Harboursandport.com: Lagos - As the crisis rocking the Association of Nigeria Licensed Customs Agents (ANLCA) deepens, a faction of association has revealed that a plan to unlawfully incarcerate all leaders of the Western zone, including the Board of Trustee (BOT) members over thrum-up charges have been foiled.

The plan according to the faction follows a petition to the Force Criminal Investigation
Department (FCID), signed by Mukaila Babatunde Abdulazeez, was aimed to destroy
their families and businesses in the long run.
A statement
signed by the Media Adviser to ANLCA and former
Senior Special Adviser (SSA) media to the Immediate Past National President (IPNP)
of ANLCA, Adumaza Joe Sanni, “All those
arrested (in all, 47 persons were listed for arrests and prolonged, illegal
detention in the petition) were detained without questioning or even confronted
with established facts of any connection to the alleged terrorist acts,
banditry, kidnapping, attempted murder, and the likes, without any preliminary
investigations or a primia facie case established by the engaged, apparently
compromised enforcers of their dubious plans, who went about fiercely, in
violation of their human and constitutional rights, arresting anybody whose
name was on their generated list, with reckless abandon as if tomorrow shall
never come or, as if God isn't alive anymore.
“Within hours of the mindless arrests, unexpected
pressure came from "above" to release unconditionally all those
arrested, irrespective of the stage of the investigations.”
Sanni
further noted that some of the elected officers in the 2018 election into the national office of ANLCA like himself are
“up till date continue to parade themselves as a national officer of ANLCA, in flagrant disobedience of the order of Justice Aikawa in Suit #
FHC/L/CS/921/2020 restraining all NECOM members of ANLCA from parading
themselves as national officers since August 26, 2020.”
Efforts
to speak with the other faction of ANLCA led the National President, Tony
Nwabunike, proved abortive as he did not pick up his call.
