Prosecution Witness Alleges $400,000 Transaction Involving Former CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele

In a dramatic twist in the ongoing trial of the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, the 7th prosecution witness, Mr John Adetola, has made startling revelations about a $400,000 transaction allegedly carried out on behalf of the former CBN chief.

Adetola, who identified himself as an Executive Assistant to Emefiele, took the stand on Thursday to testify before Justice Rahman Oshodi of the Ikeja High Court. He disclosed that his role as Executive Assistant granted him direct access to Emefiele and involved tasks such as managing office correspondence, attending to visitors, and performing other duties as assigned by his boss.
