'Clear yourself of fraud'- Chief Bode George to new Emir of Kano.

Chief Olabode George, a former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has insisted that the ex- governor of CBN now new Emir of Kano, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi should clear his name of all fraudulent allegations thrown at him when he was the boss of the apex bank. Mr. George who said this, while speaking with journalists in Lagos, added that it was pertinent for Emir Lamido Sanusi to answer all allegations of fraud levelled against him and the fact that he is now a monarch does not prevent him from clearing his name. He also observed that Sanusi’s name and reputation are involved and that carrying such allegation is not good for the position he occupies presently. According to Sunday News Watch reports: Chief George said he had been involved in similar situation before and he was even imprisoned for the offence he did not commit and he had to take up the challenge and clear his name. He said Sanusi should be above board in whatever he is doing, just as he urged him to refrain from making political statement because he is not just the ruler of that city, but equally a religious leader who should earn the respect of his people. “Sanusi must answer for what he has done when he was CBN Governor, he should defend himself, it is good for his image. “Whatever he says, he must be above board, he should get his lawyer to clear his name. He must listen to good advice and say what is sensible, he should refrain from making political statement,” Chief George counselled.
