ona dey happy? buhari's tenure go hard ooh!

Yes for people asking why Nigerians are happy about an anti-corruption news.

aieromon:
They should send the cheques to Buhari. All account owners will then be invited to an interview session to explain the source of the funds.

That would be a good move.

Boss13:
Nice move. I wonder if the UK and US would do likewise. Both countries are quick to label Nigeria a corrupt country, but proceeds from corrupt countries are never repatriated.

bros you funny!!!! arent you aware how easy it is to deposit money in a bank but difficult to withdraw. the same rule applies.

They sent me the message, thought they were joking anyway, i'll go claim my Money

Fear of Buhari is the begining of change

UrennaNkoli:
Saw that Dubai was trending in Nigeria and checked to see why, and saw these tweets from Nigerian journalist Fidelis Mbah! So I went to dig and found more details.

The UAE Central bank this week enacted a new policy prohibiting Nigerians who do not work in their country from operating accounts in any of their local or foreign banks. They say this is to prevent money laundering by Nigerian politicians which they claim has become rampant.

Now, they have reportedly closed accounts of all Nigerians not working in the UAE and issued them cheques equivalent to the amount they have in their accounts. All account holders reportedly have 5-working days to cash their money.

i hope they are credible news site

Sounds like good news to me...If only westwern nations could do the same.

Dubai government should have given the Checks to EFCC for the owners to go and claim them from there. Hence, only owners with legitimate fund source will collect theirs.
