Bala Mohammed, former Minister of FCT has filled a motion before a High Court of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Gudu District, seeking the retrieval of his personal effects from his house located at No. 1, Mukhtar Street, Asokoro, Abuja, which had been sealed off by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) since May 2016.
DAILY POST reports that Mohammed is seeking to retrieve from the house 35 sets of ‘babaringa’, 15 pieces of perfumes, 50 sets of leather handbags, 65 pairs of shoes, over 35 boxes of clothes, bed sheets, kitchen utensils and a BMW car.
A supporting affidavit deposed to by a domestic aide to the former minister, Mr. Umar Usman, stated that the sealing off of the property was impromptu, and as a result, the family members moved to a guest house and have been surviving on few personal effects they had to purchase out of desperation.
Mohammed therefore prayed for, “an order granting the defendant/applicant and his family members entry to his premises currently sealed off by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, in order to retrieve his personal effects and those of other members of his family.”
Justice Abubakar Talba said he would pass his verdict on the motion in the next hearing.
