In the ongoing trial of former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Godwin Emefiele, before Justice Hamza Muazu of the Federal Capital Territory High Court in Abuja, a forensic analyst has verified that the documents utilized to seek a $6.2 million payment for foreign election observers were forged.
The witness, Bamaiyi Meriga, presented by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), informed the court that upon conducting a forensic examination of the contested documents, he identified clear indications of signature forgery and discrepancies in the seal of execution compared to the authentic document.
