The Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria is said to be out of the country and quietly declared wanted for terrorism financing allegations by the State Security Services.
This was disclosed by Femi Falana SAN, Human Rights Activist, in a Channels Television interview on Sunday night.
Falana cited that Nigeria needs to act maturely as so much is expected of us as Africa’s largest nation; he urged President Muhammadu Buhari to step in and ensure order.
According to Falana, Mr Emefiele has been quietly declared wanted over terrorism financing.
“I can say without any fear that Mr Godwin Emefiele is not in Nigeria, but he has been quietly declared wanted by state Security Services.”
“This can only happen in a Banana republic where the CBN Governor would be accused of a grave offence, which is terrorism financing”.
He recalled that the former CBN Governor, Lamido Sanusi was also accused of terrorism financing in 2014, a case in which he won and was granted N50 million in reparations.
“The details are not outlined and these guys play on our collective intelligence because they know we are forgetful. In 2014, his predecessor, former Emir of Kano Lamido Sanusi was equally accused of terrorism financing when he was attending a meeting with Governors of African Central banks,
“When landed in Lagos he was arrested, he challenged the FG in a High court, which was later discovered that he was being investigated, for ” terrorism financing”, he won the case, and the allegation of Terrorism financing was dismissed and awarded N50 million reparations.”
“You can’t have such serious allegations against the governor of a Central Bank and on their removal that nothing has happened”, he warned.
Falana emphasized the need for all involved to exercise the maturity that is expected of Nigeria as the most populous Black nation on earth.
