The property, located in Lagos, Rivers, Abuja, Anambra, Gombe, Ebonyi, Kaduna, Delta, Edo, Kwara, Cross River, Osun and Oyo states, were seized from politicians and businessmen.

It was gathered that 23 luxury properties in Banana Island Estate, Lagos, were confiscated from the former oil minister.
The anti-graft agency published a public notice on Saturday stating that individuals and corporate organisations interested in the said property must not have been prosecuted by the commission.
It added that bid forms should be downloaded from the EFCC website, noting that bidders were invited to inspect the property.
