Jordan Wike, son of FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, has been reported to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) regarding an alleged $2.1 million land deal that did not proceed.

A civil suit marked CV/008/2026 is set for continuation on December 1 at the FCT High Court, where Justice Silvanus Oriji is presiding.

Counsel for the claimants, Ibrahim Waru, stated that the EFCC has received the petition but has not yet taken any action on it.

The petition claims that Jordan offered to assist in acquiring land in the FCT after returning to Nigeria, asserting that such transactions were handled with his father's knowledge and approval.
