Fear and greed destroyed Nigeria , says ex-Emir Sanusi

Former Emir of Kano and the immediate past governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Alhaji Sanusi Lamido said  fear and greed  are the two critical factors that have destroyed Nigeria.

Sanusi who stated this at a colloquium to mark his 60th birthday on Monday August 16, in Abuja said he has no plans to become president in 2023 or go into politics.

Rather , he said he has secured admission to the University of London for a PhD in Law programme.

Where he will be writing on “the codification of Muslim family laws an instrument of social reform”.

The former Emir who was removed by Governor Abdullahi  Ganduje of Kano State and taken to Nasarawa prison before he was freed by the court said his prison experience has moulded him not to be afraid of going to prison or dying.

He noted  that the country has a problem and warned that  if privileged Nigerians fail to think of how to help the less privileged majority the country will remain where we are .
