Court Declines EFCC’s Bid for Final Forfeiture of Saraki’s Assets
The Federal High Court, sitting in Lagos, yesterday declined the request by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission to seek the final forfeiture of two properties belonging to a former Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki.
The judge also held that EFCC’s documents did not establish any link showing that Kwara State Government funds were used to repay Saraki’s loan. The counsel said: “There are written statements from some officials of Kwara State Government on how the money was taken from the coffers of the state government and used to pay back the loan.”
