President Tinubu Reverses Ruby Onwudiwe’s Nomination As CBN Board Member

President Tinubu has reportedly withdrawn Dr. Ruby Onwudiwe’s nomination as CBN Board member after receiving complaints from top APC members over her  support for Peter Obi and the Labour Party in the 2023 elections.
According to sources close to the presidency, Sen. Opeyemi Bamidele and Sen. Solomon Adeola who were on the Senate president’s entourage pointed out the impropriety of the nomination to President Tinubu last night during his meeting with Senate President Akpabio and other senators.

Some top APC supporters had earlier protested strongly to senior government officials on the abnormality of the nomination of an opposition figure who not only openly campaigned and published several negative stories against the party and President Tinubu to serve at the apex bank after the news of her nomination surfaced.

” I think the president was again misled, we cannot afford to have this kind of people who are not sold to our programmes and determination to chart a new course for the country to benefit from what they did not work for

We have very competent people who can easily fit into that office ” a source said.

President Tinubu is now expected to announce a new nominee from the South East.
