Falana: DSS Can Only Investigate, Prosecute Emefiele on Terrorism, Not Money Laundering

Foremost human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, SAN, on Sunday, declared that the Department of State Services (DSS) lacked power to investigate and prosecute the suspended Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mr. Godwin Emefiele, for alleged money laundering.

Falana said such prosecutorial powers belong to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), and urged DSS to investigate Emefiele only on the allegations bordering on terrorism.
