The presiding judge, Justice Ibrahim Buba gave this order after Tompolo again failed to appear in court to honour a summon on an alleged fraudulent land contract for the construction of the Nigerian Maritime University.
On Friday, counsel to the EFCC, Mr. Festus Keyamo told the court that the efforts by all security agencies to arrest Tompolo had yielded no result, as they were yet to get hold of the first accused person.
His words, “The accused person Tompolo failed to appear again and we brought and application for the seizure of all his properties as provided for by law.
“If an accused person continues to abscond from court and conceals himself from court after a warrant of arrest has been issued, should be auctioned by the federal government. That’s what we have done and the court granted our prayers to seize his properties.
