The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) has said the plan by the government of President Muhammadu Buhari to share the $350million (around N115 billion) loot recovered from former military ruler, late Gen. Sani Abacha among estimated 300,000 households, with each getting around $14 (around N5,000) a month is “mis-targeted and would not bring any tangible benefits to the beneficiaries.”

SERAP said, “The authorities have a legal obligation under the UN Convention against Corruption to which Nigeria is a state party to make sure that the returned Abacha loot is properly and efficiently used, both from the viewpoint of using asset recovery as a tool of ensuring justice to victims of corruption and breaking the cycle of grand corruption. But the plan to share the loot among households is mere tokenism and would neither have significant impact on poverty alleviation nor satisfy the twin objectives of justice and development.”

The government announced last week that it would, starting from July, distribute the returned loot by the Swiss authorities to around 300,000 households, with each getting around $14 a month.

Reacting, SERAP in a statement today by its deputy director Timothy Adewale said, “Rather than spending the loot to fund the National Social Safety Net Program (NAASP), President Buhari should, within the framework of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), create a central recovery account/trust funds, with oversight mechanisms to ensure repatriated funds are transparently and accountably spent to invest in tangible projects that would improve access of those living in poverty to essential public services such as water, education and health. Distributing N5,000 to household would neither improve the socio-economic conditions of beneficiaries nor achieve the enduring value of a more transparent and robust system to manage recovered loot.”

The organisation said, “The return of the Abacha loot is a chance for President Buhari to commit to the enforcement of the 2016 judgment by Justice Mohammed Idris, which ordered his government to publish disclose the spending of recovered loot since 1999 by past and present governments till date, as well as details of projects on which the funds were spent; and to vigorously push the National Assembly to pass the Proceeds of Crime Bill. Buhari should make these happen before the next general elections if he is to truly demonstrate his oft-repeated commitment to fight grand corruption.”

The statement read in part: “The government should source funds elsewhere to continue its NAASP. The authorities should do the right thing with the returned loot and show Nigerians that they can properly and efficiently invest the funds in projects that would provide tangible benefits to the victims of corruption who are the socially and economically vulnerable sectors of the population. The authorities can use the loot to fund universal healthcare programme and a tuition assistance programme that would provide post-secondary/university education scholarships to young Nigerians from poor families and who would otherwise lack the resources to carry out their studies.

“In any case, distributing the returned loot to households in 19 states because the remaining 17 state governments have not yet put in place the appropriate platform through which to implement the NAASP is both unfair and discriminatory. The planned distribution is also vulnerable to abuse and corruption by state governors, who may push for the funds to be given to their supporters and thus used for parochial and political purposes. The proper and efficient spending of recovered funds is key for development and can support efforts to combat grand corruption.”

“Spending returned looted funds offers an opportunity to right wrongs committed by corrupt officials, rebuild public trust, and invest in the development of communities most affected by grand corruption in the country to improve the prospects for meeting many of the Sustainable Development Goals. It is important for the authorities to ameliorate the plight of communities that have borne the brunt of years of grand corruption by providing genuine opportunities for the socially and economically vulnerable sectors for personal development, and access to essential services as well as promoting the rule of law particularly by enforcing the judgment by Justice Idris.”

“President Buhari should re-negotiate the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Swiss authorities in full consultation with the communities affected by grand corruption and to ensure that the returned loot is used to promote justice and development. Using asset recovery to promote justice and development is about letting those who abuse their power for personal gain foot the bill for projects that would improve access of victims of corruption to essential services and pursuing genuine poverty alleviation programmes.”

It would be recalled that President Buhari made the recovery of stolen assets a major part of his 2015 election campaign. Switzerland is believed to have returned about $1bn to Nigeria over the last 10 years. Roberto Balzaretti, one of the Swiss officials involved in the negotiations with Nigeria, reportedly said that the returned loot would be paid in instalments and in small amounts from July under the supervision of the World Bank, which will also conduct regular audits. Mr Balzaretti also said that “if the first instalment is not properly accounted for, subsequent payment will be halted.”

It can only happen in a country like nigeria...!!!

Theyshuld habd them over to the student for investigation and soldiers for prosecution / further investigation...

Police finally arrest SARS men who raided, brutalised 20 university students in Ondo

- The arrest of five Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) who invaded a hostel in Adekunle Ajasin University in Ondo state has been confirmed by the police command in the state

- The spokesperson of the command, Femi Joseph, said that the commissioner of police, Gbenga Adeyanju, has demanded the full investigation of the development

- Joseph also said that the suspects are being interrogated in the bid to determine the degree of their involvement in the crime

The police command in Ondo has arrested five of its operatives attached to the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) who on Monday, June 18, allegedly brutalised not less than 20 students of Adekunle Ajasin University located in the Akungba Akoko area of the state.

The arrested SARS men, according to Femi Joseph, the spokesman of the command, included one inspector and four officials from different ranks, Daily Trust reports.

Joseph said that the commissioner of police in the state, Gbenga Adeyanju, has demanded thorough investigation into the development.

He said the suspects were being interrogated by the command in a bid to ascertain their level of involvement in the crime.

Joseph said: "Three students that were arrested has been released and the CP has ordered full investigation and after the investigation if the policemen were found guilty, they would definitely pay for it; we don't allow indiscipline in this command.”

"I also want to use this medium to call on any of the students who were brutalised to come to my office with evidence and I promised we won't spare any officer found culpable.”


The police spokesperson said the command needs the evidence to prosecute the officers for the offence, adding that “any crime without witness and evidence is dead on arrival.”

Earlier, NAIJ.com reported that some men of Ondo state police command, attached to the SARS on Monday, June 18, allegedly brutalised not less than 20 students of Adekunle Ajasin University.

NAIJ.com gathered that eyewitness account had it that the policemen invaded the hostel in a commando-like manner without any respect for the privacy of the students. He said the policemen told them that they were searching for some cult members in the hostel.

North Korea’s Kim Jong Un brought with him his own portable toilet to Singapore for the Tuesday’s summit with U.S. president Donald Trump.

President Trump and North Korea’s Kim Jong Un are both in Singapore for their highly summit, the first of its kind between a U.S. president and a leader of North Korea.


South Korean news agency The Chosunilbo reported that when Kim arrived in Singapore on an Air China Boeing 747 and was accompanied by an IL-76 transport plane carrying food, “his bullet-proof limousine and a portable toilet.”


Accordingly to Lee Yun-keol, who worked in a North Korean Guard Command unit before defecting to South Korea in 2005, that’s par for the course.

“Rather than using a public restroom, the leader of North Korea has a personal toilet that follows him around when he travels,” Lee Yun-keol told the Washington Post.

The reason? They are protecting against a literal info dump.

“The leader’s excretions contain information about his health status so they can’t be left behind,” Lee Yun-keol explained.

Similar travel considerations are reportedly made whenever the North Korean leader conducts on-site inspections of military bases and state-run factories across the country.

In fact, according to the South Korean news agency, Daily NK, there is a customised bathroom built into Kim’s convoy of vehicles at all times.

“The restrooms are not only in Kim Jong Un’s personal train but whatever small or midsize cars he is traveling with and even in special vehicles that are designed for mountainous terrain or snow,” a source in South Pyongan Province

familiar with Kim’s Escort Command told the DailyNK in 2015. “There are multiple vehicles within the convoy so that people cannot tell which one he is in, and there is a separate car that acts as his restroom.”

So, in this respect at least, it seems this historic summit is no different than Kim’s other excursions.

He simply always uses a personal, highly guarded toilet in “loo” of public facilities.

Sure there is more to the story,how did she knw the person is a foreigner in the first place,guess the stranger must av flashed some foreign currencies thereby making her understands if she hlps she will be rewarded bfor the bike man sets in his own action and it went on like that,in the nig of today does any one just tlk to a stranger?....
