Kashamu Seeks Order Restraining NDLEA From Seizing His Property, As NDLEA Rejects Judge
The National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, has asked the
judge in a fresh suit filed by Senator Buruji Kashamu to withdrawal himself
from the suit.
Kashamu had gone back to the courts to seek an order
restraining the NDLEA and the Attorney General of the Federation from seizing
his property.
In the new suit, Kashamu said he had got winds of the moves
by the NDLEA and the AGF to seize or take over his properties, including a
24-flat housing estate at Egbe and several hectares of land on Lekki
Peninsular, Lagos, worth over N20bn. He claimed he acquired the properties
through hard work and legitimate businesses and not from the proceedings of
drugs as the NDLEA claims. He now wants the court to stop them from seizing
them.
