If charged, Emefiele will bring down Buhari and his family, according to Sowore

Sowore stated that if the federal government brought charges against Emefiele, many people, including governors, would support him.Omoyele Sowore, the presidential candidate of the African Action Congress (AAC) in the 2023 general elections, has suggested that if the Federal Government prosecutes suspended Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor Godwin Emefiele for financial crimes, many influential Nigerians, including former President Muhammadu Buhari, will be indicted. Sowore argued that Emefiele's extended arrest by the Department of State Service (DSS) has nothing to do with the nature of his alleged offences and is instead a conspiracy to utilize him as a scapegoat for those in power. Should the government of President Bola Tinubu decide to bring charges against the apex court, the media mogul-turned-politician remarked Additionally, the AAC presidential candidate alleged that other beneficiaries of the supposed financial crimes committed by Emefiele included governors, members of the ruling party, senators, and even people in the DSS, among others.
