The building is located along Igbeti Rock Street, Maitama.
It was gathered that, apart from the private security guards,
no other person was within the premises when the
policemen arrived.
More than 20 policemen, who came in three Hilux vans and
another Toyota Hiace bus, were said to have forced
themselves into the building.
They were said to have broken into the building and went
away with a brown envelope.
A source, who witnessed the incident, told our
correspondent that the heavily armed policemen were brief
in their operation.
The source said, "Men of the Nigerian Police Force raided
the home of the former First Lady, Patience, today. A
reporter from one of the television stations who witnessed
the event was harassed by security officers and her phone
was seized.
"The operation, which took place at Igbeti Rock Street,
started at about 5 pm. The policemen came in four vehicles
and they also took away one hefty brown envelope. They
didn't speak to us on why they came or on the contents of
the envelope."
