The management and boards of the affected four banks and the CBN Special Investigator were in attendance.

The official communication from the CBN is still being awaited.

The development was consequent upon the recommendation of the Special Investigator, Jim Obazee, appointed by President Bola Tinubu to probe CBN activities.

The report had indicted the immediate past governor of CBN, Godwin Emefiele, of using cronies to purchase some of the banks without evidence of payment.

Also, Obazee said the purchase of some of the banks didn’t follow due process.

Details shortly…
