Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the former Emir of Kano has said that Nigeria will not be where it is, if the public office holders handle their tasks seriously.

Sanusi said this during an event themed “Emir Sanusi: Truth in Time” in Lagos on Sunday.

The former CBN governor added that if people are willing to become public officers, they must tell Nigerians how they improve our lives.

“If every President, every governor, every minister, every commissioner took seriously, this country will not be where it was.

“If people are willing to be ministers, commissioners, governors and presidents for eight years, and not tell us how they have improved our lives, we have a problem.

Sanusi also stated that “with the current administration, I spent the whole of 2015 and 2016 speaking to everybody who should be communicated to, and telling them that the economic policies they were pursuing were going to destroy the Nigerian economy.

“It was only when that failed that I spoke publicly, and we had to speak. Now the question which everybody is asking is should an Emir speak? The answer is yes and it depends on what you are speaking on.”
