Group sues Lai Mohammed for not releasing names of treasury looters

Nigeria's Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, and his ministry has been sued by the Socio-Economic Rights Accountability Project, SERAP, for failing to reveal the names of the country's treasury looters.



A number of weeks ago, the Minister issued a statement which reveals the amount of money the Nigerian government had recovered from treasury looters, but failed to name the culprits.

SERAP sued Lai Mohammed after sending a Freedom of Information request to him to release the names of the looters, which he ignored.

In the suit filed filed at the Federal High Court, Ikoyi on Friday, SERAP said it wants Mohammed "to widely disseminate, including on a dedicated website, information about the names of high ranking public officials from whom public funds were recovered since May 2015, and the circumstances under which stolen public funds were returned."

No date has been fixed for the hearing of the suit.
