US Government Should Stop Returning Looted Funds To Nigeria by ProjectNaija(m): 7:43pm On Feb 23, 2020 |
US GOVERNMENT SHOULD NOT RELEASE ANY MORE LOOTED FUNDS TO NIGERIA TILL A RESPONSIBLE AND TRANSPARENT GOVERNMENT IS ELECTED. Thanks to the Department of Justice(DOJ) of the United States government, Nigerians were once again regaled with the latest attempted heist of the Buhari administration that has now gained notoriety for the mindless and rapacious looting of our commonwealth. Though we were not surprised at this revelation given how the last tranche of recovered Abacha loot was re-looted and used for vote buying during the last elections under the guise of giving it to the poor, as patriots who are concerned about the welfare of our fellow Nigerians and how the country’s resources is being mis-managed in the light of pains on Nigerians caused by this same directionless government, we cannot but lend our voice to condemn the continued assault on Nigerians by this gang of criminals who are currently parading themselves as the leadership of the country. According to the officials of the DOJ, the Nigerian officials involved in the negotiation to transfer the Abacha loot back to Nigeria were more interested in protecting the interest of the chairman of the APC governor’s forum Abubakar Bagudu by ensuring that he got a share of $110 million from the recovered loot under some dodgy “agreement” than in ensuring the interest of the Nigerian State that they were supposed to be representing and this was even at the risk of jeopardising the co-operation of the American government in the further recovery of other looted funds that have been seized from other fraudulent Nigerian politicians. Despite this administration’s so called anti corruption mantra, looting of our national resources has now become a statecraft with the leadership of the administration actively promoting and protecting corrupt officials who are loyal to them. As a result of this they continue to pile up more debt for the country with absolutely nothing to show for it whilst majority of Nigerians continue to sink into poverty. We will also like to use this opportunity to commend the DOJ for exposing this fraud and encourage them not to release the money in question to the current administration as the money will only end up being re-looted again. Instead they should hold the money in trust for the Nigerian people until an administration that is truly accountable to the people comes to power and there is certainty that the funds will be used to take care of the interest of the Nigerian people.

Nigeria has a democratically elected government. If we continue with this, not even your own preferred government would lay hands on monies belonging to the nation. |

An NGO need to write an official letter to Trump and ask him to keep the money. It never trickle down to the common man on the street, so what's the need? Keep the money and use it pay school fees and tuition for indigent Nigerian students seeking American education. Undergraduate and Graduate students of Nigerian origin in the US need that money more than walking looting machines gallivanting on the corridors of power. They've looted enough. 4 Likes |

SciLab: Is that why your lord and personal saviour Obasanjo agreed to pay the sums to Bagudu? Forget it, the USA would pay the money and all you'll do is cry. |

I so agree. Instead, they should spend the money on behalf of the FG to carry out infrastructure that we need. 2 Likes 1 Share |

voltron14: Another vicious lie and propaganda that APChit retrogrades have been spreading. The agreement Obasanjo had with the Abacha family is totally different from the one Buhari has with Bagudu. |
