Seized 86 cars, houses: FG charges civil servant, North-East presidential committee chief

Ade Adesomoju,, Abuja

The Federal Government on Thursday arraigned a federal civil servant, Mr. Ibrahim Tumsah and his brother, Mr. Tijani Tumsah, before the Federal High Court in Abuja with failure to declare their assets to the Chief Okoi Obono-Obla-led Special Presidential Investigation Panel on the Recovery of Public Property.

Ibrahim is the Director of Finance and Account in the Federal Ministry of Power, Works, and Housing, while his brother, Tijani, is a member of the Presidential Committee on North East Initiative and a former Interim National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress.



The Federal Government had on January 18, 2018 filed a suit marked FHC/ABJ/CR/4/2018 containing two counts of failure of the defendants to declare their assets “without reasonable excuse and upon the notice to declare” them before the panel.

Earlier on December 6, 2017, Justice Muawiyah Idris of the High Court of the Federal Capital Territory in Apo, Abuja, had ordered hat 86 luxury vehicles together with four houses and a quarry plant in Abuja, all of which the panel allegedly seized from the two defendants.

The PUNCH had exclusively reported that the seized 86 vehicles, 23 of which were said to be armoured, were brand new.

The court’s forfeiture orders also affected four houses, two of which were located in Wuse II, one in Wuse Zone 7, and the other in Jabi, all in Abuja.

The two brothers pleaded not guilty to the two counts when read to them before Justice Nnamdi Dimgba of the Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday.

The offences were said to be contrary to and punishable under section 3(3)(1)(a) of the Recovery of Public Property (Special Provision) Act 2004.

Their lawyers, Abdul Mohammed (for Ibrahim) and Kehinde Ogunwumiju (SAN) (for Tijani), applied for their clients’ bail.

The prosecuting counsel, Mr. Festus Keyamo (SAN), did not oppose the bail application.



The judge subsequently granted bail to the two defendants by adopting the bail conditions agreed upon by the prosecution and the defence.

Part of the conditions was a bail sum of N20m.

Under Fashola? No. Under Jonathan but he was caught under Buhari. You actually think anyone could acquire all those cars, houses and investments under two years? Politics of bitterness has messed you up.

This one prolly has no political weight or notable godfather, that's why he can be used as a scapegoat to smokescreen the anti corruption fight.
Or if you look deep, he may be one of Atiku's boys.

Old news... Mtchew....

chisos! this shithole is overdue for a revolution!

See defence
Buratai who bought multi million dollar mansions in Dubai, did anyone touch him?
No.
Maina who was sacked and declared wanted by Jonathan, where is he?
Reinstated and promoted by Buhari, the grand master of corruption.

Seenyo:
chisos! this shithole is overdue for a revolution!

Is anyone stopping you from starting it

Kalu’s case was not before a judge?
Sylva’s case was not before a judge?
Has Buhari not returned Sylva’s 48 mansions seized by EFCC
You can only deceive yourself that Buhari is fighting corruption. You can’t deceive all of us.

Damn! These are the type of people to be lynched once the judge pronounce him guilty with glaring evidences.
