The Central Bank of Nigeria has prayed a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja not to unfreeze the accounts of #EndSARS protesters.
The CBN told Justice Ahmed Mohammed-led panel yesterday, that the accounts of the protesters are still under probe for financing terrorism.
The apex bank stated that it duly obtained a court order on November 4, 2020 to freeze the accounts of the #EndSARS protesters.
“The bank accounts frozen by this honourable court in this case are suspected to be involved in transactions bordering on terrorism financing and that the said accounts are being investigated by the Central Bank of Nigeria in that regard,” part of the affidavit read.
