Central Bank Governor, Emefiele To Appear In Court Over $70million Judgment Debt
The Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefele, has been ordered to appear before the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja to explain his refusal to obey an order for payment of $70million debt. Justice Inyang Ekwo issued the fresh order on Thursday after the court confirmed that Emefiele had refused to obey a previous order of the court to pay the judgment debt. In a judgment obtained by Joe Agi (SAN), the court had granted an order against Emefiele following his persistent refusal to carry out the order of court on the judgment debt.
