Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has concluded plans to conduct sale of properties, which are subject of Final Forfeiture Orders.
The Commission had, on Saturday, December 24, 2022, publicly announced commencement of the auction exercise with advertorial in major newspapers, inviting bids for the properties.
According to the Commission, interested persons or organisations have until 12:00 p.m. Monday, January 9, 2023, to submit their bids.
EFCC spokesperson, Wilson Uwujaren, disclosed this in a statement, yesterday.
According to him, the properties consisting of 61 units of luxury apartments, plots of lands and apartments across the country are being offered for sale, in accordance with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (Establishment) Act, 2004, Public Procurement Act, 2007 and the Proceeds of Crime (Recovery and Management) Act, 2022.
The distribution of the properties are: 24 units of luxurious block of flats at Banana Island, Lagos; 21 units of luxury terrace and block of flats at Thornburn, Yaba, Lagos and 16 units of 4 bedrooms terrace duplex at Heritage Court Estate, Port Harcourt.
Others are apartments and plots of land in Lagos State; apartments and plots of land within Abuja metropolis; plots of land and apartment in Anambra, Ebonyi and Gombe States; apartments and plot of land in Kaduna, Delta and Edo States; hotel, plaza and apartments in Kwara State and apartments and plots of land in Cross River, Osun and Oyo States.
Uwujaren said the auction is open to members of the public, with the exception of individuals and corporate entities who have been and or are being prosecuted by the EFCC; directors of such companies and employees of the EFCC.
A competitive bidding process is being adopted for disposal of the properties.
He said: “The bid forms which can be downloaded from the EFCC website must be submitted alongside 10 per cent of the bid amount in certified bank drafts payable to EFCC. If the sum exceeds N10 million, multiple certified bank drafts must be provided; drafts of unsuccessful bidders will be returned once the bidding process is concluded.
“A successful bidder will be required to pay 90 per cent outstanding balance of the bid price within 15 working days of the bid submission deadline, failing which the 10 per cent deposit becomes non-refundable and the properties can be offered to other buyers. Payments shall be made to EFCC through the Remita platform.
“Individuals occupying any of the properties listed may be given the Right of First Refusal, provided they have a valid tenancy agreement; have paid rent up to date and must complete an Expression of Interest (EOI) Form, which can be downloaded from the EFCC website.”
Uwujaren added: “All bidders and/or their representatives are welcome to be present at the bid opening, which will take place at the Convocation Ground, National Open University of Nigeria, opposite Economic and Financial Crimes Headquarters, Jabi, Abuja from Monday, January 9, 2023 to Friday, January 13, 2023.
“The highest bid for each property will emerge the winner, subject to the highest bid being equal to or above the reserve price.
“In the event of a tied bid at the bid opening or where none of the bids match or exceed the reserve price, bidders will be required to submit fresh bids at the opening. The outcome of the fresh bid submissions will be announced at the bid opening.”
