“Emefiele was given a long rope, but he failed to redeem himself. His shenanigans & the colossal damages he perpetrated at the CBN was to the utter detriment of the Nigerian people. This is not even about cashless policy, but apparent corruption especially in the dual exchange rate policy which never made sense. What a sigh of relief!”

Emefiele was suspended on Friday by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and was subsequently arrested by the Department of State Services, on Saturday.
