Renowned activist, Omoyele Sowore, has made a bold assertion, suggesting that the esteemed Godwin Emefiele, a former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, possesses the capability to dismantle the political reign of ex-President Muhammadu Buhari, along with his entire familial lineage.
In a recent discourse, Omoyele has expounded upon the potential ramifications of prosecuting Emefiele, asserting that such an action could potentially dismantle the political influence wielded by President Buhari and his esteemed family.
In a stunning revelation, it has been disclosed that a number of esteemed Senators, who happen to be members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), as well as individuals closely related to President Buhari through marriage, are at risk of facing severe consequences should Emefiele be subjected to prosecution.
In a recent tweet, Sowore astutely observed that the allegations leveled against the erstwhile Central Bank of Nigeria governor merely constitute a preliminary “holding charge.”
As per Sowore’s assertion, it is imperative to shed light on the operational tactics employed by the esteemed Department of State Services (DSS) and their recent detainment of Godwin Emefiele, the distinguished Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria. It is crucial to note that the aforementioned act of detainment should not be misconstrued as a direct consequence of the severity of his alleged transgressions. Rather, it is a calculated move orchestrated by influential figures in positions of authority, with the primary objective of exerting control and influence over him.

In the event that @GodwinIEmefiele were to face legal prosecution for his alleged involvement in a multitude of financial crimes, economic sabotage, money laundering, and purported association with terrorism financing, including engaging in FX round tripping, the potential ramifications would extend far beyond his own person. Such a scenario could potentially implicate not only @MBuhari, the esteemed leader of the nation, but also his entire family, in-laws, members of his inner circle, numerous prominent figures within the @OfficialAPCNg party, state governors, Senators, media practitioners, high-ranking military and police officials, as well as individuals within the esteemed organizations of @OfficialDSSNG, @officialEFCC, and even civil society at large.
The potential ramifications would be significant, as numerous facets of society would experience a precipitous decline. At present, the delicate process of negotiations remains in progress, serving as a mere interim measure to maintain the status quo until the eventual release of the individual in question is authorized.
