Recall that the anti-graft agency on Monday announced that Justice Jude Onwuegbuzie of the Federal Capital Territory High Court forfeited an Abuja estate.
Former presidential candidate of the African Action Congress, AAC, Omoyele Sowore has blasted the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Sowore slammed the EFCC for not disclosing the identity of an alleged former government official who owned the forfeited 753 units of duplexes in Abuja.
Recall that the anti-graft agency on Monday announced that Justice Jude Onwuegbuzie of the Federal Capital Territory High Court forfeited an Abuja estate measuring 150,500 square metres containing about 753 units of duplexes and other apartments to the government.
The commission said the forfeited property was the single largest asset recovery since its inception in 2003.
According to the EFCC, the estate, located on Plot 109 Cadastral Zone C09, Lokogoma District, Abuja, belonged to an undisclosed government official.
Reacting, Sowore, in a post on his official Facebook page, tackled the commission for withdrawing the identity of the property owner.
He wrote, “What is the name of the “former top brass” with 753 duplexes seized by the EFCC in Abuja?
“The @officialEFCC is now doing PR for thieves. They seized this large estate with 753 duplexes from a single individual in Abuja but can’t mention his or her name.
“If it is Yahoo boys, they will line laptops and Nokia phones in front of them and send their photos globally even before their trial is commenced. The same EFCC is now AFRAID of BIG Thieves!”
