CBN Governor, Emefiele joins race, buys N100m presidential APC forms

The Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Godwin Emefiele, has bought the presidential forms of the ruling, All Progressives Congress, APC, for the 2023 elections.

It was gathered that the CBN governor bought the N100 million forms from the party in Abuja, on Friday morning.

This was a clarification to the speculations on his desire to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari.

Recall that Emefiele was appointed by the former President, Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, some hours after suspending his predecessor, Sanusi Lamido.

In 2019, Emefiele made history as the first CBN governor to be reappointed.
