The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) yesterday announced that it has taken over the mansion of Alhaji Abdulfatah Ahmed, the former two-time governor of Kwara State over N5billion indebtedness. In a statement, the Corporation said that the action followed the order of Justice Abdullah Liman of the Federal High Court, Lagos Division. According to the statement: “Hon. Justice A.M.
