Reacting via a post on his X handle, Senator Sani wrote:

“The CBN Private investigator did a good job so far. The only thing missing in the damning report circulating is the names of other collaborators or accomplices.”

Legit.ng reported earlier that the CBN ex-governor, Godwin Emefiele, is facing allegations of executing the naira redesign initiative without obtaining explicit approval from former President Muhammadu Buhari.

This revelation comes from a report by Jim Obazee, a private investigator appointed by President Bola Tinubu to examine the CBN and associated entities.

The report indicates that Emefiele, along with Sabiu Tunde ‘Yusuf,’ an aide and nephew of the former president, implemented the policy.

“Hence, that is not a good job if the investigators are shielding the collaborators or accomplices. I ask again why are @officialEFCC and @icpcnigeria being retained in Nigeria?”

“The former CBN governor shouldn’t be made a scapegoat; hence, other collaborators should be brought to book.”
