The federal government are demanding to see a list of Binance Nigerian users since the exchange inception, a person familiar with the matter said.

Sorry this is coming late, I just saw it. I've responded to many similar stories and I must say with all emphasis that the Nigerian government are just unspeakable in reasoning and I wonder what they stood to gain eventually because the way I see things, Binance will not yield anymore. If they like, they should jail the Binance executives, nothing will happen, and in the end, Binance would compensate them as though they were still actively working and would treat it as though they are being vilified on the official ground. They came to Nigeria as the representative of Binance before the Nigerian government "kidnapped" them with their rascality that would amount to nothing.

As I've always said, Binance is not the only country dealing with Nigerians and many are not registered in Nigeria. I am also certain that many countries' citizens are dealing with Nigerian businesses without the Nigerian business having any presence in their country despite financial flows happening. So what? The Nigerian government should have used their senses in this case instead of playing towards the path that would make them lose totally. I wonder about their (government) gain when those guys served their jail terms and still earned nothing from Binance which has claimed many times that it does not have any presence in the country.

Besides, I feel for the absconded guy who has now been rearrested in Kenya, he should have run to a better country than Kenya, he should have learned from Nnamdi Kanu that such a country is shameless, nothing so different from Nigeria. I wonder on which ground the guy would be arrested if he is in Europe and other good countries. Nevertheless, I am disappointed about what Binance is doing through legal means to stop the extradition, even if they lose, they should have at least tried, and not let this political rascality continue unabated.

As for the Nigerian names requested, since they refused to work with Binance, now to what gain? The company they never allowed to cooperate with them? I think they will get that in their dreams. This is especially true as they have lost all jurisdiction rights since Binance has stopped all NGN transactions.
