The Federal High Court in Lagos on Wednesday ordered the
permanent forfeiture of 56 houses linked to a former Minister of Petroleum
Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke.
The houses, located
in Lagos and Port Harcourt, were said to have been acquired by the ex-minister
between 2011 and 2013 using front companies.
The Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission claimed that Diezani paid $21,982,224 for the
properties, adding that it believed that the funds were proceeds of crime.
