The Presidency says many approvals for the release of funds within the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) under Godwin Emefiele did not have the signature of former President Muhammadu Buhari.

Speaking in an interview, the Special Adviser to President Bola Tinubu on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, said the last administration had to take some responsibilities for some of the things that happened in the apex bank under Emefiele.

Ngelale said that while Buhari had achievements in other areas such as infrastructure and ease of doing business, his negligence in what was happening in the CBN brought the economy to where it is today.

He said that even though President Tinubu supported Buhari’s administration, he has not hesitated to reveal to Nigerians things that were not healthy to the economy that happened under his predecessor
