Nigerian International and Super Eagles defender; Taiye Taiwo may be
swimming in hot water as he has been nabbed to answer questions over tax
fraud charges levelled against him by France as a Marseille court has
already started judicial proceeding to seize his mansion based in
Allauch, a French community situated east of Marseille and put at
€600,000.
According to findings of the French fiscal authorities, Taiye Taiwo
defaulted in the payment of income taxes in 2008 and 2009 as well as
property taxes in 2011 on his 900m2 home, which they say will be
auctioned at €200,000, three times lower than its market value.
