BREAKING : DSS charges Emefiele to court

BREAKING : DSS charges Emefiele to court

The Department of State Services (DSS) says it has charged suspended Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor, Godwin Emefiele, to court.

As signed by the spokesman of DSS, Peter Afunanya, on Thursday, said the move was promoted by an Abuja Court order of Thursday.

The statement reads in full : “Sequel to an Abuja High Court Order of today, 13th July, 2023, the Department of State Services (DSS) hereby confirms that Mr Godwin Emefiele 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 assures the public of professionalism, justice and fairness in handling this matter and indeed the discharge of its duties within the confines of the law. ”
