According to reports from Premium Times and Vanguard News, the EFCC has argued that the UK judgement is irrelevant to the case Diezani filed in court for the recovery of her auctioned assets. The commission maintains that the purported acquittal of Diezani by a foreign criminal court is not material or relevant to the specific issues for determination before the Nigerian court. It remains unclear when this case will be heard, as the EFCC has not provided a timeline. This development comes amidst ongoing efforts by the Nigerian government to recover billions of dollars in stolen funds stashed abroad.
