Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has urged a Federal High Court in Lagos to restrain security agencies from accessing people’s personal details via NIN-SIM linkage without due process of law.
The civic society organization, in the suit which is yet to be assigned to a judge, is asking the court to determine “whether the approval for security agencies to access people’s personal details via the National Identification Number [NIN] without due process is consistent with the principles of legality, necessity, and proportionality.
The organization is also praying the court for an order setting aside President Buhari’s approval for security agencies to access people’s details via NIN-SIM linkage without due process of law, as this amounts to violations of private and digital communication rights, right to family life, human dignity and personal liberty.”
It is further urging the court for an order of perpetual injunction restraining the Federal Government or any other authority, persons or group of persons from unlawfully accessing people’s personal details via NIN-SIM linkage without due process of the law.
