Court orders final forfeiture of Diezani’s Lekki property

Justice Akintayo Aluko of a Lagos Federal High Court Friday ordered final forfeiture to the federal government, a vacant plot of land situated at Plot 13, Block I, Oniru Chieftaincy Family Private Estate, Lekki, Lagos, linked to Mrs Diezani Alison-Madueke, a former Nigeria’s petroleum Minister.

The forfeiture order was sequel to the application filed by Mr Ansalem B. Ozioko, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) head of legal section, but moved and argued by Mr Abbas Mohammed, a legal officer in the commission.

Justice Babs Kuewuni had on May 15, 2018, granted interim forfeiture of the said land.

In making a final forfeiture of the said land yesterday, Justice Aluko held that: “This is an enrollment of order.  It is hereby ordered as follow: that a final order is granted forfeiting the property/asset listed and described in the schedule herein to the Federal Government of Nigeria.”

The EFCC had listed the former petroleum Minister, Mrs Diezani Alison Madueke, a Nigeria lawyer, Donald Chidi Amamgbo and MEZ Group LLC, as respondents in the suit, numbered FHC/L/CS/811/2018.
