On October 22nd the Supreme Court called for the hearing of the suit addressed by atleast 16 state governors challenging the constitutionality of the laws establishing the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and two others.
The states are arguing that the EFCC is a UN Convention that was now reduced to the EFCC Establishment Act and in doing so neglected the constitution of the Nation which is supreme to any other law.
Now according to the state governments, there’s a provision in the Constitution which requires atleast the majority of the states’ Houses of Assembly agreeing to bring the convention in before passing the EFCC Act and others, but allegedly this was never done.
So na Kurukele walker dem carry bring EFCC in!
Therefore they’re saying any institution formed through such process should be regarded as illegal. Na their case be that. And that the law (EFCC) should not be applied to any states that did not approve of it in accordance with the Nigerian Constitution.
My own na say EFCC has been there since 2004, why now dem wan scrab am out.
The EFCC representative even say na people wey their hand no clean na em Dey push for the scraping.
But how Una see this matter
