President Muhammadu Buhari, on Tuesday,
sent in a Bill to the House of Representatives, seeking their passage to enable
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to freeze accounts
allegedly holding proceeds of crime, and come hard on money launderers.
The Speaker of the House of
Representatives, Rep. Femi Gbajabiamila, read the president’s letter in
plenary, with the instrument of legislation attached, at 11:35 am.
Recall that assent to the same
Bill was denied by President Buhari in 2019, worsening the tiff between the
National Assembly and the Executive.
