A Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, has ordered the final forfeiture to the federal government of N120 million traced to a primary school teacher, Roseline Egbuha, and her accomplices, by the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related offences Commission (ICPC).

ICPC spokesperson, Azuka Ogugua, said the forfeited money, as well as cars, were part of the N540 million proceeds of crime traced to Egbuha, a teacher with Ozala primary school, Abagana, Anambra State.

The teacher, who was on a monthly salary of N76,000 as at the time of her arrest in 2020 by ICPC, had N540 million stashed in her bank account with Guaranty Trust Bank.

Further investigations by ICPC revealed her alleged complicity in money laundering thereby prompting the Commission to place a Post-No-Debit (PND) on the account.

However, the PND was lifted by Egbuha and her accomplices with a court order purportedly from a Federal High Court, Abuja and the money promptly split and moved into multiple bank accounts owned by Bureau de Change operators and private individuals.

The accomplices – one James Erebouye, Emon Okune, Chisom Iwueke, Alonge Ojo, Maureen Chidimma, Owoyemi Mayowa and Ejeaka Ifeoma, including two private companies, were charged to court for involving in fraudulent activities and warehousing proceeds of crime by the ICPC.

Counsel to ICPC, Adesina Raheem, in a motion exparte filed in 2021, alleged that the funds were proceeds of unlawful activities stashed away in six new generation banks by Egbuha and her associates.

He prayed the court to order the final forfeiture of the money and cars to the federal government.

Justice Donatus Okorowo, after taking arguments from counsel to ICPC and the respondents, ruled that monies found in seven individual bank accounts and that of two private companies and the items should be forfeited to the federal government.
