Rais amesema kuwa anafahamu Gavana wa sasa wa Benki Kuu, Prof. Ndulu amefanya kazi kubwa sana na kwamba takribani miezi miwili kutoka sasa atastaafu na kwamba atakayechukua nafasi yake, yupo miongoni mwa walioshiriki kwenye mchakato wa makinikia.

Akiendelea kuzungumza, Rais Magufuli alisema kuwa amemteua Prof. Luoga ambaye kitaaluma ni mwanasheria nguli katika masuala ya kodi, uwekezaji na mikataba kuchukua nafasi ya Prof. Ndulu mara atakapostaafu.

Rais aliyasema hayo alipokuwa akikosoa hatua ya BoT kutokuzuia wawekezaji wanaokuja nchini kuwekeza na badala ya kufungua akaunti ya ndani ya nchi, wanakwenda kufungua katika nchi ambazo hazitozi kodi wakati sheria ipo na inazuia hatua hiyo.

 "Leo nimeamua kumteua Gavana katika hawa nilowapa vyeti leo. Nimemteua Prof. Luoga kuwa Gavana wa Benki Kuu mara baada ya Gavana aliyepo kumkabidhi. Prof. Luoga ni Mtaalamu wa Taxation law,". Alisema Rais Magufuli.

Rais Magufuli ameongeza kuwa amemteua Prof. Luoga kwa sababu katika kitengo cha kodi BoT kulikuwa na matatizo lakini pia, amemteua miongoni mwa wazalendo waliopigania masuala ya madini ili kutia chachu miongoni mwa watanzania wawe wazalendo.

Prof. Luoga alikuwa miongoni mwa watanzania wanane waliofanya majadiliano na vigogo wa Barrick Gold Corporation na kuiletea manufaa mbalimbali.
