What’s the Allegation?

The EFCC claims Emefiele played fast and loose with a staggering sum – over $2 billion in foreign exchange. They allege he allocated this money without following proper bidding procedures, essentially picking favorites and potentially costing Nigerians dearly. This alleged favoritism is a violation of the Corrupt Practices Act. On top of that, Emefiele is accused of accepting bribes, gifts through agents, and using his position to enrich his associates.

When and Where Will the Trial Happen?

Emefiele is scheduled to appear before Justice Rahman Oshodi of the Lagos High Court on Monday, April 8th. The charges include accepting bribes, receiving gifts through agents, and using his position for personal gain. This case promises to be a major spectacle, with Nigerians keenly watching the drama unfold.
