A Federal High Court in Abuja has ruled that magistrate courts do not have the powers to issue orders freezing bank accounts.From the news, the IG never issued order to freeze any account, he only presented the order document. Hence, the name of Police or IG was not included in the judgment order as quoted in the post. It will be good to remove IG from the thread title as it does not represent the content of the thread. It should read "Magistrate Courts have no..." 11 Likes 1 Share |

A magistrate lacks the powers to make bankers orders and/or order freezing or enabling a post no debit on bank accounts pursuant to non-existent/repealed section 7 of the Banker's Order Act 1847." Consequently, the judge ordered the four banks "to unfreeze the accounts of the plaintiffs and desist from further giving effect to the non-existent bankers order served on the prompting of the 5th and 6th defendants (IG and the IG monitoring unit)". This one for me. 2 Likes |
