A Federal High Court in Lagos, on Wednesday, granted an order for the interim forfeiture of properties valued at N11.14 billion linked to a former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) governor, Godwin Emefiele.

POLITICS NIGERIA gathered that Justice Chukwujekwu Aneke issued the order following a motion ex parte filed and argued by a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and counsel to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Rotimi Oyedepo.


The court’s order mandates the interim forfeiture of these properties to the Federal Government.


Oyedepo informed the court that Emefiele is suspected of purchasing these high-value properties, primarily located in upscale areas of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, by proxy, using proceeds from fraud.

The EFCC also implicated three CBN staff members as Emefiele’s accomplices. Makinde Olubunmi, Obayemi Teben and Adebayo Akomolafe allegedly used their positions to secure retail and special allocations of foreign exchange for various companies in exchange for kickbacks.


Justice Aneke has ordered the EFCC to publish the forfeiture order in a newspaper to allow any interested parties to present reasons why a final forfeiture order should not be issued.

The case to June 21 for the hearing of the motion for final forfeiture.

The money will be re-looted.

Witch-hunt @ best!

Abacha seems to be hes godfather

Something they'll embezzle, thief steal it, thief recover it

So much money to be stolen yet...

This is what is needed to recover proceeds of crime from Nigerian politicians

Though i am against witch hunts, the law should be the same for everyone

Look at crook like Akpabio, senate president, criminal like kalu, senator, even gbaja that have been caught several times with hand inside the cookie jar appointing minister, not forgetting Tunde Sabiu and Buhari Cabal

Not even talking about thiefnibiu himself the chief ekperima

People should remember that power is transient, all these noise some people are making answering jagaba

what you steal today shall be forefeited to the state tommorow or wasted by your children ontop olosho

Theives every were

That man must be a born thief.

You dey go fight jagaban when you're not a drug dealer..

You for just retire as a BANK CEO

Ole Godwin emefiele , most useless CBN governor ever

Olóun!

Other looters waiting patiently for the loot

He was successful and Zenith Bank MD before he became CBN Governor.

You can’t just assume all his properties are proceeds of corruption

All these properties belong to his master buhari I think. So tinubu is fighting buhari, sooner or later arewa will surely respond

They should free him, he's not the only criminal we have

These people are part of those who ruined Nigeria to it's present condition.

This man cannot die well. He was just looting when country was bleeding. How he singlehadedly pulled this grand thievery is just a mirage. No wonder, almost all the directors were sent packing. For this country to get better, anyone that has tasted power before should be sent to jail and their properties confiscated.

Oh pls collec everything and jail him biko.

Are you sure Emefiele is not the richest man in the world?
