Powerful politicians behind plot to remove Emefiele – Saraki

Former Senate President, Bukola Saraki, alleged on Wednesday some powerful politicians were behind the attempt by the ongoing plot to remove the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele.

A coalition of civil society organizations on Monday evening protested an alleged plot to detain the CBN governor for alleged terrorism financing in Abuja.

The development followed the discovery of a suit filed by the Department of State Service (DSS) at the Federal High Court, Abuja, where it accused the CBN governor of terrorism financing and other activities regarded as threats to the country’s security.
