A civil society organization, the Citizens’ Coalition Against Corruption (CCAC), has petitioned the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), calling for an investigation into the conduct of a senior official in the Nasarawa State Judiciary.
In a letter dated September 22, 2025, and signed by its National Coordinator, Comrade Yahaya M. Abdullahi, the group urged the EFCC to look into the activities of Mr. Musa Jimoh Alonge, who serves as Director of Enforcement in the state judiciary.
The coalition expressed concerns over what it described as issues relating to financial dealings, property ownership, and workplace practices. While stressing that its claims were based on witness testimonies and preliminary analysis, the group said only a thorough investigation could establish the facts.
Among the matters raised were questions about Mr. Alonge’s alleged involvement in private business ventures, his handling of land-related enforcement duties, and his approach to staff management. The group also pointed to what it viewed as possible irregularities in asset ownership, calling for a forensic audit to clarify the situation.
The petition further suggested that some of these concerns may have affected public perception of the judiciary, and recommended that the EFCC’s intervention would help restore confidence in the system.
The CCAC urged the anti-graft agency to review land transaction records, examine the ownership of certain hospitality businesses reportedly linked to Mr. Alonge’s family, and conduct a financial review of his assets.
In its appeal, the coalition emphasized that the petition was not a verdict but a call for due process. “No one is above the law,” the group noted, adding that its intention was to ensure accountability and strengthen trust in Nigeria’s institutions.
As of the time of filing this report, neither the EFCC nor Mr. Alonge had issued a formal response to the petition.
