In a shocking discovery, it has been revealed that Godwin Emefiele, the suspended Governor of Nigeria’s Central Bank, has established multi-million dollar companies in the United Kingdom. This information has emerged from the British government’s National archives on a business data registry.
The companies that Godwin Emefiele is associated with cover a wide range of industries, including Hedge Fund Investment, Real Estate, Mental Health & Substance Abuse, Arts, and Disaster & Emergency Management Academy. These companies have names such as Coats Investment Group Limited, Emefiele Global Ltd, and Ndidi Emefiele Studios Limited.
It is alarming to note that these companies have been established by Godwin Emefiele, using his wife, brothers, sisters, cousins, and nephews as directors. This raises questions about the propriety and legality of these businesses.
Coats Investment Group Limited is registered under Margaret Dumbiri Emefiele, the wife of Godwin Emefiele, and is located at Flat 3 Dexter Court, Dairy Close, London, England. Emefiele Global Ltd is registered under Emefiele Sunday, a family member, and is located at 45 Rubery Field Close, Rednal, Birmingham, England. Ndidi Emefiele Studios Limited is registered under Emefiele Ezumba, another family member, and is located at Building 4, Unit D Royal Ordnance Depot, Weedon, Northampton, England. There are also five other companies in London associated with Godwin Emefiele.
This discovery has raised serious concerns among Nigerians, who are demanding a thorough investigation by the relevant authorities. Dotun Adedayo, an Economic & Financial Specialist based in Houston, Texas, USA, has called for the Department of State Services (DSS), Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), and the Nigeria Police Force to conduct a comprehensive investigation into these revelations. He believes that if any laws have been violated by Godwin Emefiele while in office, they should be brought to light.
As this scandal unfolds, it is clear that Nigerians are eager to uncover the truth and hold those responsible accountable. The investigation into Godwin Emefiele’s business activities is of utmost importance to ensure transparency and integrity in Nigeria’s financial sector.
