The judgment was delivered by Justice
Hadiza Shagari following a Freedom of
Information suit number: FHC/
CS/964/2016 brought by Socio-Economic
Rights and Accountability Project, SERAP.
The suit followed disclosure last year by
the FG, of funds recovered from some
high-ranking public and private
individuals. In her judgment, Ms. Shagari
agreed with SERAP that “the FG has a
legally binding obligation to tell Nigerians
the names of all suspected looters of the
public treasury past and present.
