Judiciary autonomy: Group demands visa ban on 34 govs - Punch Newspapers

A civil society organisation, the Civil Rights Realisation and Advancement Network on Tuesday called on the United States, United Kingdom and Canadian to impose visa ban on 34 state governors, their families, and their Attorney-Generals over their refusal to observe the constitutional provision on the funding of the judiciary.

The letter titled ‘Appeal for your intervention and urgent need to impose visa ban on the 34 state governors, their families and the 34 Attorney-Generals of the respective states of Nigeria’, dated May 4, 2021, was signed by Olu Omotayo and Dr. Danjuma Gambo, President and member, National Advisory Council for the group.

The Judiciary Staff Union of Nigeria had on April 6 embarked on nationwide strike to protest against the non-implementation of financial autonomy of the Judiciary by 36 state governors. But CRRAN in the letter, enjoined the US, UK and Canada governments not to see the strike as a mere strike of court officials/workers in Nigeria, but look at it from the point of the insistence by respective state governors except the Lagos and Rivers, that Judiciary, the third arm of government should never be independent.

nigerianports has killed export business in Nigeria. What kind of country is this. They are cheating exporters and truckers electronically. This is not acceptable any longer. Stop the massive extortion in Apapa and Tincan.

'a grave assault on the Constitution' by those whose offices were created by said law should be enough proof to properly & adequately deal with the defaulters, right here and now. But let's get them VISA ban as if UK, US and Canada are the only fun getaway countries

Nice one
