President Bola Tinubu is currently in a closed-door meeting with the former Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, at the State House.
The meeting of the former governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) with the President is barely one week after Godwin Emefiele was suspended as the CBN Governor.
Sanusi’s visit, which is the first since the President assumed office, comes barely one week after the President suspended Godwin Emefiele as the CBN Governor.
The agenda of the meeting is unclear as of press time.
Sanusi served as CBN chief from June 2009 to June 2014 when Emefiele took over from him.
On Friday, the President suspended Emefiele as the apex bank’s chief and directed that the bank’s Deputy Governor of Operations, Folashodun Shonubi, resume office in an acting capacity.
On Saturday, the Department of State Services (DSS) confirmed that Emefiele is in its custody.
On Wednesday, the apex bank unified all segments of the forex market collapsing all previous windows into one.
