Protesters numbering over 200 on Monday stormed a Federal High Court in Abuja following a suit secretly filed by the Department of State Services, accusing the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Godwin Emefiele, of terrorism financing and other crimes.

The protesters, who carried placards with various inscriptions, also alleged that the DSS embarked on the plot to remove the CBN governor for political and pecuniary reasons.

The leader of the protesters, Tochukwu Ohazuruike, who had earlier addressed a press conference, alleged that the DSS DG and his allies in the plot had already promised someone else the office on the agreement that the cash withdrawal limit policy would be immediately suspended. The protesters also claimed that the plot of labelling Emefiele a terrorist was to undermine the President, usurp his powers to hire and fire and remove Emefiele from office on the strength that they would get an order to detain him for at least 60 days to impose another person as the Central Bank governor.

The DSS had approached the Federal High Court Abuja in the secret suit under S66 of the Terrorism Prevention and Prohibition Act, 2022 to demand that the court order for Emefiele’s detention for 60 days in the first instance.All rights reserved.

Emefiele can pay for the protests, that's child's play.

Its sickening that some Nigerians are trying to defend emefiele instead of asking if there's element of truth in the allegation. Its even more shameless that CUPP has lost credibility and now used as a tool to pursue partisan propaganda and pettiness. Tufiakwa🤮🤮🤮

Nigeria is in big trouble. Is this a protestable matter? So some won't mind crime as long as it's their kinsmen that are involved?

Go and face the Law.
