Justice Oweibo also ordered that a building, Real Tower Centre Shopping Complex at Plot 1121, Ekukinam Street, Utako District, Cadastral Zone, Abuja be taken over by the federal government.
The judge gave the directives after entertaining an ex parte application filed by the counsel to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , Rotimi Oyedepo.While moving the application, Oyedepo had informed the judge that the N241m was warehoused in two banks in the sums of N65 million, N61 million, N50million and N65million.
He claimed that an intelligence report received by the anti-graft agency revealed that the Abuja property was purchased with funds furtively diverted from SDG, office of the SSA to the President, where one Abdulsalam Bawa is a Principal Accountant. The lawyer alleged that Bawa is the key suspect in the crime and that the diversion was perpetrated in a grand conspiracy with some SDG staff.
