President Tinubu, while commending the special investigator, Obazee, stated that security agencies are already working on the reports submitted by the Obazee-led special investigation team.
Mr. President commended Obazee for the dedication and professionalism he exercised in handling the complexities of this critical national assignment.
Obazee-led special investigation team was appointed by the president on July 28, 2023, and many shocking revelations have been made about the activities of the CBN, and its subsidiaries involving high-ranking personalities and former Governor of the CBN, Godwin Emefiele.

"The President thanks Mr. Obazee for answering the call of duty while wishing him success in his future endeavorsAttentionntions shifted to the Central Bank of Nigeria when the former Governor of the bank, Emefiele, was caught in economic manipulation leading to hardships during the last presidential election, all to deny the presidential ambition of Tinubu who later advanced to win the keenly contested election with a narrow margin.
