The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission EFCC, on Wednesday, in Abuja bowed to the order of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in the matter of former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria CBN, Godwin Emefiele.
Emefiele
who has been in the custody of the Federal Government security agencies for
over 150 days was brought to Court in compliance with the order of Justice
Olukayode Adeniyi.
The
former CBN Governor who dressed in yellow Babariga with a Hausa cap to match
entered the courtroom around 12;30 with a retinue of EFCC operatives providing
security around him.
His
friends and relatives had besieged the court premises waiting for the arrival
of the Judge for a hearing in his fundamental human rights suit.
Justice
Adeniyi had on Monday reaffirmed his order that the detained former CBN
governor be brought to Court today November 8 for the purpose of admitting him
to bail.
He
had in the alternative directed the anti-graft agency to on its own grant bail
to Emefiele or allow the court to do so in line with provisions of the law on
fundamental human rights.
