Soludo, Fayemi visit Aso Rock

•Prof. Soludo

The former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Charles Soludo and the former governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi were separately sighted at the Presidential Villa, Abuja on Monday.

Soludo, who wore a cream- colored kaftan, signed the visitors’ book and went to the office of the Chief of Staff to the President, ‎Alhaji Abba Kyari around 5:30pm.

Although it could not be confirmed if Soludo met with President Muhammadu Buhari, but his visit came at a time the President is reportedly concluding work on the list of ministerial nominees he would be sending to the National Assembly this month.

Soludo had been quite critical of the financial management of the economy by the Jonathan administration, accusing it of supervising the leakage of N30 trillion from the system.

He was also engaged in a war of words with former minister of finance, Ngozi Okonjo Iweala who expressed reservations over Soludo’s criticism of the last administration.

Fayemi, who was in a dark – colored kaftan with a cap also entered the Chief of Staff’s office about 30 minutes after Soludo.

The two men waited for the Chief of Staff because he was in the President’s office when they entered the State House.
