The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has filed a lawsuit against the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) over its alleged failure to disclose details of direct payments made to Nigeria’s 774 Local Government Areas (LGAs), including Rivers State.
The case, numbered FHC/L/MSC/521/2025, was lodged on Friday at the Federal High Court in Lagos.
SERAP is seeking a court order compelling the CBN to provide full disclosure on allocations sent to each local government council following last year’s Supreme Court ruling.
