A chapter in The Nigerian Banking Sector Reforms, 2012, pp 179-186 from Palgrave Macmillan
Abstract:
Abstract Going by popular sentiment, the Nigerian banking reforms had begun to win commendable acceptance, both locally and internationally by mid-2011, two years into the term of office of the governor of the Central Bank. As well as commendations from multilateral institutions, the governor had received several international and local awards, including a number of honorary doctorates1 from well-known local universities. (ThisDay, Monday 21 March, 2011). In January 2011, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi was named African and Global Central Banker of 2011 by the Banker Magazine, the same magazine which had serenaded his predecessor five years earlier. By April 2011, Time magazine had listed Lamido Sanusi as one of the ‘World’s 100 Most Influential People’ (Perry 2011), describing him as a‘veteran of an often corrupt banking system … who said he was “cleaning up not just banking, but all of Nigeria”’. Another Nigerian entertainment group, the Silverbird Group, had awarded him the 2010 Man of the Year Award for his courageous reforms.
