Body Scanners Even Violate Nigerian Constitution

A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Mr. Tayo Oyetibo,
on Thursday faulted the Federal Government’s proposed
use of full-body scanners to screen international travellers
passing through the country’s airports.
He added that the development was unconstititutional, saying
that the proposed action would violate Nigerians’ rights
to human dignity and privacy as enshrined in sections 34 (1)
(a) and 37 of the 1999 Constitution
Oyetibo, who stated this in a statement made available to our
correspondent in Lagos, reminded the government that the proposed
action was illegal since the National Assembly was yet to make
any law to authorise the use of the equipment.
According to the senior advocate, it is wrong for the government
to take a precipitating action to justify the unwarranted decision
of the United States’ placing of the country on the so
called list of ‘security risk states.’
"When the people find they can vote themselves
money, that will herald the end of the republic."
