Chairman of the Senate committee, Senator Isah Jibrin, (Kogi East), accused Emefiele of unilaterally approving billions of naira across various tranches of the loans without following due process.

 

“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,” Senator Jibrin stated.

 

“We want to know the total figure of the Ways and Means. We want to know the summation of the figure.”

Despite acknowledging the Central Bank’s 70 per cent implementation of the Anchors Borrowers Programme, the committee insisted on the completion of the remaining 30 per cent.

Chairman of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means, Senator Isah Jubrin, emphasized, “Where it is absolutely necessary, we will not hesitate to invite the former CBN governor, Emefiele.”
