LEADERSHIP gathered that Emefiele was arrested in Lagos and flown to Abuja on Saturday.

This is coming after initial denial by the DSS spokesperson, Dr Peter Afunanya, that Emefiele was not in DSS custody earlier on Saturday.

Meanwhile, in a statement at about 2:18pm on Saturday afternoon, the DSS spokesperson confirmed that the suspended CBN governor was now in their custody in Abuja for some investigative reasons.
