Drug trial: KC Luxury challenges order preserving properties

Businessman and social media influencer KC Luxury has contested a Federal High Court order in Lagos that preserved his properties, arguing that the legal proceedings that led to the order violated his constitutional right to a fair hearing. Kazeem, who is on trial alongside two others for alleged cocaine trafficking and money laundering, is seeking to have the September 25, 2026, order set aside, have the proceedings dismissed and have the affected assets released immediately.

His defense lawyer, Emefo Etudo, argued that the prosecution should not move forward with its request for a report on compliance with the preservation order while the defense was challenging the legal basis for the order. The defense further alleged that Kazeem was denied due process as he was not served with a hearing notice before the preservation order was made, and that he is currently in critical condition due to serious respiratory complications.
