As part of the list of assets forfeited by Diezani Alison-Madueke, former petroleum minister, personal effects like bras and waist trainers are not left out.
Diezani had fled the county shortly before former President Goodluck Jonathan handed over to President Muhammadu Buhari in 2015.
She is alleged to have stolen $2.5 billion from the Nigerian government while she was minister — an allegation she has denied.
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has since commenced a process to extradite her.
The federal government has gained forfeiture of Diezani’s properties located in Banana Island Foreshore Estate, Ikoyi, Lagos, including 18 flats and six penthouses.
Other properties listed include 125 wedding gowns, 13 small gowns, 41 waist trainers, 73 hard flowers, 11 suits, 11 invisible bras, 73 veils, 30 braziers, two standing fans, 17 magic skirts, six blankets, one table blanket and 64 pairs of shoes.
The federal government has begun the process of screening 613 independent valuers expected to manage the sale of the assets permanently forfeited.
Though the Federal Government has not yet given the value of the 30 bras and other properties listed for sale, nor has any image of the said bra released officially but an investigation conducted by Starnews Nigeria revealed that the affected bras are among the world most expensive bras worth millions of dollars.
