Sanusi, CBN gov, NPC boss may lose their jobs •For mismanaging agencies under their control

There are strong indications that the governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, and chairman, National Population Commission (NPC), Mr Festus Odimegwu,  may lose their jobs, following a series of allegations levelled against them.
The jobs of the two public officers, acccording to a Presidency source, became threatened following investigations carried out on them over some allegations.
According to the source, both Mallam Sanusi and Mr Odimegwu were  accused of mismanaging the agencies under their control, an allegation which President Goodluck Jonathan was said to have frown on.
“I can reveal to you that the matter of the two public officers has come under review and their jobs may be in the line,” disclosed the source.
According to him, “they were both accused of grossly mismanaging the agencies under their control, an accusation that has been duly investigated.”
Besides the issue of mismanagement of the agencies, the source also mentioned that the two officers were  accused of misrepresenting the government through their “unguarded statements, which were often seen as representing the views and decisions of government.
“For instance, look at the CBN governor; he is usually embroilled in matters outside his official duties. How many times do you see the chairman of the US Federal Reserves Bank engaging in issues outside his official engagement? You can only see him speaking on vital economic issue when it is necessary to do so, which is rarely,” explained the source, adding that the NPC chairman was also guilty of the same offence.
“As for the NPC chairman, his conduct in recent times has been worrisome. You cannot be rubishing everything your predecessor did. If there is a problem, it is your job to solve it and not create any problem for your agency and government,” the source stated.
Kano State governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, while addressing State House journalists on Friday, had called for the sack of Odimegwu, saying his appointment was a mistake. The governor was quoted as saying that many of them (governors) were not with the appointment of the NPC chairman.
