Emefiele: EFCC to Appeal N100m Fine 

 

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, has expressed dissatisfaction with a judgment of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, High Court awarding N100 million damages against it in favour of a former governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN,  Godwin Emefiele.


Justice O.A Adeniyi, on Monday, January 8, 2024  fined the Commission after he ruled that the Commission's detention of Emefiele in the course of his investigation was a violation of his right to liberty.
