Yinka Odumakin, National Publicity Secretary of Yoruba socio-cultural group, Afenifere, has spoken about dethroned Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi.
Odumakin on Tuesday said Sanusi’s dethronement is as a result of what he has done.
He explained that Sanusi, a former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), became part of the political machinery in 2014, telling lies about missing money that was not proved till date.
According to him, “I have no strong views on his dethronement as there are more pressing important issues that should engage our attention ranging from insecurity to falling oil prices.
“Sanusi was a CBN Governor who turned the office to a personal one aid donating public money like a Donatus all over the place. There was a time we used to know CBN Governors by their photographs and signatures on Naira notes.
“He became part of the political machinery in 2014 telling lies about missing money that was not proved to date. It was all scripted for regime change.
“Sanusi would be remembered as a progressive who wanted Almajiri poverty solved by spending N5billion to renovate his palace. Good riddance”
“Clearly he must have crossed some political lines for his head to be chopped by this vindictive government. He was part of them and they have thrown him away when they were done with him.”
