Contrary to insinuations that Mrs Onwudiwe Ruby, who was initially nominated into the board of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) by President Bola Tinubu, rejected the nomination, investigation revealed that her appointment was withdrawn by the government.

It was gathered that Onwudiwe’s nomination as CBN Board member was withdrawn after the government received complaints from top members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) over Ruby’s support for Peter Obi in the 2023 presidential election.
Senator Opeyemi Bamidele and Senator Solomon Adeola reportedly pointed out the impropriety of the nomination to President Tinubu during his meeting with Senate President, Godswill Akpabio and other senators.
Some top APC supporters had earlier protested strongly to senior government officials on the abnormality of the nomination of an opposition figure to serve at the apex bank after the news of her nomination.
We were informed that Ruby was keen to be screened by the Senate, and that she was consulted and her CV was duly acknowledged.
“When she was consulted, did she inform the “ emergency lovers of Ruby” that she was submitting her CV? She does even know them.
“The same Channel of Communication conveyed the message of withdrawal to her. Those changing the narrative just have to shut up. They were not privileged to back channel communications,” a source said.
