Founder and President of OPC, (Oodua People's Congress), Dr. Fredrick Fasheun has stated that, the suspended CBN governor Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, is not above the president and for that reason the president can hire and fire. Fredrick described Sanusi as a governor that has no respect for the office and how can he be so arrogant like this... He told Daily Sun.
“Sanusi has no
respect for the office of the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and
carried on as if he is a law unto himself. The fact that he is a prince does
not confer a special statue on him; he is not above the president. Even
monarchs are still under the head of state.”
On Sanusi’s challenge of his removal in court, Fredrick said:
“President Goodluck Jonathan is an executive president; he
can hire and fire. Sanusi deserved what he got, he deserved his sack by the
president. How can you be so arrogant to an executive president of a country
like Nigeria?”
He also faulted Sanusi’s claim that his removal from office was
not in order:
“He (Sanusi) claimed that President Jonathan does not have
the right to remove him; from which book did he read that? He who hires has the
right to fire.
