The statement reads, “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu must show the world that the arrest and detention of Mr. Godwin Emefiele for over a month by the DSS is not political by directing the Director General of the DSS to immediately comply and bring into full effect the orders of Justice Bello Kawu so as to dispel the already popular opinion that the arrest and detention were more for political reasons than any other thing.”
“Since the 9th of June when President Tinubu suspended Mr. Emefiele, the Naira has been on a free fall though the government claims it has floated the currency. The Pound Sterling which exchanged for about N930 before Mr. Emefiele left office now exchanges for over N1,035 crossing the N1,000 mark for the first time in the country’s history. The focus of the President should be on the failing economy of the country and not on political vendetta,” Okere stated.NYSC Portal
