The attention of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has been drawn to a story published in one of the national dailies today alleging that the Governor, Mr Godwin Emefiele has launched a “fresh plot against President-elect”.
It went further to allege that the Governor has made certain amount of money available to a political aspirant ahead of March 18, 2023 gubernatorial poll.
In a press release made available to newsmen, the Acting Director
Corporate Communications
CBN, Mr. Isa Abdulmumin inform members of the public that the story is completely false and malicious as the Governor has never met Mr Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour either in person or through 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 job with a view to achieving statutory mandates of the Bank”.
