Court orders seizure of assets belonging to Jonathan’s former campaign director

The federal high court in Abuja has ordered the interim forfeiture of assets belonging to Ngozi Olojeme, a former director of the campaign of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.

The assets comprises of residential buildings, a hotel building, a bank building and lands among others.

Olojeme, who also served as chairman of Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF), has been accused of abuse of office, diversion of public funds and money laundering.

The court ordered the forfeiture after the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) filed an ex parte motion on December 12 praying it to do so.
