The report is coming on the background of President Bola Tinubu suspending leaders of two major government institutions in his second and third weeks in office.
In his second week in office, President Tinubu suspended Godwin Emefiele, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) over heavy allegations against his office.
Tinubu suspends 2 top Buhari's men in 2 weeks
Running down to the third week in office, the president announced the suspension of Abdulrasheed Bawa, the immediate past chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over allegations of corruption against his office.
Both Emefiele and Bawa have been accused of abuse of office during their stays as government appointees, and their suspensions appeared to be welcomed by many Nigerians who have commended the president for the move.
However, it is essential to note that the naira redesign policy Emefiele introduced barely two months before the presidential election was adjudged to scuttle the chance of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the election, even now President Tinubu raised an alarm in Ogun State then.
