You Are The Worst CBN Governor Ever, Iweala Blasts Soludo Over Jonathan's Statement

After scoring the administration of President Goodluck Jonathan an “F” on economic management, and asking on what basis the president wants citizens to re-elect him again, Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo- Iweala has come for former CBN Governor, Chukwuma Soludo for his statements.

Okonjo-Iweala through her Special adviser on Media, Paul Nwabuikwu, accused Mr. Soludo of single-handedly mismanaging the country’s banking sector between May 2004 and May 2009 which plunged the country into “an incredible accumulation of liabilities that will cost tax payers about N5.67 trillion”.

She described the former CBN governor as “an embittered loser in the Nigerian political space” who is “so derailed” to “commit intellectual harakiri by deliberately misquoting economic facts and maliciously turning statistics on their head to justify a hatchet job”.

“Soludo has shamelessly pandered to so many past leaders that Nigerians are asking one more time – what position is Soludo gunning for now?” she asked.

“There is definitely an issue of character with Prof. Charles Soludo and his desperate search for power and relevance in Nigeria. Nigerians should therefore beware of so-called intellectuals without character and wisdom because this combination is fatal,” she added.

It will also be recalled that Mr Femi Fani Kayode has also called Mr Soludo out for his statements.
