EMEFIELE DEBUNKS FAKE NEWS TITLED: Emefiele Launches Fresh Plot Against President-elect Tinubu
By People’s Voice Nigeria | News
The attention of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has been drawn to a story published in The Nation newspaper on Monday, March 13, 2023 edition, alleging that the Governor, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, has launched a “fresh plot against the president-elect.” The aforementioned story went further to allege that the governor has made a certain amount of money available to a political aspirant ahead of the March 18, 2023 gubernatorial election.
In a press statement by Mr. Abdulmumin, the Acting Director of Corporate Communications, CBN said it wished to inform members of the public that this story is completely false and malicious, as the Governor does not know and has never met or even spoke with Mr. Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour either in person or through a proxy.
We wish to reiterate that the CBN Governor does not take part in politics and therefore urge anyone with contrary information to prove the Governor wrong should provide such facts.
As such, the Governor and team at the CBN should be allowed to focus on their assigned jobs with a view to achieving the statutory mandates of the bank.
