JUST IN: President Buhari Throws Aso Rock Cabals’ List To The Dustbin, Appoints A Northern Christian To A Very Juicy Position

President Muhammadu Buhari, on Thursday, nominated a Northern Christian, Edward Lametek Adamu, to the Senate, for confirmation as the Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, to represent the North-West geo-political zone.

Sahara Reporters alleged that Buhari’s nomination of Adamu put an end to a desperate scheme by the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari, to impose former Aso Savings boss, Usman Hassan Katsina.

Sahara Reporters further revealed that Abba Kyari had attempted to stop the nomination of Adamu by nominating his candidate, an indigene of Katsina State.

CBN sources told Sahara Reporters allegedly, that many of the staff within the apex bank had planned to stoutly resist any attempt to impose Katsina, who visits the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, weekly, on account of the huge fraud that occurred in Aso Savings.

Adamu, an indigene of Gombe State, replaces Sulaiman Barau, from Zaria, Kaduna State, who retired in December 2017.
