Godwin Emefiele, the former Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, is facing serious charges related to alleged abuse of office and misallocation of funds. His arraignment before Justice Rahman Oshodi indicates a significant legal proceeding.
In the charge marked ID/23787c/2024 and dated April 3, 2024, the EFCC alleged that Emefiele abused his office between 2022 and 2023 in Lagos.
It seems like the former Central Bank of Nigeria governor is accused of allocating a significant amount of foreign exchange without following proper procedures.
This could be a serious allegation of abuse of authority. The aggregate sum of $2,136,391,737.33 without bids, which act is prejudicial to the rights of Nigerians.”
