Online images of Godwin Emefiele, the governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), testifying before the House of Representatives’ special committee looking into the shortage of the new naira notes have surfaced.
The CBN governor finally decided to address the legislators on Tuesday regarding the cashless policy and deadline for the replacement of old currency notes after repeated unsuccessful attempts to appear before the committee.

The CBN chief finally showed up before the committee today after the House threatened to issue an arrest warrant today to force him to appear under the terms of section 89(1)(d) of the Constitution.

Emefiele entered a brief executive session with the Committee led by Hon. Ado Doguwa after arriving with a few CBN directors and his assistants.

After spending more than an hour behind closed doors, the meeting, which is taking place at the National Assembly compound, started about 12:05 p.m.Recall that on Thursday, House Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila said he wouldn’t think twice about asking Usman Baba, the Inspector General of Police, to issue an arrest warrant for Emefiele in order to compel the head of the central bank to appear before the House.

On Tuesday during plenary, Gbajabiamila is anticipated to sign the arrest warrant against the CBN governor.

Ben Kalu, the chairman of the House Committee on Media and Public Affairs, confirmed the news in an interview with the Tribune.

Kalu disclosed that the majority leader in the house, Alhassan Ado-Doguwa met with President Muhammadu Buhari where he briefed on the need for Emefiele to appear before the house over the new cash withdrawal limit and cash swap policy.
He further stated that Emefiele had always acted without briefing the Parliament on the policies reeled out.

Kalu noted that it became important to compel him to brief the Parliament in line with Section 8 subsection 4 of the CBN Act.

Let's see the outcome

Oya oga talk.
Why new money never plenty

Simple

The man can never bow to pressure and blackmail. Nigeria has to move forward. Politicians should be made to work for the people and not for their cronies through whom they continue to colonize the masses.

Emefiele is on the right track.

Ride on Governor Emefiele, urchins must urchinate.

He has so many cases to answer. Where is the stamp duty money? Over 300n Naira.

How come he visited the HoR and the speaker didn't ask security operatives to pick him up?

Visited him you say? He was summoned rather, and was told if he didn't appear this time as he had been doing before he would be arrested.

Emiefile knew this was no joke this time and he showed up. They have the constitutional power to sack Buhari how much less ordinary CBN governor that enjoys no immunity.

Now that Emefiele is here oya Reps make una roast am chop.

He doesn't have the power! How was he going to achieve it without running it through thr president? Who do the heads of the various armed forces answer to? The president and the president alone! Gbajabiamila was simply blowing hot.

All those guys will pay for their evils one day.

Gbaja where is the warrant of arrest
