Just In: DSS rearrests Godwin Emefiele after cl@sh with NCS

Operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS), on Tuesday, July 25, rearrested suspended Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele.

DSS rearrested him after a tussle with officials of the Nigerian Correctional Service (NCS) at the Federal High Court in Ikoyi, Lagos.

Channels Television reports that Justice Nicholas Oweibo admitted the embattled and suspended apex bank chief to bail in the sum of the N20m.

The judge also ordered that Emefiele be remanded at the correctional center pending the fulfillment of the bail conditions.

After the court ruling, the suspended CBN governor holed up inside the courtroom with his lawyers, according to the report.

However, when the prison officials moved to take Emefiele into custody pending the fulfillment of his bail conditions, the secret police challenged them and it led to a fi¥ht.

Amid the cl@sh, Emefiele’s lawyers “reluctantly allowed the DSS disobey court order and take custody of their client” to avoid a g¥n b@ttle.

At exactly 03:03pm, DSS operatives led the suspended CBN governor out of the courtroom into their waiting vehicle.
