Public officers acquire estates in pseudonyms to conceal the illegal origin of funds,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is made possible by the absence of proper documentation, the registration of titles to land and estates in the country and the non-enforcement of beneficial ownership standards.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA tour around Abuja, especially the metropolis and the central area, would show a lot of estates that are built up but empty. If they had been constructed with funds that were borrowed at market rates, I don\u2019t think any investor would have such proprieties empty; one way or the other, they would put them to use. So it is suspected that some of those estates have been used to launder ill-gotten public funds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe commission has, for example, a case in which recovered 241 houses were recovered from a public officer and another one in which we recovered 60 buildings on a large expanse of land from a public officer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/news\/2021\/10\/25\/world-bank-18-nigerian-companies-persons-blacklisted-for-corruption-full-list\/\">Corruption<\/a> in real estate aids illicit financial flows. The real estate sector is globally recognised as attractive to IFF largely because it is partially informal, it is not properly regulated, easily open to abuse, the use of shell companies, the use of intermediaries and third parties to acquire real value with proceeds of crimes or illicit funds.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI must note that major culprits and criminals who are frustrating the problems are the staff of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) and their collaborators.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The ICPC chairman, however, added that the commission has adopted different measures to reduce corruption within the real estate sector.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe ICPC, over the years, has partnered with a number of relevant registries to scale down the incidents of corruption in land tenure system by intelligence and information sharing, making available our forensic tools to analyse documents and detention of forged documents and by prosecuting offenders,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe commission has at various times commended administrative resolution, where FCDA is required to remedy whatever went wrong and to reallocate or to withdraw and allocation depending on what is the proper justice of the case at the time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is aside from prosecution of offenders where the infractions are found and breaches of relevant laws are established and in some cases, ill acquired assets are recovered and returned to victims.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He also told the lawmakers that efforts should be made to provide transparency in mass housing projects by \u201cproviding workable evaluation mechanisms to eliminate corruption generally that dog these schemes\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has stated that corrupt public officials hide under the guise of real estate investments to conceal ill-gotten wealth.
