Rasheed Gbadamosi, Nigeria's former Minister for National Planning, owns two expensive and luxurious penthouses in Panama, a notorious tax haven, according to a report from Premium Times.
Mr. Gbadamosi, writer, businessman and bureaucrat, was recently appointed co-chairman of the Lagos at 50 planning committee. He bought the two properties in 2008, while serving as chairman of the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency (PPPRA).
The septuagenarian shelled out a staggering N836.8 million ($2.6 million) for the penthouses located in a swanky tower in Panama.
In order to process the purchase, Mr. Gbadamosi sent a scanned copy of his international passport at the time (with number A23418785) to Ramses Owens, a lawyer working for Mossack Fonseca, as part of the Know Your Customer (KYC) and compliance and identity verification process needed for drawing up the contract.
