The Federal High Court in Lagos has ordered the final forfeiture of $1.4 million traced to former Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Godwin Emefiele.
Justice Ayokunle Faji granted the order following an EFCC investigation, which revealed that the funds—linked to Donatone Limited at Titan Trust Bank—were proceeds of alleged fraudulent activities. The EFCC claimed the money was laundered through Mauritius before being repatriated under false pretenses.
This adds to previous forfeitures of ₦830 million, $4.7 million, and multiple properties, including a luxury estate in Texas. The EFCC has vowed to continue its probe into Emefiele’s financial dealings.
