FG Fires Back, Says Soludo’s Tenure a Disaster

The Federal Government has described the five year Prof Chukuwma Soludo used as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria as a failure and a disaster to the banking sector.

Soludo who on monday wrote an article saying that Goodluck Jonathan has performed woefully as the president of Nigeria.

But the Minister of Finance, Dr Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala while reacting through a statement issued by her Special Adviser Communications, Mr Paul Nwabuikwu said Soludo through his article has committed what she described as “intellectual harakiri.”

The Minister noted that not only was the article littered with abusive and unbecoming language, it shows Soludo, whom she described as an “embittered loser in the Nigerian political space” can get so derailed by misquoting economic facts and maliciously turning statistics on their head to justify a hatchet job.”
