The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), failed to produce Godwin Emefiele, the embattled former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), at the Abuja High Court on Monday, November 6.
Emefiele was not produced in court despite an order of a trial judge, Justice Olukayode Adeniyi for EFCC to produce him in court for hearing of his motion on fundamental rights enforcement.
Justice Adeniyi had last week ordered the anti-graft agency to release the former CBN governor unconditionally or produce him in court for the hearing of a motion determining his bail.
This follows his arrest by the EFCC shortly after his release from the custody of the Department of State Services (DSS) in late October.
The court has now adjourned till Wednesday, November 8 for a hearing of Emefiele’s motion on notice and for his counsel to provide additional documents.
It also restated its November 2 order for Emefiele’s unconditional release, or to produce him in court on Wednesday.

Popular Nigerian life coach and writer, Solomon Buchi has taken to ‘X’ to advise people intending to get married in this ‘hyper-digital era’.
According to him, people should make sure they marry someone that is not moved by Twitter and Instagram takes.
He also advised people to marry someone with real-life standards, because social media users are so unkind.
Posting via his X handle, Buchi wrote;
‘’If you must marry in this hyper digital era, marry someone that’s not moved by Twitter and Instagram takes.
My emphasis on this is deliberate.
Imagine marrying someone that will judge you through the lens of what demonic online in-laws say? Omo.
My wife and I have never fought over what Twitter people said about us. All the evil narratives, mischaracterizations and negative comments have never triggered an argument. Never. She’s never acted out on what people said online, neither have I. And I’m grateful. But sometimes I think of marriages where couples take social media comments seriously.
Again, marry someone who has real-life standards, because social media users are so unkind.”
