Nigeria’s anti-corruption agency has announced that it has discovered about $43m in a flat in Nigeria’s Lagos city.
Officials from the agency stormed the said flat upon a tip-off. Nigerian officials say the money was from illegal activities.
Last month the same anti-corruption agency also found banknotes worth $155,000 at an airport in northern Kaduna city.
No arrests have been made in connection with the latest seizure.
