EXPOSED: Jonathan Orders Sanusi To Resign Over His Letter; Sanusi Says No

Sycophancy is the problem that has kept Nigeria backward all these
years, it's so bad that no one can dare to challenge the President
even if he is wrong. Sanusi Lamido has said such can't happen in the
CBN:
As you read this, President Goodluck Jonathan has ordered CBN
Governor, Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi to resign immediately on the
grounds that the letter Sanusi wrote to him on the unremitted $49.8
billion oil money to the Federation Account was leaked to ex-
President Olusegun Obasanjo by Sanusi himself.
But Sanusi said all that is cheap politics and vowed that Jonathan
can't force him to resign because based on the constitution of Nigeria,
he could only be removed from office by two-thirds of the Senate.
Jonathan called Sanusi on phone but he was shocked as they had a
heated exchange...
According to THISDAY, the president had called Sanusi and accused
him of leaking the letter to Obasanjo, which enabled the former
President to use it as one of the many allegations he levelled against
Jonathan in his letter titled: “Before It is Too Late”.
The president, who a source in the presidency said was very angry
and was not prepared to allow Sanusi to proceed on his terminal
leave in March, asked him to tender his resignation this week
Tuesday.
But Sanusi stood his ground and made it abundantly clear to
Jonathan that he would not be forced out, except he is removed by
two-thirds of the Senate as required by the law of the land.
Sanusi also expressed his surprise to the president that he was the
one being asked to resign instead of the president to ask those
responsible for the non-remittance of Nigeria's money in NNPC to
resign.
“Sanusi felt he was being forced out for doing his patriotic duty to his
country by drawing attention to the unaccounted funds. He only has
two months to go, so this was a ploy to force him out and destroy his
career and reputation," said a Presidency source.
Sanusi has however briefed his aides and family members, insisting
that Nigeria belongs to all and not a few.
