The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, has set up a panel to probe alleged fraudulent sale of recovered assets of the federal government.
Mr. Malami said the federal government was yet to commence sale of its recovered looted assets.
In a press statement, Mr. Malami’s spokesperson, Umar Gwandu, acknowledged a media report, claiming that a “syndicate allegedly from the ministry sells federal government’s recovered properties without the knowledge of the Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice.”
Gwandu also said the AGF neither approved nor ordered the sale of any property.
