The Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, on Wednesday, disclosed that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation has started refunding the $1.48bn unremitted fund into the Federation Account as recommended by an audit firm, PriceWaterHouseCoopers.
She, however, did not disclose how much has so far been refunded by the corporation.
She also denied reports that she was seeking the assistance of some highly-placed persons in order to escape prosecution for alleged corruption from the incoming administration of the President-elect, Muhammadu Buhari.
Comments
SoStar: Whether it is $1.5bn or $20bn that is being refunded, it is a lot of money because it can take care of many challenges. If they had not done an audit on the NNPC, would they have refunded the money? I also doubt if the money would have been returned if Jonathan had won re-election.
I have noticed that the report covers a year. What has happened in the corporation in the past 10 years? Also, the entire report has not been released. The entire report should be published.
Jeremiah Mbong: This is shameful. The minister should tell Nigerians why the money did not make it into the Federation Account in the first place. Why did it take forensic accountants to find the money?
How many more forensic accountants do we need to conduct to see where Nigeria’s stolen money is? How long has the NNPC been sitting on that pile of cash? Who controls the account the money was kept? What about the interest? Did the outgoing President know about the money?
Why is the NNPC not honest with Nigerians, especially as it concerns their collective wealth? Reporters should ask these officials tough questions and not just report what they say.
No one is asking any question on this billion dollar scandal.
Dr. Schofield: The minister should go to jail for this. We need to start with her to correct wrong actions that have been taken.
Ola: The fear of Buhari is the beginning of financial uprightness. Welcome to a new Nigeria!
She needs to be shaken. Put her in the midst of 12 area boys so that she can confess where all the money has been stashed.
