Cbn allegedly diverted 5bn federation account reps

You're referring to a recent news report!

According to reports, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) allegedly diverted N5 billion from the Federation Account, which is a pool of funds managed by the Federal Government to distribute to the three tiers of government (Federal, State, and Local Governments).

The alleged diversion is said to have been made in 2020, and it's being investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). The CBN has denied any wrongdoing, but the investigation is ongoing.

The Federation Account is a critical source of revenue for the government, and any diversion of funds can have significant implications for the country's economy and public finances. The alleged diversion has sparked concerns about the transparency and accountability of the government's financial management.

It's worth noting that the CBN has a critical role in managing the country's finances, including the management of the Federation Account. However, allegations of corruption and mismanagement of public funds can undermine trust in the institution and the government as a whole.
