The organisation also maintained that if the government and the CBN disclosed measures they are taking to implement the Supreme Court judgment, it would also enable Nigerians to monitor and scrutinise the level of compliance with the decision.
The letter reads in part, “We would be grateful if the requested information and recommended measures are implemented within seven days of receiving and publishing this letter. If we have not heard from you by then, SERAP shall take all appropriate legal actions to compel your government to comply with our requests.
“SERAP is concerned about the persistent disobedience of court orders by your government and the apparent lack of respect for constitutional and international rule of law obligations. “The Nigerian Constitution, Freedom of Information Act, and human rights treaties to which the country is a state party rest on the principle that citizens should have access to information regarding their government’s activities.
