Nigeria’s Central Bank filed allegations of terrorism at a federal high court in Abuja on Thursday, freezing the accounts of #EndSARS protest organizers.

The Apex bank convinced one Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Abuja Division of the Federal High Court that 20 bank accounts belonging to protest organizers were linked to terrorism.

Court fillings first sighted by the Punch and obtained by Newswatch24tv revealed that the Apex bank accused peaceful protest organizers of violating section 13(1 & 2) of the terrorism prevention act of 2013 (as amended).

Excerpt from the CBN’s charge, which is led by disgraced former Attorney General (Michael Aondoakaa), read:

“The nature of the transactions undertaken through the defendants’ accounts are of suspected terrorism financing in contravention of Section 13(1)(a)and(b) of the Terrorism (Prevention)(Amendment) Act, 2013 and Regulation 31(2)(a)and (3)(b) of the Central Bank of Nigeria Anti-Money Laundering/Combating the Financing of Terrorism Regulations, 2013,” Punch cited excerpts of the bank charges.

Although there are no clear links between the original #EndSARS organizers and any International terror network. It is unclear how the Nation’s Apex bank arrived at its conjecture.

The ex-parte order blocking the bank accounts was granted for an initial 90 days, but those affected have already filed separate charges to revoke it. It is also important to note that the CBN can renew the ex-parte order even after the initial 90 days elapses.

Since when did the CBN become the interpreter of the law, and since when did protest becomes terrorist activity.


May God deliver this nation from this clueless and inept things. I only hope they'll make the mistake of adding the accounts of Davido, WizKid, Burna Boy, PSquare, Falz and the entire celebrities so things can quickly get shaken up again. Fulls

The federal government keeps doing dumb things every day

This government is making our hearts hardened every day. The next action might be bloody and the family of this people might be the target since empathy and sense seems not to exist in their brains. It's not a threat it's just a warning human nature. They make promises and fail. People are dying people are warning them but still failing to listen, but instead make life tougher for the people.
Trying to use some people as an example could be very dangerous who ever is taking these actions love not this government. Abacha was worst look at what happened at the end.

May be,may be not, time shall tell

Bleep Nigeria. Nigeria will hardly recover from Buhari's rule.
