The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Rep Femi Gbajabiamila, has threatened to issue a warrant of arrest against the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, if he fails to appear before the House next Tuesday.
Gbajabiamila’s threat followed a response via another letter from the apex Bank, intimating the House of Emefiele’s inability to honour the invitation sent to him on the Naira Withdrawal Limit Policy.
