Contrary to her meltdown and melodrama, it has been revealed that Nora Johnson, the woman who a Federal High Court in Lagos ruled that her house be confiscated on account of her involvement in a multi-million naira fraud against her former employers, Globacom, has five stately properties in Lagos and a palatial mansion in Freetown, Sierra Leone, where she hails from originally.
These houses are, according to the courts, proceeds of crime.
This was contrary to the message in the viral video where she was seen wailing that her only house was about to be taken from her.
Since the court found her guilty, Johnson and her accomplices have returned N507 million to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, with a promise that she would pay the balance in due course.
Another substantial amount of money was refunded few days ago by her co-conspirators.
The embattled woman was accused by her former employers of inflating air ticket fares and over-invoicing on purchases of vehicles reportedly to the tune of over N1 billion.
Following an application on behalf of the Federal Government of Nigeria by the EFCC, she was charged to court, which led to the interim forfeiture of her house.
Johnson has reached out to several prominent Nigerians begging them to plead with her former employers to temper justice with high degree of mercy.
