19 Bidders Emerge In EFCC’s Auctions Of Forefited Properties 

The exercise was concluded on Monday, January 16 and information disclosed through a statement released on Tuesday morning via its Twitter handle.

The anti-graft agency stated that there were fresh bids for all the unsold properties in lots 4,5,6,7,8 and 9 where 19 successful bidders emerged.

The commission noted that the properties are proceeds of crime forfeited and processed by the EFCC for auction.

“The properties were forfeited to the government, being proceeds of crime established through judicial processes by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
“19 Bidders Emerge in Final Bids for Forfeited Properties As the curtain is drawn on the ongoing sales of forfeited properties, nineteen (19) successful fresh bids were recorded on Monday, January 16, 2023, being the final day of the sales.
“During Monday’s bidding exercise, there were fresh bids for all the unsold properties in Lot 4,5,6,7,8 and 9 where 19 successful bidders emerged.”

The Secretary to the Commission, George Ekpungu, has urged bidders to make their payments before 15 days.“I want to thank you for making this exercise a success, I congratulate the winners, and I want to also ask them to cooperate by making payments before 15 days, else we will give it to the next highest bidders.
“As for the ones we couldn’t conclude today, we will get back to the public on our decision on them, thank you,”  Ekpungu said.
