Jordan Ezenwo Nyesom-Wike, son of Federal Capital Territory Minister Nyesom Wike, on Wednesday produced his American passport before the FCT High Court in Abuja in a $2.1m dispute over an alleged land transaction.
Justice Sylvanus Oriji had ordered the passport produced on Tuesday after Jordan told the court that he was outside Nigeria on September 26, 2025, the date the claimants alleged he received the disputed payment.
The suit, marked CV/008/2026, was filed by Safwan Garba GY and GY Global Oil and Gas Nigeria Limited.
The claimants allege that Jordan agreed to facilitate the acquisition of 60 hectares in Katampe and Guzape for $2.1m. They said $2m was intended for his father, while $100,000 was for Jordan.
They further alleged that the money was paid in cash on September 26, 2025, in the presence of Adamu Sani, Aliyu Sarki and Sai Wani, with Onor Sandy allegedly accompanying Jordan.
The claimants said the transaction was not completed and that Jordan failed to refund the money.
Jordan denied the allegations and maintained that he had no knowledge of the transaction.

During Tuesday’s hearing, he adopted his statement on oath and was cross-examined by the claimants’ counsel, Hamza Dantani. He is represented by Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Ogwu Onoja.
Asked about his whereabouts on the alleged payment date, Jordan said he was outside Nigeria and had travelled with his American passport.
Dantani applied for the passport to be produced in court. The defence did not oppose the request, which Justice Oriji granted.
Jordan presented the document on Wednesday. The court made a copy for its records and returned the original, directing his counsel to produce it whenever required.
Justice Oriji also earlier granted an application for Jordan to write his full name and signature five times each on a plain sheet of paper.
The judge adjourned further hearing to December 1, 2 and 14, 2026.
The allegations remain contested and are yet to be determined by the court.
