CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele, buys APC presidential form
Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has reportedly obtained the N100 million expression of interest and nomination forms of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2023 elections.
The N100 million forms were picked up on behalf of the CBN Governor by a group of supporters from the party’s organising secretary at the International Conference Centre (ICC) in Abuja, on Friday morning.
There had been speculations that the Central Bank Governor was interested in vying for the Presidency in 2023 with campaign banners flooding parts of the country.
Amid the speculations Mr Emefiele had said his focus was on solving macroeconomic challenges, including fighting inflation.
“My focus at this time is a robust monetary policy and fighting inflation which is now a global problem; building a strong financial system in an increasingly uncertain global economy,” Mr Emefiele said in a series of tweets in March.
