The Federal Government has warned that unauthorized disclosure or leakage of official documents, capable of impacting the country negatively, is a punishable offence.

The Secretary to the Government of the Federation, GEORGE AKUME, gave the warning in Abuja, at a workshop organized by the Bureau for Public Service Reforms.

AKUME said unauthorized leakage of sensitive official documents constitutes a felony, and there is no defense for such, either in the Constitution or Freedom of Information Act.
