Chidi Odinkalu, a professor of Practice in International Human Rights Law at the Fletcher School of Tufts University and a human rights campaigner from Nigeria, has declared that he has no compassion with suspended Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor Godwin Emefiele.
This was said by Odinkalu in an interview with Politics Today on Channels TV.
Emefiele was removed from office by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu last Friday.
The probe into his office and what the presidency described as anticipated reforms in the financial sector of the economy were cited as reasons for the suspension.

Later, as Emefiele attempted to board a flight out of the country, the Department of State Services detained him at the Lagos airport.
“I have no sympathy for Godwin Emefiele. I already made my opinion of him as CBN governor public. I honestly believe that what transpired when he was the CBN governor was criminal.
“Whatever fate befalls him within the legal process, I will not shed tears for him. I am not sure if he would shed a tear for himself.”
