President Muhammadu Buhari on Tuesday named a former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mrs Sarah Alade, as his Special Adviser on Finance and Economy.
The office is domiciled in the Ministry of Finance, Budget and National Planning, a State House statement said.
“Dr Alade, who holds BSc (Economics) and PhD in Management Science (Operations Research), retired from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) as deputy governor in 2017 after spending 23 years in the apex bank.
“She had also acted briefly in 2014 as the CBN governor,” the statement, which was signed by Buhari’s Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Mr Garba Shehu, added.
But, it was silent on the fate of Dr Adeyemi Dipeolu, who was the Economic Adviser to the President in the office of Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo.
