The secret police allegedly attempted to arrest him over allegations of terrorism financing and fraud.
A source that spoke with Daily Sun, however, stated that the Service Chief got approval for the jet that brought Emefiele back to the country to land at the private wing of the Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, where military men had been positioned.
DSS operatives were prevented from arresting Emefiele due to the presence of the military men.
A source claimed that top officials at the DSS have given Emefiele a resignation condition for him to be let off the controversy.
Meanwhile, the 9th Senate led by Ahmad Lawan has asked the CBN Governor to submit documents relating to the Ways and Means of the apex bank.
