AGF Malami queries Emefiele on alleged Forex fraud in CBN

The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami (SAN), has said there are corruption allegations in the Central Bank of Nigeria’s foreign exchange allocation and transactions.

Malami added, on Wednesday, the fraud allegations were “supported by several documents.”

The PUNCH sighted a subtle query issued by Malami to the Governor of CBN, Mr. Godwin Emefiele, demanding “prompt response” to the allegations.
