COVID-19 IN NIGERIA: WE SAY NO TO CHINA INTERVENTION

Can the world ever trust China again? Would Nigeria romance with the prime suspect of the current global crisis (COVID-19)? How can we? In 2012 China handed over a fully funded and built headquarters building in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia to the African Union (AU). A great gesture of friendship and solidarity, perhaps. But not long after, it was alleged to have been bugged, leaking vital, confidential information of the Union to China in faraway Shanghai! True or false, the Union had to change its computer servers to check the alleged mischief. But issues of health are different. Misfiring means losing a life, or even lives. On a national scale, that can amount to thousands. Painful loss. Avoidable loss. The authorities must tread with caution here. Face masks, test kits, ventilators, vaccine and doctors - all from or of China. Hmmmm, caution we must exercise. Until now we have been using our indigenous doctors, and they have been doing well. WHY CHANGE THE WINNING TEAM? Please let us DISCARD this idea of Chinese intervention. WE DON'T NEED IT. Let us stay safe Stay indigenous. Stay Nigerian We shall overcome

Emefiele reassigns CBN chiefs


Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor Godwin Emefiele yesterday reassigned three deputy governors.
A statement signed by Isaac A. Okorafor on behalf of the Director, Corporate Communications, said Alhaji Suleiman Barau, Deputy Governor, Corporate Services Directorate, has been moved to the Operations Directorate.
Deputy Governor (Operations) Kingsley Moghalu, reassigned to the Financial Systems Stability (FSS) Directorate. Mr. Adebayo Adelabu who was in charge of Financial Systems Stability (FSS) is now to head the Corporate Services Directorate. Former Acting Governor Dr. Sarah Alade, retains her portfolio as Deputy Governor, Economic Policy Directorate.

The statement said the redeployments were in line with Emefiele’s vision of entrenching a more professional and people-focused central bank.

These redeployments, the statement said will take effect from June 23 and “are expected to contribute to the Bank’s vision of being the Model Central Bank delivering Price and Financial System Stability and promoting sustainable Economic Development.”
