The presidency has just circulated the statement below announcing the placement of 50 high-profile Nigerians on travelling restrictions.

The individuals, whose identities were not disclosed, include those whose assets, valued at N50million and above, are subject of corruption investigation and litigation.

The statement by presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu, said the measure is part of the implementation of Executive Order Number 6 which seeks to ensure “that all assets within a minimum value of N50 million or equivalent, subject to investigation or litigation are protected from dissipation by employing all available lawful means, pending the final determination of any corruption-related matter.”

Mr Shehu added that the financial transactions of these persons of interest are also being monitored by relevant agencies to ensure the assets are not dissipated and that such persons do not interfere with,investigation and litigation processes.

READ FULL STATEMENT BELOW

STATE HOUSE PRESS RELEASE

PRESIDENT BUHARI DIRECTS IMPLEMENTATION OF EO 6 IN FULL FORCE
[b][/b]

Following the instant judicial affirmation of the constitutionality and legality of the Executive Order 6 (EO6), President Muhammadu Buhari has mandated the Attorney-General of the Federation and the Minister of Justice to implement the Order in full force.

To this end, a number of enforcement procedures are currently in place by which the Nigeria Immigration Service and other security agencies have placed no fewer than 50 high profile persons directly affected by EO6 on watch-list and restricted them from leaving the county pending the determination of their cases.

Also, the financial transactions of these persons of interest are being monitored by the relevant agencies to ensure that the assets are not dissipated and such persons do not interfere with, nor howsoever corrupt the investigation and litigation processes.

It is instructive to note that EO6 was specifically directed to relevant law enforcement agencies to ensure that all assets within a minimum value of N50 million or equivalent, subject to investigation or litigation are protected from dissipation by employing all available lawful means, pending the final determination of any corruption-related matter.

The Buhari administration reassures all well-meaning and patriotic Nigerians of its commitment to the fight against corruption, in accordance with the 1999 Constitution (as amended) and the general principles of the Rule of Law.

Accordingly, this administration will uphold the rule of law in all its actions and the right of citizens would be protected as guaranteed by the Constitution.

We, therefore, enjoin all Nigerians to cooperate with the law enforcement authorities towards ensuring a successful implementation of the Executive Order 6 which is a paradigm-changing policy of the Federal Government in the fight against corruption.

Garba Shehu

Senior Special Assistant to the President

There are four habits that people do not want to see in their leaders. These are:

* Complaining
* Comparing
* Criticising, and
* Condemning.

Unfortunately, it is as if President Buhari went to the school of bad leadership to learn these negative traits.

Which court order for an executive order ratified by the courts? Were you on exile when he signed the executive order and the courts gave him full backing just a week ago?

The courts said in line with the constitution/existing laws with 'evidence'. This is just blanket banning. It should be debated all the way to the supreme court cos anyone can buy or coerce a ruling at the lower courts

And this is within the laws of the constitution . while under investigation the same funds being Investigated must be frozen to avoid depletion and they also have the right to restrict movement of same persons in order to avoid them absconding.

Its all within the confines of the law

We copy the spirits of common and American law. No one is treated as guilty without a court ruling. Until the courts decide otherwise they are presumed innocent. If a flight risk they are bonded with equal or higher sums for the crimes they are accused of/with. They can also surrrender their passports but are usually returned for emergency treatments abroad (Dino Melaye V Police IG). That's why we have precedents. And in law making we do not repeat existing laws, tautology, Buhari himself has rejected NASS bills with the same argument on advise from his AG.
