The Department of State Services (DSS) has denied widespread claims that it has the suspended Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, in its custody.
Following the announcement of Emefiele’s suspension, the purported arrest of Emefiele by the DSS was quickly shared online.
However,DSS spokesman Peter Afunanya on Saturday, in a terse statement on Twitter, has debunked the news of Emefiele’s detention in its custody.
The post read, “Currently, Emefiele is not with the DSS.”
