Dear Sir,
In the PUNCH of Monday
November 2, 2009, Femi Falana while
contributing to the national
discourse on the situation with the
banking industry insisted that
Professor Soludo should rather be in
prison now than fighting to retain
his 'domination' to seek the
governorship seat of Anambra State
by 2010.
In a country where anything goes and
having the ruling PDP at the
driver's seat, anything corruption
sounds irrelevant to it.
Double-standard, insincerity, and
''kidnapping'' of people's votes are
also tools in its kitty. Femi Falana
opined that Soludo confessed to have
been a member of the PDP since 2006,
meaning that while he was the CBN
governor, he was a party man; and
this is against one of the
principles against any norm.
I add to what Femi Falana stand for:
Soludo did compromise with the
disgraced financial/banking
institutions, as Sanusi said that
rot in the banking sector could have
been nipped in the bud more than a
year ago. Soludo should be summoned
to give his own account of the rot.
This is the primary thing that he
should face after which it should be
determined whether he has some case
to answer with EFCC. On the aspect
of remaining on the seat of CBN
governor and carrying party card,
the INEC should see it as a point
that should disqualify him as a
candidate for the PDP in the Anambra
gubernatorial elections February
2010.
On all the above, the masses wait to
see what the outcome of this glaring
dangerous scenario would finally
come to be.
