Real estate billionaire’s fleet of cars impounded by Nigerian Customs

Nigeria Customs Service operatives on Wednesday stormed the home of Sir Olu Okeowo, a real estate billionaire who lives in Ikoyi, Lagos.

Okeowo is popularly known in the state for his choice of cars.

It was gathered that the real estate billionaire allegedly failed to pay import duties on some of them.

Customs officers and men, who were at this expanse residence, seized his Rolls Royce cars.

An eye witness told DAILY POST that armed operatives arrived the premises early in the day.

“I don’t know if he was around, but they took the vehicles away from his mansion inside Parkview Estate”, he said.

It is still unclear if the businessman would be prosecuted.

Once under the radar of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commision (EFCC), Okeowo’s air conditioned garage is reportedly worth around N2billion.
