"This shows President Tinubu's anti-corruption seriousness," Dangiwa stated, noting the properties will be sold via the Renewed Hope Portal after assessments. Covering 150,500 sqm, it's one of Nigeria's largest asset seizures.
Lawyer Pelumi Olajengbesi urged an independent committee (including CSOs, valuers, and clergy) to oversee allocation, warning: "Without transparency, cronies may hijack these homes." The EFCC pledged continued monitoring.
