In the hypothetical scenario of Emefiele being in China, Bayo Onanuga suggests that he would potentially face severe consequences, possibly even a firing squad.

Bayo Onanuga remarked that if Godwin Emefiele, the former Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, were in China, he would potentially be subjected to a firing squad. The statement followed revelations from a presidential panel investigating the CBN’s activities during Emefiele’s tenure, which exposed unauthorized investments of Nigeria’s funds in 593 foreign bank accounts across the United States, China, and the United Kingdom. Onanuga expressed on X, “If Godwin Emefiele and his associates had engaged in these serious misappropriations in China, they would likely be undergoing the firing squad for high treason by now.”
