The court order, addressed to the head offices of Access Bank; Fidelity Bank; First Bank Nigeria; Guaranty Trust Bank; United Bank of Africa and Zenith Bank on Friday, directed the banks to freeze forthwith all transactions on the 20 accounts on the list annexed to the CBN’s application as Exhibit A and all other bank accounts of the defendants/respondents for a period of 180 days pending the outcome of investigation and inquiry currently being conducted by the Central Bank of Nigeria.
