Governor
Mukhtar Ramalan Yero of Kaduna state has denied that he is making moves
to succeed the governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Sanusi Lamido
Sanusi.
Sanusi’s five-year tenure will expire
in June 2014 and there have been reports of intense lobbying by two
serving governors to succeed him.
Yero who denied the report yesterday
in a statement by his media aide, Ahmed Maiyaki, said he has no interest
in taking up appointment at the CBN or any other institution.
“While we may have ignored this
insinuation as another handiwork of mischief makers, it is pertinent to
put the record straight in the interest of providing accurate
information to the people of Kaduna State and beyond, to save them from
falling gullible to falsehood.
“We wish to state categorically that
His Excellency is completely devoted to delivering democracy dividends
to the people of Kaduna state, to justify the mandate giving to this
administration by the people.
“His Excellency remains committed and
focused to providing purposeful leadership that will bring about rapid
transformation of Kaduna state. His preoccupation at the moment is how
to draw up and execute comprehensive master plan that would improve the
overall living conditions of the entire people of Kaduna state,” the
statement said.
