High Court Orders Primary School Teacher, Others To Forfeit N110.4m To FG

A Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered one James Erebuoye and seven other suspects to forfeit a total of N110.4 million that the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other related offenses Commission linked to their accounts (ICPC).

The ICPC’s spokesperson, Azuka Ogugua, released a statement revealing that a motion had been filed for the interim forfeiture of a Toyota Lexus Jeep, a Toyota Venza car, and an iPad device, all of which were said to be proceeds from a N500 million illicit fund discovered in the account of one primary school teacher, Mrs. Roseline Uche Egbuha.

The commission said that N110,364,592.4 was transferred from the primary school teacher’s account to Erebuoye and others’ accounts.

The statement read in part: “The money to be forfeited includes N17.4 million that was transferred to the bank account of Erebuoye, N14.2 million to an account owned by one Ojo Alonge, N16.4 million to a company called DY Bako and Sons Ltd and N30.8 million to another company known as Dorason Construction ltd.

“The order for interim forfeiture also covers the sums of N7.1 million traced to an account owned by Owoyemi Mayowa, N8.2 million, and N6.5 million traced to the bank accounts of Emon Aje Okune and Maureen Chidinma, respectively.”
