The suspected security
operatives are seen in a video footage, driving away in two white Hilux vans
and a white bus after the raid at the Abuja house.
A source, who
confirmed the development, said the house is located at Igbeti Rock Street,
Maitama, Abuja, and that the police officers did not have a search warrant,
adding that the house was unoccupied at the time of the raid.
It was gathered that
the first lady does not stay in the building, but her younger brother lives
there.
Speaking exclusively
to TheCable News, Wilson
Uwujaren, spokesman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC),
said the anti-graft agency did not carry out the operation, and denied the
agency's involvement in the raid.
The Nigerian Police
spokesman, Don Awunah, also said he was not aware of the operation, but that he
would make further inquiry.
“I am not aware, but I
will make further inquiry,” he said in a text message to TheCable.
