“It Is Not a Crime to Be a Debtor In Nigeria”. Being a debtor is not a Crime in Nigeria and Debt is not an offence in any part of Nigeria. Even failure to pay debt after such was demanded is also not an offence so far as there is no intention to defraud or commit an offence. No security agency including Nigeria Police, EFCC, State Security Services, Nigeria Army and vigilante groups has right to intervene, arrest, harass or detain a debtor or order repayment of debt. You recover debt by engaging a lawyer. My authority: Section 2 of Criminal Code Act and section 4 of Penal Code Act. #DailyLawTips #SabiLaw #LearnNigerianLaws To receive our Daily Law Tips for free follow our Facebook page, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube via “@LearnNigerianLaws”.
