A Federal Capital Territory High Court, on Thursday, gave the Department of State Security Service (DSS) one week to either prosecute suspended Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Godwin Emefiele with a crime or free him.
Justice Hamza Muazu issued the order in a judgement on a fundamental human rights lawsuit Emefiele filed against the DSS and others.
According to Justice Muazu, the DSS has the authority to carry out its constitutional responsibilities to make arrests, hold people in custody, and guarantee the prevention of internal crime.
