In Nigeria the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for some time have seized ships belonging to corrupt persons, many of these vessels –either temporarily or permanently forfeited by suspected corrupt persons are being damaged due to lack of maintenance and have begun to sink in waters across the country.

It has since been revealed to the local press that the Nigerian Navy, which was mandated to oversee the seized, recovered or forfeited assets, had no budgetary provision to maintain them, leaving them damaged and submerged eventually.

Some Lawmakers in the country believe the problem lies with the wide gap between forfeiture and sale (auction). With Most of the ships and vessels being forfeited over five years ago, holding perishable goods, its values are in a constants state depreciation.
