The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP, has demanded the resignation of Godwin Emefiele, the Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, after picking the All Progressive Congress nomination form.
SERAP urged the CBN governor to resign immediately as getting involved in politics would distract him from carrying out his duties.
The group said this via Twitter statement on Friday.
The tweet read: “BREAKING: Following reports that the CBN governor Mr Godwin Emefiele has picked the APC N100m presidential nomination form, we urge him to immediately resign his position in line with S. 9 of the CBN Act.
Engaging in politics will conflict with/detract from his full-time duties.”
Reports have it that associates of Emefiele paid N100million for the nomination and expression of interest forms on Friday, at the International Conference Center, Abuja venue of the sale of forms.
