Godwin Emefiele, suspended governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), arrived at the federal high court in Ikoyi, Lagos, around 9:18am on Tuesday, clutching the Bible.
The King James Version (KJV) of the holy book was tucked inside a red paperback.
Emefiele is expected to be charged with “illegal possession of firearms” before presiding judge Nicholas Oweibo.
On June 9, President Bola Tinubu suspended Emefiele and asked him to transfer his responsibilities to Folashodun Adebisi Shonubi, deputy governor, operations directorate.
The day after, the DSS announced that Emefiele was in its custody for “some investigative reasons”.
See some photos as Emefiele made his way into the courtroom today.
