The chairman of the committee, Senator Isah Jibrin , said former governor of CBN Godwin Emefiele unilaterally signed billions of naira in the approval of different tranches of the loan without following due process. Senator Jibrin mentioned that Emefiele illegally signed billions of naira in 13 documents. He disclosed this on Tuesday during an interactive session with the CBN team led by Bala Bello, one of the deputy governors of the apex bank.
“The committee of governors ought to be the signatories to the ways and means account but in the document we have here, the governor signed billions of naira in about 13 places. “We want to know the total figure of the ways and means. We want to know the summation of the figure,” Senator Jibrin said. “On the Anchor Borrowers Programme, you have done well. You did about 70 per cent, but we must ensure the completion of the remaining 30 per cent.
