Recall that a Chinese company, Zhongshan Fucheng Industrial Investment Co. Limited, was recently granted an order to seize a Dassault Falcon 7X, an Airbus A330-243 and a Boeing 737-7N6/BBJ belonging to the Government of Nigeria.
Zhongshan, the company whose export processing zone management contract was revoked by the Ogun State Government in 2016, had sought the intervention of the French court in his contractual dispute with the state government.
In its ruling, the court ordered the seizure of the three jets belonging to the Nigerian Government.
Reacting, Ekpa, known as the Prime Minister of Biafra Republic Government In-Exile, in a post on his X microblogging account on Friday, said that there were possibilities that the United States may seize more Nigerian assets.
Ekpa said he had personally spoken with U.S. officials regarding the seizure of the assets.
According to him, if President Bola Tinubu and his government failed to stop asking the Finnish government to extradite him to Nigeria, he will “consult with our ”friends” in Washington DC about having more assets seized.
Meanwhile, the Chinese firm said it released one of the three presidential jets to the Nigerian Government on Friday.
