Abuja Court Orders CBN to Unfreeze Bank Accounts of 20 #EndSARS Protesters

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

The protesters were targeted by the country’s apex bank in the wake of the nationwide demonstrations in 2020.

Justice Ahmed Mohammed gave the order to unfreeze the accounts after the legal teams of both the CBN and the 20 defendants decided to end the case.
