CBN Governor, Sanusi Lamido Accuses Pastor Enoch Adeboye Of Abetting Corruption
The battle line is now drawn between the Governor of the CentralBankofNigeria, SanusiLamidoSanusi, and the GeneralOverseer of the RedeemedChristianChurchofGod, PastorEnochAdeboye, with the CBN top shot accusing the revered man of God of aiding and abetting corruption by shielding the former CEO of IntercontinentalBankPLC, ErasmusAkingbola, a member of Adeboye’s church, who has been indicted for various financial fraud while he held sway at the bank before it was liquidated.
The CBN front man claimed that PastorAdeboye’s involvement in the deal and his intervention in getting the judge who was handling the case, JusticeHabeebAbiru, promoted to the CourtofAppeals has truncated the case as that enabled Akingbola escape to the UK as soon as the EFCC indicated their desire to try him.
He was later forced to return to Nigeria, but his prosecution soon fizzled out, due to Adeboye’s interference, according to Sanusi.
