Alleged N20tn Fraud : Tinubu suspends Emefiele with Immediate effect and orders CBN probe

Published

on

President Bola Tinubu has suspended the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Mr Godwin Emefiele, from office with immediate effect.

This is sequel to the ongoing investigation of his office and the planned reforms in the financial sector of the economy, according to a statement on Friday by the Director of Information, Office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Willie Bassey.

According to the statement, Emefiele has been directed to immediately hand over the affairs of his office to the Deputy Governor (Operations Directorate), who will act as the CBN governor pending the conclusion of the investigation and the reforms.

The CBN listed the Deputy Director, Operations Directorate, as Mr Folashodun Adebisi Shonubi.

Unconfirmed reports emerged late on Friday that operatives of the Department of State Services had arrested the suspended CBN governor. But the spokesman for the DSS, Peter Afunaya, told one of our correspondents that he could not confirm the arrest.

A top security source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Our correspondence that Emefiele would have been arrested during the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari.

He said, “Yes, expect that (his arrest) to happen. He would have been arrested before but the administration of former President Buhari protected him. He has many questions to answer.

“As a result of this, he won’t be allowed to either travel out or sneak out of the country. So, we are looking for him.”

Emefiele, who was appointed the apex bank’s governor on June 4, 2014, was also at the centre of a storm in January 2023 when security operatives attempted to arrest him over allegations of terrorism financing and economic crime.

Section 11 of the CBN Act, 2007 gives the President power to terminate the appointment of the apex bank governor, but such must have the backing of lawmakers.

“The CBN governor can be removed by the President provided that the removal of the governor shall be supported by two-thirds majority of the Senate praying that he be removed,” the section stated.

The Act also states that the governor, deputy governor, or director of the CBN can be removed if they are serving as a lawmaker or a director of a bank.

“A person shall not remain a governor, deputy governor or director of the Bank if he is a member of any federal or state legislative house; or if he is a director, officer or employee of any bank licensed under the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act.”

The CBN Act further states that criminal offences and mental health conditions can result in the CBN governor’s termination of appointment.

“The governor, deputy governor or director shall cease to hold office in the Bank if he becomes of unsound mind or, owing to ill health, is incapable of carrying out his duties: is convicted of any criminal offence by a court of competent jurisdiction except for traffic offences or contempt proceedings arising in connection with the execution or intended execution of any power or duty conferred under this Act or the Banks and Other Financial Institutions Act,” the Act adds.

The governor can also be removed if he “is guilty of a serious misconduct in relation to his duties under this Act; disqualified or suspended from practising his profession in Nigeria by order of a competent authority made in respect of him personally; becomes bankrupt.”

Emefiele’s ‘sins’

The introduction of the naira redesign policy by the Emefiele-led CBN in October 2022 started on a controversial note as the then Minister Finance, Budget and National Planning, Zainab Ahmed, kicked against it barely 48 hours after it was announced.

Ahmed had stated that her ministry was not consulted and she was not aware of the monetary policy.

The reaction generated tension and uncertainty until the Presidency confirmed that Buhari approved the policy, which it said was to manage inflation, combat currency counterfeiting and ransom payment.

Early January 2023, the CBN started a cash swap programme in various local government areas to reach citizens in rural communities, who complained of the unavailability of banks in their localities.

The initial deadline of January 31, 2023, set by the apex bank for the old notes to cease being legal tender was moved to February 10, as the country fell into hard times with both the old and new naira notes going out of circulation.

The situation was compounded by fuel scarcity across the country as Nigerians berated the policies of the government as ill-thought.

Tinubu, who was then the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, also slammed those behind the naira redesign, which he said was targeted at his candidature.

While speaking in January during a campaign at the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abeokuta, the Ogun State capital, Tinubu said, “Let fuel be expensive, only they know where they keep it. Keep petrol, keep the naira, we will vote and be elected. You may change the ink of naira notes. What you expect will not happen. We will win.

“They said petrol will rise to N200/litre and N500/litre, let your mind be at rest. They don’t want the forthcoming election to hold. They want to scatter it but that won’t be possible.

“They thought they could cause trouble; they sabotaged fuel but with or without fuel, with or without motorcycles and tricycles, we will vote and win. This is a superior revolution.”

In February, the governors of Kaduna, Kogi and Zamfara states took the Federal Government to the Supreme Court and urged it to declare the naira redesign illegal.

Despite an initial order of the court for the policy to be suspended, the CBN went ahead to announce that the old naira notes had ceased to be legal tender at the expiration of the February deadline.

In March, the Supreme Court finally ruled that the old naira notes remain legal tender till December 31, 2023, effectively ending the controversies surrounding the matter.

Experts estimated the loss to the failed naira redesign policy at N20tn as many called for the sacking of Emefiele. Many citizens died during protests against the policy, while many commercial banks had their facilities destroyed.

Prior to the naira redesign controversy, many Nigerians, particularly members of civil society and the media, had called for Emefiele’s sacking over his rumoured political ambition.

A group of friends had in May 2022 bought the N100m expression of interest form for the presidential ticket of the APC for him.

This was followed by sponsored posts on various media platforms advertising his candidacy.

Photos of hundreds of branded vehicles were also splashed on social media, attracting widespread outrage.

Emefiele had subsequently instituted a suit against the Independent National Electoral Commission and the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice over his eligibility to contest the APC primary.

He asked the court to stop INEC from disqualifying him from participating in the primary election of his preferred political party.

Suspension expected – Analysts
An economist, Mr Ade Dayo, said the suspension was expected, adding that the Nigerian economy suffered under Emefiele.

He told our correspondence that the monetary policies postulated by Emefiele made many Nigerian businesses shrank and gasped for air.

Dayo said, “It was expected that the new President would let him go. See the gruesome way he (Emefiele) handled the naira redesign policy! Many businesses were shut down during that period. All the pleas from economists, analysts and social critics fell on deaf ears. He was fixed on only doing his bidding.

“Whoever is going to take over after him should be one who listens and is devoid of partisan affiliation. The office of the governor of the CBN is not a political office.

“A thorough probe should be instituted and a competent person made to man the position.”

Another economist, Mr Usman Musa, noted that the suspended CBN governor did not handle the economic issues affecting the nation wisely.

He added that there were many accusations of partisanship regarding Emefiele, but he failed to address the issue as he should.

Musa said, “The economy of this country suffered under Emefiele. Surprise is the last thing I feel hearing the news of his suspension. He should be thoroughly investigated, especially as regards the naira redesign policy. Where are the new notes he said he printed?

“Emefiele completely failed in his duty. He did not concentrate on his core mandate of price stability as the apex bank’s governor. We are talking of an inflation rate of about 22.24 per cent or more and an exchange rate nearing N800 per dollar. Who should be held responsible for all these woes if not him?”

The Director and Chief Executive Officer, Centre for the Promotion of Private Enterprise, Dr Muda Yusuf, said the suspension did not come to him as a surprise.

Yusuf said the President had made it known during his campaign that he did not agree with some of the policies of the CBN governor.

He said, “Emefiele came up with a lot of policies that have not worked well for the economy and Tinubu singled out the exchange rate management, the forex policy and expressed displeasure about the naira redesign. He was very clear about his condemnation of it, and that the policy was too harsh for the citizens.

“It was also clear that the policies of Emefiele were not compatible with that of the President, so if this has happened, I will not be surprised. Their monetary policy beliefs are fundamentally different.”

A policy analyst, Suraj Oyewale, said Emefiele’s performance as governor of the apex bank had fallen below expectation, adding that many Nigerians would be happy to see him leave office.

“The general consensus is that the performance of the economy under Emefiele has been less than impressive, especially the naira redesign policy, which was not well thought out. I’m sure many Nigerians will be excited to see him leave,” he said

Oyewale, however, said it was the second time in 10 years that a sitting CBN governor would be suspended by the President and feared that the trend might “weaken the independence of the CBN.”

“Subsequent governors may become a pun in the hands of the executive for fear of being sacked and will be unable to take tough decisions that will favour the economy,” he added.

A lecturer and political analyst, Dr Ganiu Bamgbose, said the President made a great decision by suspending the CBN governor, whom he accused of holding the country hostage economically.

He said, “I think the President as the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces is at liberty to choose who is returning and whosoever he wants in his space.

As a president, who is prepared to lead the country to success, he could have seen what no one else sees. In this case, as the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces, he knows who is suitable for a post and who is going to make his administration successful.

“Emefiele should have been relieved of the job earlier than this. Isn’t it ridiculous that the CBN suddenly told us that there was no money to sustain the change of currency, which brought so much agony and hardship to the country about five to six months ago?”

A political analyst, Kamilu Fage, said it was surprising that the President left the CBN governor in office for some time after the swearing-in despite several infractions Emefiele committed prior to the election.

“Given what Emefiele did with the scarcity of naira, I am surprised that the President left him in the office till now given all he did during the naira crisis,” he said.

However, a human rights lawyer, Inibehe Effiong, said the suspension of the CBN governor was not in accordance with the law, adding that Emefiele could not be removed by the President without recourse to the law.

He said, “It is quite a controversial issue. Ordinarily, by virtue of Section 11 of the CBN Act of 2007, the cessation of office of the CBN governor for misconduct on account of the decision of the President can only be through removal, which has to go through the Senate and two-third of members must give their concurrence before the CBN governor can be removed. That statutory position is enshrined to guarantee the institutional independence of the CBN.

“I personally believed that Emefiele should not remain in office; he has committed several infractions, and I am not comfortable with the way he led the bank; however, on the basis of law I do not think the President can remove the CBN governor without recourse to the Senate.”

A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Norrisson Quackers, said the President had the constitutional right to give the directive, stating that the suspension could not be questioned.

Quackers added that Emefiele had overstayed the five-year statutory period he was supposed to use in office according to the CBN Act, adding that Tinubu’s body language towards the suspension could eventually result in a further dismissal of the governor.

An economist, Prof Sheriffdeen Tella, said Emefiele should not see his suspension as shocking, having thrown the economy into domestic shocks through inconsistent policies, some of which led to the death of some Nigerians.

He said, “The suspension should not be surprising even to himself. He has over time thrown the economy into domestic shocks through policy inconsistency and summersaults without an apology to anybody, even to the government he is embarrassing.

“The last ditch was the twin policy of cashless economy and currency redesign that resulted in the death of Nigerians, collapse of businesses and loss of faith in banking services.”

Suspension legal – Ozekhome
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Chief Mike Ozekhome, said Tinubu had the right to suspend Emefiele, adding that the term suspension was just a euphemism for dismissal.

He stated, “The President has all the right to suspend the CBN governor despite the independence of the apex bank. He can do so under the CBN Act. He is the overall boss and President of Nigeria.

“This is what we call the transient nature of power. Before Emefiele, there was Sanusi. The position is not hereditary. He who has the power to appoint can suspend. It is Tinubu’s right and prerogative to suspend the CBN governor for any infraction. He acted in line with the law. It is not illegal.

“Someone must have been appointed to act in his place so there is no illegality there.”

Like Sanusi, like Emefiele
On February 20, 2014, President Goodluck Jonathan ordered the suspension of the then CBN governor, Lamido Sanusi, weeks after he exposed the alleged theft of at least $20bn by officials of the petroleum ministry.

Sanusi was suspended while on an official assignment to Niamey, Niger Republic.

He later claimed to have ignored Jonathan’s directive to him to resign because the reason for the directive was baseless.

He said Jonathan asked him to quit for allegedly sending copies of the letter he wrote to the President to former President Olusegun Obasanjo and the then Rivers State governor, Chibuike Amaechi.

The spokesperson for the then President, Dr Reuben Abati, explained in a statement Sanusi was suspended because of reports by the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria claiming that the CBN governor had engaged in “financial recklessness and misconduct” but did not identify any particular financial crime.

Sanusi, who later became the Emir of Kano before he was deposed, refused to back down on allegations that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and the then Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Allsion-Madueke, could not account for over $20bn of crude oil exports carried out by the NNPC.

He was ordered to hand over to the most senior Deputy Governor of the CBN, Dr Sarah Alade, pending the conclusion of investigations into the alleged breaches of enabling laws, due process and the mandate of the CBN.

In April 2014, he won a court case against the Federal Government after he was detained and his passport confiscated by the Department of State Services but did not return to the apex bank.

FCCPC Tackles Rising Cement Prices, Investigates Alleged Manipulation

Published

on

Agency summons product manufacturers to explain pricing methodology, others
CEMENT PRICES
Kenya N7,344
Tanzania N6,528
Togo N9,180
Nigeria N15,000

Cement manufacturers are under the searchlight of the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (FCCPC) over rooftop prices of cement, the agency has confirmed.

It said the probe followed an extensive industry-wide investigation that suggested possible manipulation of product prices in the Nigerian market.

The FCCPC stated that findings from a three-month cross-border study by its Anti-competitive Practices Department (ACP), undertaken in response to widespread public complaints over the high cost of cement, provided reasonable ground for probe of the cement manufacturers.

According to the commission, subsequent to the findings, it has issued “Notices of Commencement of Investigation and Summons to Producer” to the key players in the sector.

With the summon, the companies are required to provide information and records relating to, among other matters, their pricing methodologies, production and capacity utilisation, exports and relevant commercial relationships.

Three companies account for more than 90 per cent of Nigeria’s cement production. They are: Dangote Cement Plc, HMB Nigeria Plc, formerly known as Lafarge Africa Plc. and BUA Cement Plc.

FCCPC stated that its actions were sequel to concerns raised over the comparatively high retail price of cement in the local market compared with other markets, despite the country’s substantial limestone deposits, significant domestic production capacity and reported surplus installed capacity relative to domestic consumption.

The commission explained that, beyond Nigeria, its investigations extended to markets in sub-Saharan Africa like Kenya, Tanzania and South Africa as well as Egypt, Morocco and Algeria, using metrics such as availability of limestone, the basic raw material for cement production, as well as other variables such as population, production capacity and consumption.

The commission’s survey indicated that Nigeria has installed cement production capacity of more than 60 to 65 million metric tonnes annually, while estimated domestic consumption is approximately 25 to 30 million metric tonnes.

Nigeria is also a net exporter of cement to neighbouring markets, a statement signed by its Director of Corporate Affairs, Ondaje Ijagwu, stated.

The FCCPC statement reads: “Of particular concern to the Commission is that this level of production capacity has not resulted in the downward pressure on domestic prices that might ordinarily be expected in a competitive market with substantial excess capacity.”

Executive Vice Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (EVC\CEO) of the commission Mr. Tunji Bello said the investigation reflected the commission’s responsibility to examine market conditions that have significant consequences for consumers and the wider economy.

He said: “Cement occupies a strategic place in the Nigerian economy. Its price affects the cost of building a home, developing commercial property, delivering public infrastructure and, ultimately, the cost of doing business. When concerns persist about how such an important market is functioning, the Commission has a duty to look beyond assumptions and establish the facts.” DownloadingInteractive Geographic Maps

He explained that the scrutiny is not intended to dictate the commercial decisions of businesses, rather, it is to determine whether the market is functioning competitively and whether consumers are receiving the benefits that effective competition should provide.

Bello said: “Businesses are entitled to make legitimate commercial decisions and earn returns on their investments. Competition law does not prevent that. Its purpose is to protect the competitive process, so that prices, output and other market outcomes are determined by genuine competition rather than conduct that unlawfully restricts it. That distinction is important to the work we are undertaking”.

The FCCPC spokesman provided additional details on the findings from the ACP investigation.

He said: “For instance, Kenya with 58.6 million population, 76 per cent lower than Nigeria’s population, had domestic cement demand of approximately 9.3m metric tonne per annum (MTPA) in 2025. Retail price in Nairobi is $5.40 or N7,344. Kenya is endowed with limestone. DownloadingInteractive Geographic Maps

“Tanzania, with population of 66.3 million, 72 per cent lower than Nigeria’s population, had domestic cement demand of 9.3m MTPA by 2025 with a bag of cement selling for $4.80 or N6,528.

“In Togo, which does not have limestone deposit, a bag of cement sells for $6.75 or N9,180.

“However, in Nigeria, with its huge limestone deposit and installed capacity, market intelligence reviewed by the commission showed that the retail price of a 50kg bag of cement rose significantly during the first half of 2026. DownloadingInteractive Geographic Maps

“A cement bag selling for between N9,300 and N9,700 in January was selling for between N10,500 and N13,000 by mid-year and by July, prices had risen to between N13,000 and N15,000 in some parts of the country.”

The commission noted that information provided by industry participants had identified energy costs, depreciation of the naira and its effect on imported machinery and spare parts, as well as transportation and logistics costs, among the factors contributing to cement prices.

It said: “The Commission is testing these explanations against verified information on costs, production, pricing and market conditions. However, the weight of preliminary findings provides sufficient grounds for the investigation to continue.

“Next is to determine whether prevailing cement prices can be explained by legitimate costs and market conditions, or whether there is evidence of coordinated conduct, abuse of market power, restriction of domestic supply, anti-competitive distribution practices or other conduct contrary to the provisions of the FCCPA.”

NDLEA Nabs KC Luxury, Busts Cocaine Trafficking Cartel in Lagos

The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency has dismantled an international cocaine trafficking cartel that allegedly used Nigeria as a transit hub for moving illicit drugs to the United Kingdom, other parts of Europe and Asia.

The agency also arrested the alleged Nigerian arrowhead of the syndicate, a self-styled luxury goods dealer and social media influencer, Afolabi Michael, popularly known online as “KC Luxury,” as he attempted to flee the country.

A statement by the agency spokesman, Femi Babafemi, on Tuesday, said the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of the NDLEA, Brig. Gen. Mohamed Marwa (retd.), disclosed this while addressing journalists in Lagos on Tuesday.

Marwa described the operation as one of the most significant narcotics investigations undertaken by the agency in recent times, saying it led to the seizure of 184.50kg of cocaine, the largest cocaine seizure made through a courier company in Nigeria.

According to him, the operation began with the interception of the cocaine consignment concealed for onward export through a courier logistics channel in Lagos.

He said following the seizure, he directed the constitution of a Special Investigation Team to trace the entire network behind the shipment, from the couriers to the masterminds.

Marwa said the cartel hoped to realise as much as N39bn from the consignment through its international distribution network.

“The operation began with the interception of a consignment of 184.50 kilograms of cocaine concealed for onward export through a courier logistics channel in Lagos. Given the scale of the seizure.

“I immediately directed the constitution of a Special Investigation Team, with a mandate to trace the entire network behind the shipment, from the couriers to the masterminds.

“The cartel was hoping to realise as much as N39 billion from the consignment through their international distribution network, ” the statement quoted Marwa as saying.

Working with the management of the courier company involved, Marwa said NDLEA operatives unravelled a network of intermediary companies and individuals used to process the consignment, leading to the arrest of two key suspects, among others.

“The first, Lawal Mujab Kehinde, a staff member of the logistics firm through which the cocaine was processed, was found to have a direct and sustained relationship with the cartel’s Nigerian coordinator. Investigation also established that he packages and processes consignments for the syndicate, routes them to the United Kingdom, other parts of Europe and Asia, while he was paid in cash.

“The second and more prominent suspect is Afolabi Kazeem Michael, popularly known online as “KC Luxury,” whom investigations identified as the Nigerian arrowhead of the cartel. Parading as a social media influencer and businessman dealing in gold, jewellery, and luxury goods, Afolabi used his glamorous public image to disguise a criminal enterprise moving cocaine along a pipeline stretching from South America, through Nigeria, to the United Kingdom, other parts of Europe and Asia,” Marwa said.

Marwa said Afolabi was arrested at the boarding gate of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, on August 13, 2026, after intelligence indicated that he planned to flee the country on a business-class flight to Paris.

He said the suspect was found in possession of €7,750, £2,800 and N100,000 cash, as well as expensive jewellery.

A subsequent search of his luxury apartment on Banana Island, Ikoyi, Lagos, also led to the recovery of exotic vehicles, according to the NDLEA boss.

Marwa said investigations further showed that the cartel used false identities to conceal the true consignors of its shipments and relied on financial facilitators who moved billions of naira on its behalf.

He added that the syndicate maintained criminal contacts in the UK, some of whom had been arrested by British authorities in connection with the same cartel.

The NDLEA boss linked the operation to recent successes against transnational drug networks, including the dismantling of the Switzerland-based Simon Amadi drug cartel, which allegedly laundered millions of dollars through dark web marketplaces, as well as the takedown of two Nigerian-Mexican methamphetamine syndicates operating clandestine laboratories in forests in Ogun and Oyo states.

Marwa said the latest operation demonstrated that drug traffickers could no longer hide behind luxury lifestyles, forests, ports or courier companies.

“These operations send an unmistakable signal that this Agency’s reach extends into the ports, the forests, the luxury apartments, and the departure lounges alike, and that no sanctuary exists anywhere in Nigeria for those who traffic in poison,” he said.

He noted that drug trafficking organisations had recently shifted from seaports and airports, where scrutiny had intensified, to courier and logistics companies, which they allegedly considered less monitored channels for moving narcotics across international borders.

Marwa said the dismantling of the cartel, from the interception of the cocaine consignment to the arrest of its alleged Nigerian coordinator, demonstrated the agency’s capacity to detect traffickers wherever they operated.

“There is no alternative route into or out of Nigeria for illicit drugs that this Agency cannot police,” he stated.

The NDLEA chief also described the operation as a product of international cooperation, noting the near-simultaneous arrests of suspected cartel members in Nigeria and the UK.

He commended the agency’s international partners and members of the Special Investigation Team, coordinated by the Director of Operations and General Investigation, for their professionalism in unravelling the syndicate.

Marwa warned individuals who use luxury brands, glamorous lifestyles and social media personas to conceal drug trafficking activities that the agency would track them down.

“To those who believe they can hide behind luxury brands, glamorous lifestyles, and social media personas while trafficking poison into our communities and across our borders, this Agency will find you,” he said.
