I will believe it when the likes of: ObJ, atiku, IBB, GEJ, PEJ, saraki, Oshiomole, tinubu, ameachi, obanikoro, okorocha , diezani and other treasury looters are on that conviction list before I can believe Mr Magun or Mugun.

And by the way, if such huge amount has been recovered , how come Liar Muhammed and ameach have been singing the : Nigeria is broke' song?

Sorry miss/Mrs, but has Comrade Adams Aliu Oshiomole ever stole your money or misused your tax to his government?

Please give us their names and the amount returned. We are really tired of these undetailed assertions.

Meanwhile if billions were actually returned, why is Amechi and finance minister telling us that Nigeria is broke and can't fund the budget?
cool cool

I sincerely hope this is all truth but knowing this current administration and their penchant for lies and propaganda I will take this with a pinch of salt.
This admin that will run to the media with any success would have long since published any conviction or return of billions of dollars as alleged.
They should look for a better story, majority of Nigerians would not believe this.

Dullard Buhari with his Efcc men are Thiefs ,Criminals and Corrupt . you're fighting your oppositions not Corruption. why not probe those behind Apc 2015 campaign funds , thief Tinubu, thief Amaechi, Thief Oshomole, thief Rochas , thief Fashola and more.

You Old Dullard Buhari can never deceive Nigerians again, our eyes are wide open
all those you mentioned didn't collect from the federal government's purse.. Buhari is probing FG funds embezzled or stolen. Up till now he has not delved into state politics...... So it's normal for only the PDP bigwigs to be probed..... It's just like if this government is voted out for example in 2019, if the government then wanna probe the past administration, then you'll have names like Ameachi, Fashola, Fayemi, Osinbajo, Buhari, Dakuku and other APC bigwigs at the federal level........ Simple... Because Tinubu, Ameachi, Fashola, etc did not get money from the NSA, which waa to be used to fight terrorism and for negotiations

And don't allow sentiments and preference for one particular politician to blind you.

They are all corrupt however you look at them and I did not single out Mr oshiomole in my comment because I listed them across parties,so don't take it personal.

We only hear figures and see pictures, but it does not reflect in the standard of living of average Nigerian.
kropotkin2:
Within the last six months, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, secured more than 140 convictions and recovered billions of dollars in stolen funds from unscrupulous individuals, the anti-graft body’s chairman, Ibrahim Magu, has said.

Mr. Magu spoke Thursday at a rally organised by the EFCC to sensitise Nigerian schoolchildren and teenagers on the perils of corruption to national development.

In a statement signed Thursday by EFCC spokesman, Wilson Uwujaren, Mr. Magu said the agency also blocked several channels that people of questionable character used to launder their ill-gotten wealth.

‘‘In just six months of this year, we have secured over 140 convictions, including some elusive ‘high profile’ criminals. We have recovered billions of dollars worth of stolen funds and blocked numerous avenues of money laundering,’’ Mr. Magu said while speaking on a theme: ‘‘We Must Win The War on Corruption and Impunity.’’

Mr. Uwujaren later told PREMIUM TIMES that Mr. Magu meant “within the last six months”.

Mr. Magu said he is enlivened by the growing optimism of Nigerians in the fight against corruption.

‘‘Citizens are now more disposed to pre-emptively act against corruption; and where the act has been committed, they are willing to work with EFCC to fish out the criminals,” Mr. Magu said.

‘‘However, in order to ensure that justice is fully served to the victim, the perpetrator and the society, it is important for us all to continue to hold everyone in the justice delivery chain accountable.”

Mr. Magu urged the citizens to increase their scrutiny of the nation’s judiciary.

“Nigerians must also take more seriously their watchdog role over the judiciary to meet the yearnings of Nigerians for justice,’’ Mr. Magu said.

A former minister, Oby Ezekwesili, decried the miserable turn of events for Nigeria.

“Nigeria is a country that the whole world agreed had incredible potentials to be one of the leading countries of the world. As a matter of fact, at the time of Nigeria’s Independence, many around the world took a bet that Nigeria was the black nation that would likely put in hot pursuit all other nations of the world in terms of greatness that it had.

‘‘Sadly, 56 years after Independence, when some of those nations that took a bet on Nigeria look at what has become of the country, they ponder what has gone wrong. But what has gone wrong is what the EFCC has been established to tackle,’’ Mrs. Ezekwesili said.

Apart from youngsters in primary and secondary schools, Clean Hands Campaign drew a mammoth crowd of civil society actors in the fight against corruption, including Citizens for Anti-corruption Corps, Rivers State and the Patriotic Forum.
