Justice Chukujekwu Aneke of the Federal High Court, Lagos, on Wednesday, ordered the final forfeiture of five properties linked to a former Managing Director of Nigerian Army Properties Limited (NAPL), Major-Gen. Umaru Mohammed to the Federal Government.
The judge gave the order following a motion by the lawyer to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), A.O. Mohammed.
Justice Aneke on March 4 ordered the interim forfeiture of the properties and directed the commission to publish an order in a national newspaper for any interested person to show cause why they should not be permanently forfeited to the Federal Government.
