The Economic and Financial Crimes Commissions (EFCC) has seized
properties belonging to former Minister of Petroleum, Mrs. Diezani
Alison-Madueke.
The Nation
reports that EFCC confiscated houses and a very expensive wrist watch
worth £600, 000 as well as other gold and diamond jewelry from the
former minister who is being prosecuted at the Westminster Magistrate’s
Court
in London for money laundering and bribery allegations, along with her
accomplice Jide Omokore
According to the source:
"We
have seized many houses belonging to Diezani and Omokore on Banana
Island and other places. Also, a wristwatch of about £1.4million was
seized from Omokore’s wife. From the former minister, we have
retrieved a choice wrist watch worth £600,000 and jewelry in gold and
diamond. We will soon show Nigerians all these items for them to
appreciate what we have done and to learn some lessons."
