However, in a statement on Monday signed by CBN\u2019s Acting Director, Corporate Communications, Isa Abdulmumin, Emefiele denied that money was given to the gubernatorial candidate of the Labour Party, LP, in Lagos State, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe wish to inform members of the public that this story is completely false and malicious as the Governor does not know and has never met or even spoken with Mr Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour either in person or through proxy,\u201d the statement read in part.<\/p>\n

It added, \u201cWe wish to reiterate that the CBN Governor does not take part in politics\u201d and called for evidence to prove otherwise.<\/p>\n
