I was part of that investigation, and we have done quite a lot. In one of the cases, we recovered $153 million; we have secured the final forfeiture of over 80 properties in Nigeria valued at about $80 million. We have done quite a bit on that.“The other cases as it relates to the $115 million INEC bribery is also ongoing across the federation. We are looking forward to the time we will, maybe, have her in the country and, of course, review things and see what will happen going forward. The case has certainly not been abandoned,’’ Bawa said.Recall that the Federal High Court in Abuja <a href="https://dailypost.ng/2021/03/03/diezani-alison-madueke-court-fixes-date-for-efccs-report-in-ex-petroleum-ministers-trial/" target="_blank">had fixed May 17 for the EFCC to report</a> on how it complied with the court order in the trial of Alison-Madueke.The EFCC had accused Alison-Madueke of fleeing the country to the UK, to escape justice, among others.</blockquote>
