The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has returned eleven houses recovered in different parts of Enugu to billionaire businessman, Arthur Eze.
EFCC spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, disclosed this in a statement on Monday in Abuja. According to the commission, the investigation established that the duo who is also the nephew of the business mogul used proceeds of their alleged criminal activities to acquire choice properties in Enugu and other parts of South Eastern Nigeria. Uwujaren said the anti-graft agency in the course of the investigation initiated forfeiture proceedings against the two company officials before Justice I.M Buba of the Federal High Court, Enugu, which granted an interim order of forfeiture of the said properties, directing the defendants to show cause why the properties should not be finally forfeited. “In the absence of any contrary information, the Court on October 18, 2021, ordered that the properties be finally forfeited and returned to the nominal complainant, Chief Arthur Eze,” Uwujaren said. Receiving the properties in Enugu, Eze expressed gratitude to the EFCC for ensuring that justice is served. “I am grateful to the Executive Chairman of the EFCC, Mr. Abdulrasheed Bawa, the Zonal Commander and all your men who fought for justice to be served,” Eze said. “I am aware that, at some point, your men risked their lives for this cause. I pray that God who has been keeping you will always protect you. I am here in person to thank you for all that you did for me when those whom I call my own, stole from me”. The Enugu Zonal Commander of the EFCC, Oshodi Johnson, who handed the properties to the businessman, commended the investigative and prosecution teams as well as the judiciary for ensuring that justice is served in the case.       [GuardianNG]
