Sowore Drops Bombshell: Calls for Wike’s Arrest in U.S. Over Alleged Florida Mansions and Money Laundering
Reported By David Joshua | Sele Media Africa
Activist Omoyele Sowore has accused Nyesom Wike, Nigeria’s Federal Capital Territory Minister, of using laundered funds to purchase properties in Florida, and is calling for U.S. authorities to investigate. [1]
What Sowore Is Saying
• Sowore alleges Wike owns three properties in Winter Springs, Florida, registered in the names of his wife, Judge Eberechi Suzzette Nyesom‑Wike, and their children. [2]
• He claims these assets were bought in cash and are attempts to hide true ownership, violating Florida’s laws against money laundering and trafficking in stolen property. [2]
• The activist has asked the Florida Attorney General, James Uthmeier, to launch an investigation under the Kleptocracy Asset Recovery Initiative, which aims to recover stolen assets by foreign public officials. [1]
What This Implies
• If proven, Wike could face U.S. legal consequences including federal indictments and charges under Florida state law, which penalize using illicit or stolen funds to purchase real property. [1]
• - The allegations allege both cross‑border corruption and concealment of assets through family ownership — a tactic often cited in asset laundering investigations. [2]
What’s Next
• The Office of the Florida Attorney General has been officially petitioned. Sowore urges transparency and legal scrutiny. [2]
• Wike’s aides have begun responding, though no formal denial of all the claims has fully addressed every allegation raised. [3]
