LAGOS, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – Nigerians can now bid for some of the properties forfeited by Diezani Allison-Madueke, Nigeria’s former Petroleum Minister.
This revelation was made by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) about some properties forfeited to the federal government.
Daily Trust reports that the properties, located in Lagos, Rivers, Abuja, Anambra, Gombe, Ebonyi, Kaduna, Delta, Edo, Kwara, Cross River, Osun and Oyo states, were seized from politicians and businessmen.
It was gathered that some of the properties in Abuja, Lagos and Port Harcourt belonged to Diezani and were said to have been acquired by the proceeds of financial crimes.
23 luxury properties in Banana Island Estate, Lagos, were also reportedly confiscated from the former Minister.
EFCC in a public notice released on Saturday, informed that individuals and corporate organizations who are interested in the said properties must not have been prosecuted by the Commission.
Bid forms should be downloaded from the EFCC website: www.efcc.gov.ng, noting that bidders were invited to inspect the property.
