The Lead Activists call on all Magistrate Court Judges in Delta State, to uphold the provisions of the Money Lenders Law and refuse to enforce claims brought by Lenders who failed to meet statutory compliance requirements.
He urged members of the public to contact them whenever they encounter cases where money lenders operate outside the law or where there is apparently Judicial bias aiding unlicensed lenders operate against borrowers
According to Comrade Ojei, any case based on unlicensed money lenders excesses interest, compound interest, or non compliance with statutory documents requirements should be dismissed outrightly, and any Judicial enforcement of such claims constitute a miscarriage of justice.
“The Young Nigeria Rights Organization, will continue to advocate for the protection of borrowers, petition oversight bodies where judicial conduct undermines the law, and challenge all forms of illegal and exploitative lenders in Delta State “, He added.
