Don’t Let Emefiele Go away Nation Earlier than Tinubu’s Inauguration – Gov Matawalle Begs Buhari 

Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara state has known as on President Muhammadu Buhari to not permit Central Financial institution of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Godwin Emefiele, to depart the nation earlier than the Might 29 inauguration of President-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Emefiele had been rumoured to have secured the approval of the President to embark on a examine depart which many suspect is a ploy to flee the scrutiny of the incoming administration.

Governor Matawalle in an announcement on Monday accused Emefiele of looking for to derail the continuing transition as a substitute of ready to render account of his stewardship.

Matawalle due to this fact known as on President Buhari to cancel any bid by Emefiele to depart the nation earlier than Might 29, saying he has over 10 months left of his tenure.

The assertion learn in full:

“My plea with President Muhammadu Buhari to halt all examine leaves, international transfers, postings of officers important to take-off of incoming administration.

Past the exceptional achievements of his administration in all sectors, President Muhammadu Buhari has demonstrated that he’s a patriot, democrat and a person of impeccable integrity and character. Maybe greater than ever earlier than, this has been on show even within the twilight of his administration. President Buhari has about two weeks left of his eventful tenure.

Final week, he and his household formally moved out of their residence at Aso Rock Presidential Villa into a spot known as the Glass Home, additionally throughout the precinct of the Villa.

And we witnessed an astonishingly respectable spectacle of First Woman Aisha Buhari taking Senator Oluremi Tinubu, spouse of the President-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu, around the Presidential Villa, their soon-to-be- abode.

President Buhari and his spouse Aisha Buhari have proven good religion and proven they need a seamless orderly and peaceable switch of energy to the incoming administration. They’re keen to make sure that the brand new regime takes off easily and speedily and in a way devoid of any encumbrance within the curiosity of our nation. That is the correct factor to do and I commend President Buhari and his spouse for his or her statesmanly conduct.

The President and his spouse have demonstrated good religion.

Nonetheless, different officers in authorities have acted in a distinct method. They’re behaving as in the event that they need to put spanners within the work for the incoming regime. President Buhari shouldn’t permit this. He ought to frown on any try by any particular person looking for to break the nice job he has achieved.

That is the import of this press assertion at present. I would like, right here and now, to induce President Buhari to not approve any examine depart or no matter sort of depart for any officer important to the take-off of the incoming administration of Asíwájú Bola Ahmed Tinubu. One among such individuals that has been speculated within the media to have sought a examine depart is Central Financial institution of Nigeria Governor Godwin Emefiele. If the depart has been accepted, as reported within the media, the President ought to cancel it within the curiosity of peaceable switch of energy, accountability and good governance. CBN Governor Emefiele superintended over the administration of the nation’s monetary and financial methods. He’s the one who initiated and carried out the current disastrous Naira swap coverage, the Naira confiscation program, which put Nigerians by way of untold woes and trauma and set our economic system backwards.

Two of my brother-governors and I took the Federal Authorities to court docket over this ill-advised coverage and fought resolutely till we bought a respite for our individuals from Emefiele and firm.

This similar Emefiele now needs to proceed on examine depart when he has some 10 months left of his tenure apparently in a bid to evade rendering accounts. That is unacceptable. President Buhari shouldn’t countenance this. Emefiele should keep at his job to offer full accounts of all that transpired beneath his watch to the incoming administration. He should reply all of the questions the brand new regime could have for him significantly when he nonetheless has some months left of his tenure.

I additionally need to use this chance to enchantment to President Buhari to additionally not approve international postings or grant any international travels for any officer at any stage within the outgoing authorities who could also be important or strategic to the graceful take-off of the incoming authorities. I’m conscious that some officers within the outgoing authorities are transferring to surreptitiously depart the nation at this important time they’re wanted to reply to particular questions, although I might not need point out their names right here.

President Buhari shouldn’t heed their inordinate and unpatriotic plan. These plans are harmful and devilish. They present clearly that these officers have one thing to cover. This have to be halted instantly. Any plan to evade rendering accounts is neither within the curiosity of accountability, transparency and anti-corruption, which President Buhari had championed in authorities, nor within the curiosity of an unencumbered take-off of the incoming administration. It’s additionally not within the curiosity of the nation, which the president has at all times promoted and championed. That is my enchantment and why I’ve determined to talk out as a patriotic Nigerian and anxious governor.

Thanks.”
