SEQUEL to an Abuja High Court Order of today, July 13, the Department of State Services (DSS) has confirmed that Godwin Emefiele, suspended governor of Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, has been charged to court in compliance with the Order.
The public may recall that the Service had, in 2022, applied for a court order to detain him in respect of a criminal investigation. Though he obtained a restraining order from an FCT High Court, the Service, however, arrested him in June, 2023, on the strength of suspected fresh criminal infractions/information, one of which forms the basis for his current prosecution.
The Service has assured the public of professionalism, justice and fairness in handling this matter and indeed the discharge of its duties within the confines of the law, according to a statement by Peter Afunanya,
Public Relations Officer, Department of State Services, Abuja, Thursday, July 13.
