Saleh Mamman, who served as Nigeria's Minister of Power from 2019 to 2021, was convicted in May 2026 for laundering N33.8 billion intended for the Mambilla and Zungeru hydroelectric projects. Following a trial involving the diversion of funds through proxy companies and bureau de change operators, Justice James Omotosho sentenced him to 75 years imprisonment. Mamman initially became a fugitive after failing to appear for sentencing but was arrested by the EFCC on May 20, 2026, in Kaduna State. The court also ordered the forfeiture of multiple Abuja properties and various foreign currencies.
