The suspended Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has been arrested by the Department of State Services (DSS).
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu suspended Emefiele yesterday, June 9 and said that he was under investigation. The President asked the sacked CBN boss to hand over to Folashodun Adebisi Shonubi as the acting Governor of apex bank.
The secret police had wanted to arrest Emefiele before now but for the quiet intervention of former President Muhammadu Buhari.
The DSS even went to court to secure an order to effect Emefiele’s arrest for alleged terrorism financing offence.
