    Confusion has trailed the whereabouts of the suspended governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria ,Godwin Emefiele as the Department of State Services says he was not in its custody .

    There had been reports that Emefiele has been arrested shortly after he was suspended by president Bola Tinubu.

    But, the DSS on Saturday on his Twitter handle said ” Currently, Emefiele is not with the DSS.”

    Reacting to the DSS claim, a non-governmental Organisation, IPC Justice berated the DSS on its denial ,saying the statement appears inconsistent with the video shared on the social media .

    The statement on its twitter handle read “the DSS’s statement that Emefiele is not in their custody does not appear to be consistent with the video that was circulated on social media. The video shows Emefiele being taken into custody by men who were wearing DSS uniforms. The DSS has not offered any explanation for the discrepancy between the video and their statement.

    “The DSS’s lack of transparency is concerning. The agency is funded by public money, and it has a responsibility to be accountable to the public. The DSS’s actions in this case have raised questions about its motives and its commitment to upholding the rule of law.

    “The Nigerian public deserves to know what is happening in this case. The DSS needs to come clean and explain why Emefiele was taken into custody. The agency also needs to explain why it has been so secretive about its actions

    “The DSS’s behavior in this case is a reminder of the need for strong oversight of security agencies. The Nigerian government needs to put in place measures to ensure that security agencies are accountable to the public. The government also needs to ensure that security agencies are not used to intimidate or harass political opponents.

    “The situation surrounding Emefiele is a serious one. The DSS’s actions have raised serious questions about the rule of law in Nigeria. The Nigerian government needs to take steps to ensure that the DSS is held accountable for its actions.”

    Meanwhile, there was another media report that Emefiele was arrested by operatives of the DSS and has been
    flown from Lagos to Abuja.

    He was said to have been arrested while trying to flee Nigeria through the land border in Lagos when he was arrested by the DSS.
