Malami is facing 16 counts under the Money Laundering Prohibition Act of 2011, allegedly involving the acquisition of properties worth billions during his tenure.
The EFCC has invoked the non-convict asset forfeiture clause to seize the properties. The trial is scheduled to begin in Abuja, with a team of 14 lawyers prosecuting the case.
Malami is accused of laundering funds through companies like Rahamaniyya Properties Limited and Metropolitan Auto Tech Limited.
