Buildings sealed off by operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Tuesday in Kano have no relationship with the Director of Finance and Administration in the Office of the National Security Adviser, Jafaru Mohammed, a lawyer has said.
The lawyer, Sagir Gezawa, said his client, Tanimu Inusa, is the rightful owner of the property and there was no court order okaying the sealing off of the affected properties.
Operatives of the anti-graft agency had sealed off 21 properties in Kano on Tuesday as part of investigation into a corruption case involving Mr Mohammed, a brigadier-general.
The lawyer said Mr Inusa was interrogated by the EFCC as part of the investigation of the case due to business transactions traced to a company linked to Mr Mohammed, Atlasfield Ltd.
