The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission on Thursday quizzed a former Governor of Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Prof. Charles Soludo over alleged N750million Polymer contract. There were strong indications on Thursday night that the ex-CBN Governor might be detained by the commission overnight.
The late president Umaru Yar`Adua had in company with the CBN governor launched the new N5, N10 and N50 polymer notes on September 30, 2009 at the Presidential Villa.
The circulation of the new bank notes coincided with Nigeria’s 49th Independence Anniversary day celebration. But there had been allegations of shady deal between some CBN officials and Securency International Pty of Australia.
The probe conducted by AFP had given clues which the EFCC is looking into.
