Ghanaian investors in River Park Estate, Abuja, have filed a N200 million lawsuit against the Nigeria Police Force and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over alleged harassment, unlawful arrests, and intimidation.

According to reports, Samuel Jonah, Kojo Mensah, Victor Quainoo, and their lawyer Abu Arome—directors of Jonah Capital Nigeria Ltd and Houses for Africa—filed suit FHC/ABJ/CS/1130/2025 before a Federal High Court in Abuja. They claim their rights were repeatedly violated despite the conclusion of prior investigations.
The investors allege that a Special Investigation Panel (SIP), constituted by the Inspector-General of Police, concluded its findings, but the report was withheld.
Instead, they say, a fresh probe was initiated by the IGP Monitoring Unit, which they argue is an attempt to manipulate or suppress the original findings.

Kojo Mensah, CEO of Jonah Capital, was reportedly detained and interrogated for several days by EFCC officials at the FCT Zonal Command.
The plaintiffs say these actions stem from a dispute over River Park Estate ownership, which was already covered under legal agreements dating back to 2012.
“The continued harassment, invitations, and arrests are unjustified and oppressive,” the plaintiffs stated, demanding a perpetual injunction to stop further interference and the release of the SIP report.
