What about the accrued interests? Switzerland is as corrupt as the person they helped to stash the money in their banks

[color=#000099]Why do we Nigerians lack ability to think clearly?

When Money is looted the looter is the country where the money ends up and the Nigerian politician who stashes it there is merely an agent of the looter.

Also it is obvious that when the agent (corrupt Nigerian politician) dies the looter (e.g. Switzerland ) can quietly take the loot to be their money.

Why? because the politician has stolen the money the looter (in this case Switzerland ) can keep the loot and the politician would not be able to make any noise. Hence why the real looters are countries holding the loot.

Also in any case at the very least in a criminal case anybody who handles stolen good is an accomplice to the crime and should be treated like the person who stole the goods.

Imagine if you caught a thief with your money he stole and he has the audacity to give you conditions under which terms he would return your money.

Can you imagine that Swiss has said that they have only 0.7 Bn of so called Abacha loot yet nearly 20years after since Thief Obasanjo commenced the fake attempt of loot recovery , there is still $0.3 Bn to return.

Who has ever seen an Abacha family member in any court where the court (whether in Nigeria or abroad) established that Abacha looted any money?

Please lets start thinking a little.


The looter here is Switzerland. Abacha is just a conduit

I also think buhari lack of galactic financial team with inside connections in the workings of world bank is costing and hunting him. Just see pre negotiation conditions! We hope his Islamic bankers in Saudi comes to his Aid cos IMF, world bank and co have already blacklisted Nigeria as a result of Buhari acrobatic economics.

lalasticlala, obinoscopy ishilove


The past regime that had all the giant financial team left us in shambles.. Now we are left to dance to the music. It's a shame on nigeria, Switzerland giving us conditions to return our money. I wouldn't blame them though.

They have seen how returned Abacha loot was re-looted under GEJ: now they are given us conditions before they can repatriate our money back to us because they still have 'stealing is not corruption' utterances by Otueke Clueless at the back of their mind.

What a national disgrace and shame GEJ and his looter had brought upon this country.

For the records, Nigeria is like chaff before the wind when compared to those countries you mentioned. Nothing weighty about her. A country that can barely generate and transmit steady 3000mw of electricity to her 200 million population is a disgrace in the comity of nations.

Bro, try and have the fear of God in you nah!Nothing innovative to borrow from dangote. he is an opportunist. Which ever way you look at it, Nigeria is doomed from now to 2019 save crude magically sells for $150 per barrel.
and we still got a wise man like this in Naija? My bro you deserve a cheque for this reply! Spot on! Niggy

Back to this same questions I always ask
What is Swiss governments giving Nigeria?
Is it the Profit or the Capital?
What is killing the economy is the invitation of Portfolios investors, friends of the NOI who came to Nigeria to feast...they borrow at low interest from oda countries and came to Nigeria to give us the money at double digit in liquid investment and refused to invest in capital projects....they almost kill Nigeria...Portfolio investors are killers of economy, they should never be allow ever again. NOI worked 4 dis people and God will judge her. our government should borrow directly from country wit single digit interest and invest on capital projects, manies and Agriculture

Na today? Nigeria will meet the requirements jaaare and as usual, the monies will be spent on projects such as National Assembly, Foreign Travels etc ......shebi na to benefit the people naaaa grin

Greyworld:
Switzerland has given conditions for repatriating $321m looted fund to Nigeria.

Part of the conditions is that the fund will be used for projects that will benefit Nigerians and they (the projects) must be monitored by the World Bank.

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Geoffery Onyeama said that the government was working on the modalities for the repatriation.



Speaking shortly after holding a meeting with the Swiss Foreign Minister, Didier Burkhalter, on Tuesday in Abuja, Onyeama explained that Nigeria had signed an agreement with the Swiss government in the area of human right and migration.

He said, “It is $321m that we are looking at repatriating to Nigeria and the modalities are basically legal framework for that, mutual legal assistance framework that we are trying to put in place and there are pre-conditions that are also in place already and this requires monitoring mechanism.

“So, we have to agree beforehand as a pre-condition on what the money would be used for and the World Bank would be part of the monitoring process to ensure that the money is used for the benefit of Nigerian people.”

The Minister stated that Burkhalter’s visit was significant as it marked the commencement of the fund repatriation process, noting that other looted funds may be discovered in hidden accounts in Swiss banks.

Burkhalter said his country and Nigeria have a very constructive relation, adding that Switzerland planned to open a consulate in Lagos that would boost economic relations between the two countries.

He said his country would repatriate $321mn to Nigeria and pledged Switzerland’s continued assistance to IDPs in the country.

“We would continue to help in the humanitarian assistance in the North, for those who are suffering and we would try to write another chapter of the history of illicit asset recovery and restitutions from Switzerland to Nigeria,” Burkhalter said.

If Abacha wasn't corrupt, then GMB can also steal billions and won't see it as corruption. Or how else do you want us to understand this?

Ol' boy, dis your maths na wa o. We're in trouble in this country.

That's why when they said Diezani stole $50b, people just believed it. Lots of people have problems with numbers. They cannot understand the scale.
Nigerian daily oil intake is peanuts if shared to every citizen for example.

Creating an enabling environment, education, infrastructure, etc by government is all it can do. Not frivolous spending like our politicians do.
