DSS Charges Suspended CBN Chief Emefiele To Court

The Federal High Court in Lagos has mandated the interim forfeiture of significant sums of money and numerous properties linked to Godwin Emefiele, the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

Sequel to an Abuja High Court Order, the Department of State Services (DSS) has confirmed that Mr Godwin Emefiele has been charged to court in compliance with the Order.

In a statement, the Force public relations officer Peter Afunaya, recalls that though Emefiele 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.
