The four companies charged alongside a former Special Adviser on
Domestic Affairs to ex-President Jonathan, Waripamo Dudafa, and two
others with money laundering have pleaded guilty to the offence, The Punch is reporting.
The four companies pleaded guilty to conspiring with Dudafa and the two
others to launder a sum of $15, 591,700 before a Federal High Court in
Lagos today.
The companies are Pluto Property and Investment Company Limited; Seagate
Property Development & Investment Co. Limited; Trans Ocean Property
and Investment Company Limited and Development Company Limited and
Avalon Global Property Development Company Limited.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission had since frozen the $15.6m
found in the four companies’ accounts in Skye Bank. But wife of
ex-President Jonathan, Patience, has sued the EFCC and Skye Bank, laying
claims to the money.
