UAE gave Nigeria govt names of BH sponsors who were well known, but nothing was done. The bandits that kidnapped General Tsiga will use bank s and even post tit-tok videos, still go free and be recycled as repentant and de-radicalized terrorists. Make una continue.

So Ekpa kept bank in Nigeria.
I thought his followers said he has rejected Nigeria and returned Nigerian Medals he won in sports, but he failed to return bank s.

Add Fulani bandits and Boko haram too

Nigeria, a very absurd country.they even refused to release list of confirmed terrorist sponsors sent by UAE, not to talk if arresting them

How much is in his ?

If he was operating the , why didn't they freeze his when he was terrorizing southeast?

Nna eh, ipob is a real business venture; they have finished raking igbos their hard earned currencies.This is good, money frozen from them will be enough to pay kanu and other ipob feeding prison'bills. No wonder they don't want to leave the business of killing igbos with Igbo donations. What is the real name of @ gidiggidy, I want to confirm if his real name is there because he seems to be feeding through one of these s directly or indirectly. I wonder how @gidiggidy will now get money to buy data to defend ipob on Nairaland especially since all major networks don't easily do FREE megabytes again.

The NSC said it recommended the specific individuals and entities “for designation following their involvement with terrorism financing.”

“The Honourable Attorney General of the Federation, with the approval of the President, has thereupon designated the following individuals and entities to be listed on the Nigeria Sanctions List,” the NSC stated, rolling out sanctions against the indicted persons “in accordance with Section 54 of the Terrorism (Prevention and Prohibition) Act, 2022.”

It recommended that all funds, assets and any other economic resources belonging to the designated persons and entities be immediately frozen without prior notice.

The frozen assets or actions taken against the indicted persons and entities are to be reported to the NSC afterwards.

“Immediately file a Suspicious Transactions Report to the NFIU for further analysis on the financial activities of such an individual or entity; and report as a Suspicious Transactions Report to the NFIU, all cases of name matching in financial transactions prior to or after receipt of this list,” the committee stated.

The committee clarified that the sanctions affect “All funds or other assets that are owned or controlled by the designated persons and entities, and not only those that are tied to a particular act, plot, or threat of terrorism or terrorism financing.”

Assets and funds tly owned or controlled [directly or indirectly] by the indicted persons and entities shall be frozen as well, the committee explained.

he was terrorizing your papppa house not south east

Dem don too chop their gullible followers money tire

They should use those money to compensate those terrorist groups killed their families.

How much did the idiot have in the , this guy and Kanu are shocking my heart.

I was happy when I heard the FG was finalizing his extradition from Finland to Nigeria....

What's happening?

He needs to return to Nigeria and be visiting court from time to time and be getting frustrated....

But bandits in the north have active bank s which they use to collect ransom. And they even have active social media s to show of their criminal activities. Yet the government hasn't fozen any of their s.

Useless nepotistic government.

Yet Fulani herdsmen keep rampaging the entire country
