A Federal High Court in Abuja has asked the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to unfreeze the bank accounts of 20 #EndSARS Campaigners.

Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Federal High Court Abuja, had on October 20, 2020 okayed the freezing of the bank accounts of 20 EndSars Campaigners following an exparte motion filed by the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria.

In December 2020, The Central Bank of Nigeria asked the Court not to unfreeze the accounts of the #EndSARS Campaigners because they were under probe for terrorism financing.

A Federal High Court in Abuja has asked the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to unfreeze the bank accounts of 20 #EndSARS protesters.

Ahmed Mohammed, the Judge, gave the order on Wednesday after counsel to the CBN and the legal representative of the protesters agreed to settle out of court.

The CBN froze the bank accounts in the heat of the #EndSARS campaign.

The apex bank had secured a court order to effect the freeze which elapsed last Tuesday.

In a saner clime this endsars protesters will be celebrated as heroes which they are. but under this present Junta they are being hunted by the state while Boko Haram terrorists are celebrated with exotic aso ebi sowed for them and are spoiled with sumptuous meals and drinks with amnesty given to them. under the lifeless Buhari, abnormalities are now the new normal. what a shame

In which 'saner' clime will a state or a government celebrate people that protested against them?

Always want to oppress and silence the voice of freedom. Is this what democracy is all about ?

This mistake Nigerians made will never be forgotten in a hurry, not even in the next century putting this govt in power.

The Worst CBN Government In Years angry

In Fact I Never Cared Much About Who The CBN Governor Was Until This Godwin Emefiele Entity.

While Professor Charles Soludo & Sanusi Lamido Sanusi Were Famous & Proactive; Godwin Emefiele Is Just Damn Infamous & Counteractive
