Everything new is well-forgotten old. The more things change, the more they remain the same.
Malami is the ADC candidate for Kebbi state. He is not done. It's really unfair.
A new government comes in to prosecute the previous government for stealing while stealing themselves. It's really unfair.
EFCC Secures Final Forfeiture of University, Radio Station, 46 Other Properties Linked to Malami
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, on Wednesday, July 15, 2026, secured the final forfeiture of 48 properties linked to a former Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, SAN, to the Federal Government of Nigeria.
Among the forfeited properties are Rayhaan University, Kebbi State, including the Rayhaan University Permanent Site, Rayhaan University Temporary Site, Rayhaan University Third Site, the Rayhaan University Vice Chancellor's House and Rayhaan Radio along Sani Abacha Bypass Road, Birnin Kebbi.
Delivering judgment, Justice Joyce Abdulmalik of the Federal High Court, Abuja, held that the Commission had successfully established that the properties were reasonably suspected to be proceeds of unlawful activities and were not acquired from lawful sources of income.
The properties finally forfeited to the Federal Government are: a luxury duplex at Amazon Street, Plot No. 3011 within Cadastral Zone A06, Maitama District, Abuja (File No. AN 11352); a two-winged large three-storey building situated at No. 3 Onitsha Crescent, Area 11, Garki, Cadastral Zone A03, Abuja (formerly Harmonia Hotels Limited); Plot 683, Jabi District, Cadastral Zone B04, comprising a five-storey building (now luxurious Meethaq Hotels Ltd., Jabi, with 53 rooms/suites); Property No. 3130 within Cadastral Zone A04, Asokoro District, FCT, Abuja, comprising terraces; Property No. 3 Rhine Street, Maitama, Abuja (Meethaq Hotels Ltd., Maitama, with 15 rooms); and Plot No. 1241B, Asokoro District (No. 11A Yakubu Gowon Crescent), Asokoro District.
Others are: Shop No. C52, Citiscape – Shariff Plaza, Plot 739, Cadastral Zone A07, Aminu Kano Crescent, Wuse II, FCT, Abuja; No. 4 Ahmadu Bello Way, Nasarawa GRA, Kano; Plot 157, Lamido Nasarawa GRA, Kano; a commercial plaza comprising commercial toilets, laundering facilities, warehouse tanks adjacent to Birnin Kebbi Market; 100 hectares of land along Birnin Kebbi–Jega Road; and another 100 hectares of land along Birnin Kebbi–Jega Road.
Others are: a four-bedroom bungalow at Gesse Phase II, Birnin Kebbi; Shops Nos. A36 and B3, Vegas Mall, Wuse II, Abuja; No. 26 Babbi Drive, BUA Estate, Abuja; No. 27 EFAB Estate, 5th Avenue, 59th Crescent, Gwarimpa, Abuja; a four-bedroom house with two-room boys' quarters at No. 10B Doka Crescent, Abakpa GRA, Kaduna; Plot No. 13, IPENT 7 Estate, Karsana District, Abuja; a bedroom duplex with boys' quarters at No. 12 Yalinga Street, off Adetokunbo Ademola Crescent, Wuse II, Abuja; two warehouse shops B40 and B46, Wuse Market, Abuja; acquisition of twin houses at Zone E, Apo Legislative Quarters, Cadastral Zone B01, Plot 1401, Gudu District, Abuja; and properties acquired by Khadimiyya for Justice & Development Initiative at the Academic Garden City, Birnin Kebbi, sold by the Federal Housing Authority Mortgage, namely: nine units of three-bedroom bungalows, three units of two-bedroom bungalows, and 5.4 hectares of land.
Also forfeited are the Rayhaan Agro Allied Factory in Kebbi State, including the factory buildings, factory machines and plant units, factory mosque, Rayhaan Mill staff quarters, and the Rayhaan Bustan Building.
Others are assets at Azbir Arena, Kebbi State, including Azbir Hotel, Printing Press, Gallery, Gardens, Mosque, Azbir Clothing, and Azbir Pharmacy and Supermarket.
Other forfeited properties include the Al-Afiya Energy tanker garage opposite Rayhaan University Health Centre along Sani Abacha Bypass Road, Birnin Kebbi; Rayhaan Security House off Sani Abacha Bypass, Birnin Kebbi; an uncompleted two-storey plaza located opposite Central Motor Park (Eastern Park), Birnin Kebbi; Amasdul Oil and Gas Ltd. filling station structure along Sani Abacha Bypass Road, Birnin Kebbi, near Jambali Automobile Workshop; the assets of Zeennoor Hotel at Kabuga Satellite Town, off Gwarzo Road, Kano, with 131 rooms; Zeennoor Mosque at Kabuga Satellite Town, off Gwarzo Road, Kano; and the old Zeennoor Hotel building.
It would be recalled that on January 6, 2026, Justice Emeka Nwite granted the interim forfeiture order following an ex parte motion moved by counsel to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ekele Iheanacho, SAN.
Sequel to the granting of the interim forfeiture order, and in compliance with the order of the court, the EFCC published the interim order in national dailies, inviting interested persons to come forward and show cause why the final forfeiture order should not be granted in favour of the Federal Government of Nigeria.
The EFCC subsequently filed a motion for the final forfeiture of all the properties.
Meanwhile, following the publication of the interim order, Mr. Malami, SAN, and 14 other persons, mainly his family members and associates, filed applications to show cause and also urged the court to set aside the interim forfeiture order on the properties. They further challenged the jurisdiction of the court to grant the order and urged it not to grant the final forfeiture order.
The case was heard before Justice Joyce Abdulmalik on May 27, 2026, and the matter was thereafter adjourned for judgment.
Delivering judgment on Wednesday, the court held that the EFCC had sufficiently established that the 48 properties were reasonably suspected to have been acquired with proceeds of unlawful activities, and that the respondents failed to discharge the evidential burden placed on them, as they could not show the legitimate sources of the funds used in acquiring the properties.
The court further held that the respondents merely claimed ownership of the properties without providing proof of how they acquired them with funds from lawful sources.
According to the court, non conviction-based forfeiture proceedings require respondents to adduce evidence showing the lawful sources of the funds used in acquiring the properties, and not merely make bare assertions of ownership.

@momurewa why Norway dey celebrate without trophy if that's all that matters?
The national team is parading through Oslo in an open-top bus from the Royal Palace to City Hall, as people line the streets to celebrate Norway’s historic World Cup achievement.
Tinubu obstructed good governance so he can be the one to implement good governance in the future. I see.
Are you dumb? Aren't people against Tinubu now? Didn't he remove the fuel subsidy?
When you're a leader, you do what's best for your country, even if it hurts your political career. Past presidents were afraid of taking that risk because they feared losing support. Tinubu took that risk.
If you can't even acknowledge him for that, then honestly, I watched one of your skits once and realized you don't think things through. Sit down, watch your own skits again, and you'll see how daft you sound.
APC and their hypocrisy. Seyi Makinde has not done 1 percent of what was done during BBOG saga.
Shettima did worse to Jonathan during Chibok Girls daga. Your people here asked for state of emergency in Oyo state and suspension of the Governor. The security of lives and property is the work of the President even the security of the Governor is the work of the President.
According to you, no matter how much we hate who the President is, let us not lose our common sense or brain.
1. People were kidnapped, we blamed the government.
2. Governor run political agenda with it claiming it was because of his presidential ambition. Forgetting that it’s the joint primary responsibility of the SG and FG to secure the people.
3. While your favourite Governor was busy politicking, FG mobilized security forces, people were rescued, some kidnappers were neutralised, arrested and currently under investigation.
4. Same Governor is now calling international agencies to investigate a matter that is currently under investigation of a sovereign authority. Why did he not call on the same international agency to rescue the people when they were kidnapped. I mean if you suspected the FG was responsible for kidnapping your people, why did it take you so long to call on international bodies to investigate it.
5. I understand why it does make sense to you and why it is not funny, because your bias against the FG and dislike for a government you don’t like is now dead.
6. Yourself and other content makers like you can no longer make contents to politicize the kidnapping of the innocent people. Because their rescue sadden you more than their kidnapping excite you. Because none of you who made contents about the kidnapping has found it honourable to commend the rescue, even if it’s to commend our gallant men.
7. Your pattern is very clear and like I said, as you people continue to journey through this path, which emboldens the enemies and criminals terrorising this country, God will continue to put you all to shame as we continue to fight the enemies and criminals in this country.
8. You can criticise and hate your leaders, but don’t mix it up with hating your country, if not for anything but for the prosperity that awaits you in the future.
I won’t be suprised if your next response to this is insult.

Sepp Blatter had a finesse with his own corruption. It never impeded with the love of the game. Infantino on the other hand is just a straight up jaguda.
All I’ll say is if this was AFCON and they let a man play after he got a red card, the nonsense being said would be crazy
