A federal high court in Abuja has
ordered an interim forfeiture of two houses allegedly linked to Patience
Jonathan, former first lady.
Nnamdi Dimgba, a judge, gave the
order in a suit filed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
He dismissed Jonathan’s objection
to the application for lacking in merit.
Situated at Plot No. 1960,
Cadastral Zone A05, Maitama District, and Plot No. 1350, Cadastral Zone A00,
both in Abuja, the properties were said to be in the name of Ariwabai Aruera
Reachout Foundation, which Jonathan is one of its trustees.
Dimgba said the forfeiture must
last for only 45 days within which the anti-graft agency must conclude its
investigations.
