$9.6bn Judgment: CSOs, NLC, Others To Picket British, Irish Embassies

No fewer than one thousand Civil Society Organisations (CSO) are set to picket the British and Irish Embassies next Monday over the United Kingdom court’s $9.6bn judgment against Nigeria.

The Secretary General of Coalition of Civil Society Groups, Mr Abubakar Ibrahim, gave the hint during a brief chat with AljazirahNigeria on Friday in Abuja.

Mr Ibrahim said that apart from the CSOs, the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), National Association of Nigerian Students(NANS), and other pro-democracy groups are all ready to join the protest next week.

“The protest is going to be massive because we are all displeased with such a fraudulent judgment. Those who are behind this huge corruption must be brought to book,” Ibrahim said.
