Godwin Emefiele
The Senate President, Godswill Akpabio, said on Sunday that the Bola Tinubu administration inherited an economic mess from former Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emefiele, unsure even what charges to bring against him.
Akpabio assured Nigerians of efforts to improve security and living standards, as he appealed for patience.
The President made this known at Senator Barinada Mpigi’s Thanksgiving service in Koroma, Rivers State, stressing that the economic situation left by Emefiele was “terrible.”
He said; “We did not even know what to charge him with – whether for putting foam on top of the bill, illegal firearm possession, printing notes without income. I don’t know what we are going to charge him with.”
“But what we can say is that yes there is hunger today because of the policies and actions that they took, and we recognise that, and I think every political party should recognise that there is hunger, and we are battling to ensure that Nigerians sleep with their eyes closed,” he stated.
