Court Orders EFCC to Pay ₦3 Million to Margaret Emefiele
A Federal High Court in Lagos has sharply criticized the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) for declaring Margaret Emefiele, wife of former CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele, wanted.
Judge Deinde Dipeolu ruled in Margaret’s favor, ordering the EFCC to pay her ₦3 million in damages for infringing on her rights.
The EFCC had declared her wanted for alleged money laundering without a valid court order.
