The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Thursday, gave the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, the nod to seize a property in Abuja that belongs to a former Governor of Imo state, Rochas Okorocha.
Justice Emeka Nwite ordered the interim forfeiture of the property situated at Plot 1032 & 1033 Cadastral Zone AO3, Takum Close, Off Michika Street, Ahmadu Bello Way, Garki Abuja, after he heard an ex-parte application the anti-graft agency brought before the court.
EFCC told the court that it reasonably suspected that the property was part of proceeds of unlawful activities of the erstwhile governor who is currently representing Imo West in the Senate.
