The United States, the United Kingdom, and other international bodies have been alerted over an alleged plot to assassinate the Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emefiele. Comrade Timi Frank, the former deputy national publicity secretary of the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC), made this allegation in a statement issued in Abuja.
According to the Daily Independent report, Frank called on the European Union, World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to intervene and save Emefiele from an imminent attack on his life and job.
Frank’s allegation is coming hours after rumours making the rounds say that the Department of State Services (DSS) is planning to arrest the CBN governor because he was financing terrorism.
Frank said: “I have it on good authority that some members of the present administration led by the APC in collaboration with some security agencies are planning to assassinate Governor Emefiele. “To me, it’s a plot to destabilise next year’s general elections. I plead with the nation’s security agencies and their cohorts to halt this devious plan in the country’s interest.”
