After freezing his account, the Central Bank of Nigeria was accused of victimizing a Nigerian youth.


Victor Israel called CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele on Twitter, asking him to unfreeze his account.


According to him, the only offense he committed during the # EndSARS protest was providing medical assistance to individuals.


Notice that last month, CBN secured a federal court order to freeze the bank accounts of 19 people and a public relations firm related to the # EndSARS protests.


According to records, on October 20, 2020, CBN Governor Godwin Emefiele filed an application for an ex-parte tribunal to freeze the accounts, which was granted by Justice Ahmed Mohammed of the Abuja Federal High Court.

 

Bolatito Rachael Oduala (Rinu), Pamilerin Adegoke, Victor Babatunde and Victor Israel, four of the affected young Nigerians have taken to their Twitter accounts to restate their commitment to the #EndSARS movement while revealing the effect of the account freeze.

 

Days after the information was made public, Israel who is based in Port Harcourt, Rivers state, took to Twitter to vindicate himself by revealing that he only offered medical assistance to people during the protest.

 

“I’m Pharmacist Bassey Victor Israel, the Head of the medical team #EndSars protest in PH & my offense was giving medical assistance to people during the protest.


“Godwin Emefiele how does this look like someone sponsoring terrorism?

I committed no crime, unfreeze my bank accounts,” he wrote.
