SUSPENDED Central Bank of Nigeria Governor, Godwin Emefiele has unilaterally been operating a separate foreign reserve account on behalf of the country without the knowledge of the Federal Government, a security report has revealed.
Emefiele, according to the report, masterminded the creation of two foreign reserve accounts for Nigeria with the second, which the Federal Government was not aware of, having about $47 billion.
CBN under Emefiele, the report further revealed, has also been running no fewer than 527 private bank accounts with public monies running to several billion stashed in them without the government being in the know.
These allegations, amongst several others against Emefiele, are contained in a security report submitted by the Department of State Services (DSS) to former President Muhammadu Buhari since January this year.
The report handed over to former President Buhari by the DSS Director-General, Yusuf Bichi, in January, it was learnt, contains more damning evidence against the suspended apex bank boss over a series of fresh allegations.
