Interesting time

I never knew CBN had power to sack directors in commercial banks.

I cannot but laugh. I remember Sanusi Lamido and that pain still hurts. It shows you what a failed nation can do to you. FBNH or FBN has been turned into national cake. The Fulanis-Hausas and their slaves Yoruba and Igbos are taking their pie. Keep it up failed nation.

That’s why they sack him ☹️

Interesting times indeed.
