Former Oil Resources Minister Diezani Alison-Madueke is seeking a court order to prevent the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) from selling all property seized from her.
In a legal document filed by lawyers led by Chief Mike Ozekhome, the former minister asked the Federal High Court in Abuja to submit an order directing the anti-grafting agency from the person (natural or company) who sold any of her property.
According to her, the EFCC, under notices issued in 2023 and violated her fundamental rights to a fair hearing, began the auction of public sales of assets related to her.
Diezani added that the EFCC’s decision was based on a decision to sell her property in the eventual confiscation order obtained from various courts in the country.
“In many cases, based on the property that affects the applicant’s interest, the final confiscation order is mistaken for the applicant’s final confiscation order, based on the suppression of material facts or non-disclosure.
The court’s order to the applicant’s final confiscation order is obtained under serious misrepresentation, misrepresentation, non-disclosure, concealment and suppression of material facts, so the court has the right to abandon the same facts because it has never been done as it has never been,”
