The Nigeria Customs Service (NCS) has released previously seize copies of former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s autobiography, “My Watch.”
This was disclosed on Thursday, April 16, 2015, by NCS Comptroller-General, Dikko Abdullahi.
Abdullahi
explained that the container carrying the books was released pursuant
to a recent court order lifting the ban against its distribution.
“Customs
got the initial order of the court to stop the container and now that
the court asks us to release the container, so be it,” he said while speaking to journalists at the commissioning of two new patrol boats in Lagos.
Justice Valentine Ashi of an Abuja High Court had, on Tuesday, April 14, ordered the release of the books.
The
former president was stopped from printing, publishing or distributing
the books in December 2014 due to a libel suit brought against him by Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, Buruji Kashamu.
