The CBN governor also described as false, the rumors that the apex bank was planning to convert domiciliary or dollar accounts to naira.
He said the sensitisation fair aims at providing adequate information on programmes, polices and interventions of the CBN.
“The fair is targeted at keeping the public abreast and let them know the policies, programmes and interventions of the bank and how it benefits the people. Also the sensitisation is aimed at also disabusing all rumours being peddled about distress in the system. There is nothing like that. We want Nigerians to know that there is no iota of truth whatsoever in these rumours.”
that is a good news……..
I hope those involved will testify to this statement

CBN also need to sanction those Banks in order to prevent future occurrence
Not only recovered but giving it to the owner and those concerned people
