Governor Aminu Tambuwal of Sokoto State has called on the Federal Government to kick out the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele.
Tambuwal, a Presidential aspirant on the platform of PDP, made the call on Saturday, in Jalingo, shortly after interacting with the party delegates ahead of PDP presidential primaries.
The governor said that Emefiele’s continued stay in office, after openly identifying himself with a political party, should not be encouraged.
Three interest groups had purchased the All Progressive Congress (APC) presidential nomination and expression of interest forms for the CBN governor.
However, Emefiele, while reacting through his verified Twitter handle, on Saturday rejected the forms.
He said that, should he decide to contest for the political office, he would prefer to use his personal resources.
