated Godwin Emefiele to be the new Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria.
This is following the suspension of Sanusi Lamido from his position as the Governor of Nigeria’s apex bank.
Dr. Sarah Alade had been installed as the Acting Governor and speculations in the public domain were that Alade would become the new Governor.
Also, the President has nominated Adelabu Adekoya to become the new Deputy Governor of the Central Bank.
Emefiele is the Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer at Zenith Bank Plc.
Both names have been forwarded to the Senate for screening and approval.
