This man is my role model, he's the kinda guy youth should look up for the things he accomplished.! Mr.Sanusi, you are our hero & God's always going to be with you
As a Cameroonian who like many Africans has been following this man's activities with for quite some times, I have no doubt he is one of the finest, sharpest and intelligent economists and monetary policy makers of his generation not only on the continent but surely in the world. Honest Nigerian sisters and brothers should take a bolt step to seek out for the truth and enforce the rule of law. Like the courageous journalist did.
This man is a HERO, even though the presidency is really CORRUPT!!. please guys lets share this video so more and more Nigerians can know and listen to this interview.Lets prevent the presidency,especially, Mr. Abati, from spreading wrong information about this man. one love guyz
I have always said the first day i listen to this man doing a presentation in front of international community in the UK that SANUSI/ FASHOLA 16 yrs will make Nigeria the best country in Africa and a second world. Unfortunately many of us are blinded by religion and region.
I just said the same thing to a friend about an hour ago. A team of SLS and Fashola is what Nigeria needs....At this moment I dont care if the next leader comes from Togo as long has he has the masses at heart.......I don't live in Nigeria anymore but Nigerian News is a cause of distress to me daily
Basically, PDP needs alot of money to tackle APC. GEJ, as president, has access to public funds. Hence, at least $20b is missing and alot of stories follow. Sanusi must have been called by the presidency to forget the issue but as an intelligent man and a professional (not politician, for now), he would have said "no" to "them." "Best advice" given to GEJ by his so - called advisers was to remove him to reduce the noise about missing $20b fund....Hope everyone is seeing what is really going on here. Sanusi has explained how he contributed to the nation's reserve in about 10 times what it used to be. Let GEJ disproof that. God bless you Sanusi and God bless the federal republic of Nigeria!
Saying goodluck ebele joe is not corrupt is just like saying lawrence anini was never an armed robber. Yes the president has the prerogative of mercy but why would alamieyeseigha be pardoned while Sanusi be punished openly for open up the mess under his nose, at any rate whatever anyone might like to tagged it? SO SAD! And i say thanks to President jonathan and his supporters for making SLS HERO of our time!
I am angry, but Goodluck is indeed a bad Luck, the worst president ever...... very dump with no regard for the Law of the land. He is not fit to be a president, this is a man that vowed to defend the law of the land, He does not even know the law, he wants to make degrees as if we are still in military regime, what a shame.
Nigerians should demand to know more, we deserve more, people should not keep things under the carpet any longer. Its time to speak up!!! change is coming gradually..... Sanusi well done, Please expose them!!!!
This man is my role model, he's the kind of guy youth should look up to for the things he accomplished.! Mr.Sanusi you are our hero & God's always going to be with you
There aren’t many Nigerians like this man. He’s intelligent, articulate, honest and fearless. I’ve never seen a Nigerian public official trying to fight corruption. The popular phrase is “If you can’t beat them join them” but not this man. I have seen a couple of his interviews and discussions on youtube and I think he’s he really knows his onions. I however like him more for his guts. I think suspending him when he only has less than 4 months to go was a dump move.
Olusoji Hassan: That is not true…there ARE many Nigerians like him. Unfortunately not in government. Most of them have left the country to use their talents in other people's countries. Nigeria not only wastes money, it wastes human capital and that is the worst of it's tragedies.
This man exhibits the quality and character of the leader that Nigeria desperately need to uncuff it from the strong hold of nepotilistic, tribalistic, self-serving, and shameless super corrupt leaders that have ruled over the country within the last two decades. He is clearly fearless and carry with him a sense of apparent integrity. Proud to know Sanusi's type still exist.
This man is my role model, he's the kinda guy youth should look up to for the things he accomplished! Mr.Sanusi, you are our hero & God's always going to be with you & i wish you will
Mike Adejuwon excellent point bringing up "Alaye-mu-cigar" and his presidential pardon. Whenever I say Nigeria may not get there ever as optimistic as I am, people are quick to label me with two horns and a tail
This guy is my new hero in Africa, 20 more like him in Africa, we ll soon start seeing progression in the continent. And that amateur reporter, when asking questions to your interviewee, use the Mic, as you ask your questions, we don't hear non of your questions.
Honestly I'm impressed with the responses(comments) on this video. Why are we nigerians so blind (No offence, I'm a nigerian too). This is to show you how corrupt our government is, sacking the honest ones and supporting the corrupt. Please stand up Naija.. One Love!
Wow , I can't believe Sanusi was removed , I am not nigerian but I like the guy , shame on the Thief in Chief called Jonathan Goodlock or whatever his name is
GEJ has a good case against SLS ,he should have followed due process (National Assembly ) instead of the court embarrassing his office cos the suspension will be reversed by the court of law.
sequence solution So I take it you were satisfied with how the banking system used to run. Bank CEO's using your deposits for their personal benefit and frivilous purchases. Very Interesting
If the NNPC that generates almost 80% of Nigeria annual budget was last audited in 2005, says a lot about the financial recklessness that exist in Nigeria and yet GEJ is fighting corruption according to myopic Nigerians.
Bobo yen We live in the shadow of an islamized Nigera, yet thousands of Nigerians flock to Dubai every month to enjoy the sanity of an islamic city thats free of corruption. Lets not shroud the truth, the facts are simple-1. Money was missing 2. CBN governor shouted 3. CBN governor was sacked. Shikena-If anyone can disprove those points let them
Take it or leave it, for the very first time the Nigerian banks are working towards providing real frame work for economy growth through their current drive to provide support for SMES. They employ over 75% of Nigeria work force. This is happening under this man's watch when recently mopped up 75% of government funds in the commercial banks which to me was one of the key reasons most banks hardly bother about aiding the SMES when they can control most funds of a state. Before he came on board we were told that most Nigerian banks were not healthy - this both gov and the then cbn denied. But when he came we all saw how healthy they were. Even the banks am sure will tell Nigerians that they are a lot more healthier today compared to then. We most accept that to get things right there most be sacrifice. His suspension to me is purely vindictive since he chose to expose the rot embedded in the govt of today.
Change is said to be a constant factor but I don't see Nigeria changing it's ways. Whenever one is trying to create a positive change.l ,all they do is to pull the success down
Saharatv honestly, guys keep up this kind of interviews. I must confess @sowore has improved in pple relations. Keep it up guys. As for Sanusi, like he said, in naija, if you touch the oil sector, expect some backlashes
I agree with d ex gov! Why is the talk not about the misappropriation of the 20billion by nnpc?This is another effort of getting rid of any appointee not supporting the corruption in Nigeria. Unfortunately:) there goes our corruption index to the tank:(
This man is damn smart!!! He knows his job. President Goodluck shame on you for trying to tarnish his image! You have lost an important figure in your cabinet
Kudos to Sanusi Lamido for coming out to expose this scandal. Very few Nigerians are brave enough to do this. Mr. President you should be very ashamed of yourself and your cabinet. Instead of sacking the petroleum minister and NNPC officials and ordering an investigation into this matter it is Sanusi you fired. Shows that you are the biggest promoter of corruption in Nigeria. No wonder we are still where we are today. Nigerians please let us learn to see and speak the truth THAT IS THE ONLY WAY FORWARD.
I think after this Reno need no more raising any dust again, Sowore is not a saint we knew but his integrity is second to none in Nigeria nowadays politics.
Dont be deceived and naive. You are thinking exactly what they want you to think. Be wise look back at history, and the past 39 years before accepting any presidential candidate
Mike John Out of a sea of comments here, there is only but a few that makes sense. I can perfectly understand the anger of most Nigerians, but clearly judging by the reaction to this "interview" we are playing into the hands of the enemy. It is sad, very sad !
is that the bone of contention. this is a serious issue and the standing position shows that. are you not irritated at the rubish going on with the gej administration?
adesuwa ujiadughele you didnt answer the question.The journalist should be professional in his job and that includes comporting himself well and giving us the other side of the story.We have only heard Sanusi's story here.Amsure there are enough seats in that room for him to sit rather than act like he is before some demi-god.
It's still not too late to fix Nigeria. It's just going to need honesty. In Nigeria!!!!!!! Impossible. A wasted chance to build a nation has gone with the wind. So so so sad.
I can't really understand why a Doctor who discovered a cancer in the Nigerian system be sacked and what power does Jonathan has by doing that other than the one given to him by the people and Sanusi L. is one of them. AFRICAN LEADER WAY BACK BEHIND:
Now we know why there are no good roads, clean water, rail system, welfare system and development in general in our country, simple put "our natural resources are sold by a few and the money is shared amongst those few... God help Nigeria.
I just know that the removal of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is political and a gross victimization. Accurate and also precise. Jonathan should learn soundness and integrity.
We have some very competent candidates currently running for the office of the President of Nigeria, therefore team work should be encouraged greatly towards the anticipated victory. This is simply because, Nigeria has enough issues already; that requires urgent solutions. Perhaps a public debate between Sowore, Durotoye, Moghalu and other aspirants included. What do you think?
Attackis the best form of defense!! This very sound and intelligent economist just evaded the real question. He simply took the searchlight off himself and placed it on NNPC. Does that change the fact that there are unreconcilable figures in CBN's account that point to fraud and financial recklessness and total abuse of power? SANUSI IS A POSTER FIGURE OF WHAT A CBN GOVERNOR SHOULD NOT BE(HE IS JUST TOO LOUD)!!!!!
Rotimi, you sound intelligent> However you need to listen to the clip again. If its true that " there are unreconcilable figures in CBN's account that point to fraud and financial recklessness and total abuse of power", why is the Presidency acting now? The Audit was in 2013 May, this is 2014 January. Why are they reacting now that Sanusi is crying alarm over missing $20Billion? I need you to enlighten me cos I would love to know your view. Thanks Bro.
Ayodeji Olukayode thanks deji. rotimi is living in mars not earth talkless of nigeria. sls had just made us see most things a cbn governor would not have talked about only for fear or personal interest
I have listened to the clip again, kindly point out what i am missing. All i noticed is that Sanusi is joining two issues here. 1. He raised an allegation on missing revenue of which the finance minister has recommended an independent audit of the account. Why not let that rest and wait for the audit report. 2. There is a corruption allegation leveled against him, why not talk strictly based on that and sue the government if they are wrong. In response to the young man that asked why the government waited till now? This present government so far, has high regard for the rule of law and it will be only fair to give the man a chance to prove them wrong. Sanusi is fond of media verdict, he professes to know what is right and he needs to do as he preaches. He should just go to court rather than seeking sentiment from uninformed public. The government in its own maturity (knowing the sensitivity of the office he holds) gave him a chance to resign which he brags about declining. Don't you think that is a way they where trying to give him a soft landing while still investigating the allegations leveled against him? Mind you; sanusi is raising allegation of corruption against NNPC and not the Federal Government or GEJ. While the federal government is pointing all its fingers at Sanusi (and pls don't tell me that GEJ will profit directly from the corruption allegations against NNPC…. I can also argue that they can as well profit from the corruption of Sanusi ….. well, not unless SLS is being greedy by not declaring GEJ's portion of the loot, hence the exposure…. LOL. Wake up from your slumber young man and Lets not confuse these issues! If you have a rebuttal to my statements, please talk based on facts and not speculations or beer parlor gist as I HAVE WORK TO DO!
My God!. Sanusi Lamido I pray we have 20 of your type. QUESTION PLEASE: If as CEO you employ me to handle your account and along the line i happen to raise issues of fraud are you supposed to set up a team to investigate such fraud or fire me claiming I raised such issue solely to embarrass you as my CEO?
Nigerians!!! you have a replacement for 2015 now and that is SANUSI, let wake up. Sanusi to you.> Go and Register now with APC and you will get our vote. But take care of your Religious Activities, not good enough. You still have your reputation, so forget about Religion and move all Nigerians forward and be another El- Rufai!!!!
Nigeria as it is today need a president who is experience with courage to step on toes to lead the country out of PDP mess.Nigeria...a country were people operate without policy yet policy are implemented everyday.A country were the giver of the bribe is set free while d collector is sent to prison...were is that law that says both the giver and the collector are guilty.Infact eastern Nigerians people are becoming something else,they refuse to see any fault in this man called Jonathan,due to ethnic. sentiments.despite a proof that can make a deaf to hear by sanusi,even the educated ones among them still dont see anything in that.development is far away from Nigeria if we continue like this
Nigeria banking system is bad, how can someone withdraw money from bank without a working contract, if citizens of Nigeria can work in a legal way Nigeria will be great
Sanusi is a fine gentleman with good intentions. I also have same impression about Goodluck Jonathan. Unfortunately, Sanusi, should have understood that Nigerians are quick to believe anything that says govt is corrupt and in this case, consistency is important so that the country is not incited for undue troubles. The truth is that 99% of Nigerian Politicians are very very corrupt but you fight them with caution just like Sanusi have done great job fighting corrupt practices through many of his strong financial policies. You cannot fight these guyz by making unnecessary noise like Sanusi did recently. His actions are a distraction to any tactical maneuver to deal with corruption. For example, Odua bought bullet proof cars for N255m. Before that time Fashola bought his own for N300m but no noise. the question is, does our system and policy allow it? Should Jonathan be seen circumventing policies and procedures even though it was put by previous corrupt leaders for their own benefits which he may not know about? How many of us are ready to be like Sanusi in our work places? you want to supply even a pin and the procurement guyz are asking for addition, security man is asking for tips and secretary and accountants are asking for theirs. Now everybody says Jonathan is bad. My take is that these Corruption is so serious that it will require tactical strategy to handle it without upturning our economy or being bloody. The only way is the National Conference else the present Law makers cannot give us good laws.
Someone like Sanusi Lamido will help if he becomes president. Always very blunt and practical
This man is my role model, he's the kinda guy youth should look up for the things he accomplished.!
Mr.Sanusi, you are our hero & God's always going to be with you
As a Nigerian, I am very proud of this man. Fearless!
I believe this man would make a great President for Nigeria. He would have my vote...
The most intelligent man..Who thinks before taking action.
The most intelligent man..Who TALKS before THINKING you mean?
As a Cameroonian who like many Africans has been following this man's activities with for quite some times, I have no doubt he is one of the finest, sharpest and intelligent economists and monetary policy makers of his generation not only on the continent but surely in the world. Honest Nigerian sisters and brothers should take a bolt step to seek out for the truth and enforce the rule of law. Like the courageous journalist did.
This man is a HERO, even though the presidency is really CORRUPT!!. please guys lets share this video so more and more Nigerians can know and listen to this interview.Lets prevent the presidency,especially, Mr. Abati, from spreading wrong information about this man. one love guyz
I respect this MAN.
Me too
I was on a permanent high and i still don't have a low moment, not even now! That's epic!
This is a sad day for the progress of the black man everywhere! Nigerians this is where you take a stand. Please don't let this stand.
I have always said the first day i listen to this man doing a presentation in front of international community in the UK that SANUSI/ FASHOLA 16 yrs will make Nigeria the best country in Africa and a second world. Unfortunately many of us are blinded by religion and region.
I just said the same thing to a friend about an hour ago.

Lamido Sanusi for President... Of Africa. I'm ready to vote.
Saying goodluck ebele joe is not corrupt is just like saying lawrence anini was never an armed robber. Yes the president has the prerogative of mercy but why would alamieyeseigha be pardoned while Sanusi be punished openly for open up the mess under his nose, at any rate whatever anyone might like to tagged it? SO SAD! And i say thanks to President jonathan and his supporters for making SLS HERO of our time!
You are right my brother. This case of GEJ is beyond confusion. PDP needs money ahead of 2015 you know
I am angry, but Goodluck is indeed a bad Luck, the worst president ever...... very dump with no regard for the Law of the land. He is not fit to be a president, this is a man that vowed to defend the law of the land, He does not even know the law, he wants to make degrees as if we are still in military regime, what a shame.
I like this man..GEJ is stepping on toes and he will go down for it
Sanusi Lamido will always be a hero.
You can say that again
No room for Islamists in Nigeria, Sanusi and his co-travelers can go to hell.
sequence solution Sanusi attended Kings College, a Christain School. So is he an Islamist or a Chrislamist?
sequence solution o boy please stop talking. He's said before (in my presence, btw) that he's more Catholic, hence his strict leadership.
Nigerians should demand to know more, we deserve more, people should not keep things under the carpet any longer. Its time to speak up!!! change is coming gradually..... Sanusi well done, Please expose them!!!!
This man is my role model, he's the kind of guy youth should look up to for the things he accomplished.!
Mr.Sanusi you are our hero & God's always going to be with you
Honesty at its best. This guy seem very transparent but the Oga's at the top don't want him :(
There aren’t many Nigerians like this man. He’s intelligent, articulate, honest and fearless. I’ve never seen a Nigerian public official trying to fight corruption. The popular phrase is “If you can’t beat them join them” but not this man. I have seen a couple of his interviews and discussions on youtube and I think he’s he really knows his onions.

Only the clean-hearted few speaks to the power. It takes courageous man to sail against the tides. Good luck SLS.
There are very few men like him in #Nigeria , Respect sir,
This man exhibits the quality and character of the leader that Nigeria desperately need to uncuff it from the strong hold of nepotilistic, tribalistic, self-serving, and shameless super corrupt leaders that have ruled over the country within the last two decades. He is clearly fearless and carry with him a sense of apparent integrity. Proud to know Sanusi's type still exist.
This man is my role model, he's the kinda guy youth should look up to for the things he accomplished!
Mr.Sanusi, you are our hero & God's always going to be with you & i wish you will
The best Nigerian Man..most uncorrupt Nigerian
Impressive and Profound. All the best, you have the people support in whatever you do.
people like sanusi are what we need in our social life,pls for the good of nigerian,we all need you in our lifes,god& the entired people re with you.
Mike Adejuwon excellent point bringing up "Alaye-mu-cigar" and his presidential pardon. Whenever I say Nigeria may not get there ever as optimistic as I am, people are quick to label me with two horns and a tail
I'm from the Gambia but this man is my role model
brilliant honest outspoken individual
This guy is my new hero in Africa, 20 more like him in Africa, we ll soon start seeing progression in the continent. And that amateur reporter, when asking questions to your interviewee, use the Mic, as you ask your questions, we don't hear non of your questions.
#wisdom is #priceless
Honestly I'm impressed with the responses(comments) on this video. Why are we nigerians so blind (No offence, I'm a nigerian too). This is to show you how corrupt our government is, sacking the honest ones and supporting the corrupt. Please stand up Naija.. One Love!
The Nigerian President should be ashamed of himself. This man should be the president of Nigeria
Wow , I can't believe Sanusi was removed , I am not nigerian but I like the guy , shame on the Thief in Chief called Jonathan Goodlock or whatever his name is
Very atticulate and he knows what is talking about..i kind of have faith in him..he deserve to be heard..thanks Adeola..😊
It is clear that GEJ government can not go along with those who are honest and transparent.
Thought provoking and inspiring interview.
Very articulate. We are await the evidence of "financial recklessness". Where is NBA when you need them? Where are the legal eagles?
hmmmmm, "If you attack them they will deal with you" that is their way and the citizens always keep quiet.
GEJ has a good case against SLS ,he should have followed due process (National Assembly ) instead of the court embarrassing his office cos the suspension will be reversed by the court of law.
Sanusi has no business in the banking sector period. He should have been arrested and detained for a period of time for questioning.
sequence solution So I take it you were satisfied with how the banking system used to run. Bank CEO's using your deposits for their personal benefit and frivilous purchases. Very Interesting
Mr Sequence, from which planet you come from? Jupiter or Mercury?
what good case is that? pls explain
If the NNPC that generates almost 80% of Nigeria annual budget was last audited in 2005, says a lot about the financial recklessness that exist in Nigeria and yet GEJ is fighting corruption according to myopic Nigerians.
Sanusi is too honest for Goodluck's liking.Goodluck wants corrupt people who will support his corrupt system.
This man should run for presidency.
Thats the original plan, don't be fooled by his 419 method
Run for presidency? loool. you obviously can't see beyond your nose. This guy would islamize Nigeria more than Mecca if he ever smelt the presidency
Bobo yen We live in the shadow of an islamized Nigera, yet thousands of Nigerians flock to Dubai every month to enjoy the sanity of an islamic city thats free of corruption. Lets not shroud the truth, the facts are simple-1. Money was missing 2. CBN governor shouted 3. CBN governor was sacked. Shikena-If anyone can disprove those points let them
Ayodele Olatoye That was a fine response. And the questions are: Was money not missing?,
He Is Now The Emir Of Kano!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.... Yaayyyyyyyyyyyy
I see Sanusi as a pefect gentleman, its quite unfortunate!
fine gentleman. he has done a great job. the only problem i have is sanusi trying say he has no faults.
yeah! we need him for president simple!
We need people like Sanusi in this country
Just too bad and hrtlesd
I just love this great man .sanusi.honest to the core.
Take it or leave it, for the very first time the Nigerian banks are working towards providing real frame work for economy growth through their current drive to provide support for SMES.

Good Job Sowore !!!
Saharatv honestly, guys keep up this kind of interviews. I must confess @sowore has improved in pple relations. Keep it up guys.
As for Sanusi, like he said, in naija, if you touch the oil sector, expect some backlashes
Get this statement "if you touch us, we will attack you" .
I agree with d ex gov! Why is the talk not about the misappropriation of the 20billion by nnpc?This is another effort of getting rid of any appointee not supporting the corruption in Nigeria. Unfortunately:) there goes our corruption index to the tank:(

Sanusi would turn this country around for the better were he made the President. He's most honest and selfless authority around.
Dont be deceived and naive. You are thinking exactly what they want you to think. Be wise look back at history, and the past 39 years before accepting any presidential candidate
Mike John Out of a sea of comments here, there is only but a few that makes sense. I can perfectly understand the anger of most Nigerians, but clearly judging by the reaction to this "interview" we are playing into the hands of the enemy. It is sad, very sad !
very interligengt fulani man.
i hope onr day you rule Nigeria
Sanusi Lamido Sanusi For President
Sanusi is the Man!
Lamido for President!!! please
This is the type Nigeria need to change country for good but bad evil people in government will never allow good people to be.
He speaks like a real prince. I hope all these alleged infractions are proven to be false.
100% agree
Why is the interviewer not sitting down?
is that the bone of contention. this is a serious issue and the standing position shows that. are you not irritated at the rubish going on with the gej administration?
adesuwa ujiadughele it is part of it my dear.. corruption has so eaten deep that they have embezzeled the money for chair
adesuwa ujiadughele you didnt answer the question.The journalist should be professional in his job and that includes comporting himself well and giving us the other side of the story.We have only heard Sanusi's story here.Amsure there are enough seats in that room for him to sit rather than act like he is before some demi-god.
It does not come as a surprise. This man is too good for Jonathan to rubbish, face the fact!
It's still not too late to fix Nigeria.
It's just going to need honesty.
In Nigeria!!!!!!!
Impossible.
A wasted chance to build a nation has gone with the wind.
So so so sad.
I can't really understand why a Doctor who discovered a cancer in the Nigerian system be sacked and what power does Jonathan has by doing that other than the one given to him by the people and Sanusi L. is one of them. AFRICAN LEADER WAY BACK BEHIND:
Now we know why there are no good roads, clean water, rail system, welfare system and development in general in our country, simple put "our natural resources are sold by a few and the money is shared amongst those few... God help Nigeria.
I just know that the removal of Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is political and a gross victimization. Accurate and also precise. Jonathan should learn soundness and integrity.
We have some very competent candidates currently running for the office of the President of Nigeria, therefore team work should be encouraged greatly towards the anticipated victory. This is simply because, Nigeria has enough issues already; that requires urgent solutions. Perhaps a public debate between Sowore, Durotoye, Moghalu and other aspirants included. What do you think?
Attackis the best form of defense!! This very sound and intelligent economist just evaded the real question. He simply took the searchlight off himself and placed it on NNPC.

I can also argue that they can as well profit from the corruption of Sanusi ….. well, not unless SLS is being greedy by not declaring GEJ's portion of the loot, hence the exposure…. LOL. Wake up from your slumber young man and Lets not confuse these issues!
If you have a rebuttal to my statements, please talk based on facts and not speculations or beer parlor gist as I HAVE WORK TO DO!
My God!. Sanusi Lamido I pray we have 20 of your type. QUESTION PLEASE: If as CEO you employ me to handle your account and along the line i happen to raise issues of fraud are you supposed to set up a team to investigate such fraud or fire me claiming I raised such issue solely to embarrass you as my CEO?
LOL. GUD QUESTION
Nigerians, Now. we have heard! What do we do?
***** You are completely clueless to what's going on here, and I will advice you not get into things you don't understand.
sequence solution
rude much?
There are men and there are men . This is a MAN
.. this is in 19 months , not in 2011, 2012 ... - Sanusi
Why would GEJ use Sanusi to justify his subsidy removal policy and would not want him to talk about the rot being perpetrated in the name of subsidy.
Why is this man not our president?
Sunusi lamido sunusi pls contest president 2015 we are suporting u.
Nigerians!!! you have a replacement for 2015 now and that is SANUSI, let wake up. Sanusi to you.> Go and Register now with APC and you will get our vote. But take care of your Religious Activities, not good enough. You still have your reputation, so forget about Religion and move all Nigerians forward and be another El- Rufai!!!!
We need more whistle blowers
Nigeria as it is today need a president who is experience with courage to step on toes to lead the country out of PDP mess.Nigeria...a country were people operate without policy yet policy are implemented everyday.A country were the giver of the bribe is set free while d collector is sent to prison...were is that law that says both the giver and the collector are guilty.Infact eastern Nigerians people are becoming something else,they refuse to see any fault in this man called Jonathan,due to ethnic. sentiments.despite a proof that can make a deaf to hear by sanusi,even the educated ones among them still dont see anything in that.development is far away from Nigeria if we continue like this
that is the power of EGO

GET on a self destructive path
Intelligent man
Sowore 2019!!
A virtuous Man
Nigeria banking system is bad, how can someone withdraw money from bank without a working contract, if citizens of Nigeria can work in a legal way Nigeria will be great
I wonder if there's anything wrong in exposing things done the wrong way.
Sanusi is a fine gentleman with good intentions. I also have same impression about Goodluck Jonathan. Unfortunately, Sanusi, should have understood that Nigerians are quick to believe anything that says govt is corrupt and in this case, consistency is important so that the country is not incited for undue troubles. The truth is that 99% of Nigerian Politicians are very very corrupt but you fight them with caution just like Sanusi have done great job fighting corrupt practices through many of his strong financial policies. You cannot fight these guyz by making unnecessary noise like Sanusi did recently. His actions are a distraction to any tactical maneuver to deal with corruption. For example, Odua bought bullet proof cars for N255m. Before that time Fashola bought his own for N300m but no noise. the question is, does our system and policy allow it? Should Jonathan be seen circumventing policies and procedures even though it was put by previous corrupt leaders for their own benefits which he may not know about? How many of us are ready to be like Sanusi in our work places? you want to supply even a pin and the procurement guyz are asking for addition, security man is asking for tips and secretary and accountants are asking for theirs. Now everybody says Jonathan is bad. My take is that these Corruption is so serious that it will require tactical strategy to handle it without upturning our economy or being bloody. The only way is the National Conference else the present Law makers cannot give us good laws.
@Patsy your right.
I don't really know what is happening with this our president ? why is the essence of this all removal?
SOWORE service and selflessness for year. Is only God can reward you. You really dare to be different. Always concerned and do the needful
