Court reserves judgment on final forfeiture of Malami’s 57 properties

A Federal High Court in Abuja has reserved judgment on the final forfeiture of 57 properties allegedly linked to former Attorney General Abubakar Malami. Justice Joyce Abdulmalik set July 6, 2026, for judgment after hearing arguments from the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) counsel and the defense. The defense filed 16 motions seeking to set aside the interim forfeiture order granted earlier.
