In the last few years, the word ‘Jappa’, which means leaving Nigeria, has gained prominence.
The governor of the Nigerian Central Bank (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has reportedly jumped on the ‘Jappa’ bandwagon as has been reportedly granted study leave by President Muhammadu Buhari.
According to Sahara Reporters, this will give opportunity for Emefiele to flee the country before Buhari leaves office on May 29, 2023, comes amid corruption and terrorism-financing allegations against him.
Recall that the Department of State Services (DSS) recently accused Emefiele of sabotaging the economy, financing terrorism and committing other economic crimes.
The secret police had also attempted to arrest and detain Emefiele in the past over the allegations against him.
Sahara Reporters stated that the DSS is not happy about the prospect of seeing the CBN governor evade justice.
