Prof, Charles Soludo
The former Governor of the Central Bank, Chukwuma Soludo was yesterday questioned by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Soludo who contested the Anambra State governorship election three years ago was at the commission till about sunset on Thursday.
EFCC spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, is however yet to make an official statement, but sources say Soludo was invited over issues bordering on corruption.
He was fingered in some illegal payments made to CBN officials by Securency, the Australian Company that got the contract to print polymer notes while Mr. Soludo was the Governor.
The company was earlier investigated by Australian authorities. Some of its personnel allegedly admitted paying bribe to CBN officials to get the contract.
