Human rights activist, Femi Falana, SAN, has broken his silence on the disputed Companies and Allied Matters Act, 2020 (CAMA), saying the law was badly drafted.

According to Falana, he had read the law and that it was badly drafted.

He said a government that set out to facilitate the ease of doing business could not have come up with a 604-page business law.

Falana stated that the law was not completely new, as registered NGOs were regulated in the past in line with the practice in all democratic societies.

He said the only addition which was objectionable was the power conferred on the commission to take over and manage NGOs on allegations of misconduct.

Falana stated that the law was illegal because it was a violation of the fundamental right to freedom of association guaranteed by section 40 of the Constitution.

In his words: “I have read the law. It was badly drafted. A government that set out to facilitate the ease of doing business could not have come up with a 604-page business law (CAMA 2020).”

“But it is not a completely new law. Registered NGOs were regulated in the past in line with the practice in all democratic societies.

“The only addition which is objectionable is the power conferred on the commission to take over and manage NGOs on allegations of misconduct.

“It is illegal because it is a violation of the fundamental right to freedom of association guaranteed by section 40 of the Constitution.”

The is how you know the government of vendetta and dictatorship.

We all know they have their target !
They know the reason why they displayed such madness by violating a section of the constitution in order to carry out their vengeful and demonic agenda.

The bill is not meant for all and sundry, but to bring down those to whom it's purposed to....

No matter what, KARMA is more powerful than Gen Buhari's CAMA !!!

And one day, karma will do it work !!!

Hian

And this is a pastor hating on others

But it is not a completely new law. Registered NGOs were regulated in the past in line with the practice in all democratic societies.

The only addition which is objectionable is the power conferred on the commission to take over and manage NGOs on allegations of misconduct.

“It is illegal because it is a violation of the fundamental right to freedom of association guaranteed by section 40 of the Constitution.”

Especially the motive behind it.

it was designed to blackmail churches

Okay

Quite baffling the nature of comments I have read as regards the CAMA bill signed into law by the executive on August 7.

The point many are missing is that the National Assembly through their processes which includes a public hearing transmitted that bill to the executive for onward signing into law.

It is common knowledge that the National Assembly has as members folks from different strata of society and the law covers diverse shades of associations without prejudice to any religion or region.

If there are grey areas from certain sections,such should be communicated without any feeling of sinister moves by the executive.

In my opinion there’s no need for unnecessary sensationalism over a matter that can challenged in the courts of law to test it against the relevant provisions of the constitution.

As regards the constitutionality of the law in relation to associational rights, the Nigerian Supreme Court will have the final say. That is the beauty.

Many law suits are preparing to erupt from this so-called new law (CAMA). Looking forward to soak myself in the wisdom of the Nigerian Courts.
