President Muhammadu Buhari
says officials of past administrations including ministers are entitled to
their full rights and privileges under the constitution and must not be
subjected to any undue harassment and intimidation at the airports or at other
points of entry and exit and directed all agencies under the government to run
their affairs in full compliance with extant rules, regulations and the
constitution of the country. "We have not banned anyone from
travelling," said the President.
"Unless otherwise
directed by the courts, no law-abiding citizens should be barred from
travelling abroad. We must treat fellow citizens with courtesy and respect.
Officials at the borders and other points of entry and exit should conduct
their affairs in strict compliance with due process. No one has my permission
to bar anyone from travelling abroad," the president said.
