President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday tipped the Chief Executive Officer of Zenith Bank as the new Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

To this end, the President on Thursday forwarded his name as well as that of his deputy, Mr. Adelabu Adekoya, a director in First Bank to the Senate for confirmation.

The President sent the names to the Senate just few hours after suspending outgone Governor of CBN, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi from the bank for financial recklessness and acting in a manner that is at variance with the vision of government for the bank.

The President might have converted the suspension of the governor to sack with the latest development.
