Sanusi Lamido, the suspended CBN governor, has said that he ignored President Jonathan’s directive to resign because the reason for the directive was baseless.
Speaking on Jonathan’s reason, he said the president asked him to quit his office for allegedly sending copies of the letter he wrote concerning the missing funds to former President Olusegun Obasanjo as well as to the governor of Rivers State, Chibuike Amaechi.
He has however stated that he is ready to face the backlash of any action president Jonathan might take against him.
He said this in an interview with Metropole magazine, where he denied giving the letter to Obasanjo and Amaechi, two known antagonists of Jonathan’s administration.
“He asked me to resign and I did indicate that I did not see a basis for it because the allegation was that I had handed a letter that I wrote to him to former President Olusegun Obasanjo and Governor Rotimi Amaechi, and I did not,” he said.
