The embattled managing director of the Nigerian Security Printing and Minting Company(NSPMC) Ehi Okomoyon and two other management staff yesterday tendered their resignation to the board of directors of the company.
LEADERSHIP had, late last year exclusively reported that a Central Bank of Nigeria(CBN) audit team had uncovered a scandal in which N2.1 billion worth N1,000 notes were missing from the minting company while the quantities of other missing denominations were still been investigated.
In a meeting that lasted close to three hours and chaired by the CBN governor, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, the board unanimously accepted their resignation yesterday.
Okomoyon had since December 2012 been on suspension when the scandal first broke with Ahmed Bamali appointed as acting managing director as Leadership had also exclusively reported.
Also to tender their voluntary resignations were the executive director of operations at the Lagos factory, Desmond Isibor and the head of security at the same factory, Clement Evarue.
