The Economic and financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, will on May 15 arraign the suspended Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, Godwin Emefiele in a Federal Capital Territory high court on a three-count amended charge.
In the fresh charge filed against him, the EFCC alleged that Emefiele disobeyed the directives of law with intent to cause injury to the public during his implementation of the naira swap policy of the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari. The anti-graft agency also accused Emefiele of unlawfully approving the withdrawal of N124.8 billion from the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation.
8 awarded N100 million damages to suspended former governor of the central bank of Nigeria against the federal government and Economic and financial Crimes Commission for violations of his right. Adeniyi further restrained the federal government and its agents from arresting Emefiele unless an order was obtained through a competent court.
