The Federal High Court in Lagos has issued an interim forfeiture order for digital assets valued at $222,729.86, which are allegedly linked to fraudulent activities involving Chinese and Filipino nationals. This comes as the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) arraigned 11 Chinese nationals on charges of cyber fraud, identity theft, and attempts to destabilize Nigeria’s constitutional structure. Additionally, a Nigerian woman has been sentenced to five years in prison for trafficking a victim to Italy for prostitution. Other recent court actions include a five-year jail sentence for a former staff member of the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB) and a three-year sentence for a Nigerian professor convicted of falsifying election results in the 2019 polls.
