Money laundered by former Nigerian dictator and army general Sani Abacha has been seized from a bank in Jersey, Channels Islands by a British court.

The money worth £211,000,000 was put into accounts held in Jersey by Doraville Properties Corporation, a British Virgin Island company.
Abacha was a Nigerian army officer and de facto president between 1993 until his death in 1998. During this period, he laundered money through the United States to the Channels Island.

The money will be held by the government until authorities in Jersey, the US and Nigeria come to an agreement on how it should be distributed.
Any money that Jersey does keep will be put into the Criminal Confiscation Fund, which is used to pay for a variety of projects. In the past the fund has been used for the new police station and developments at La Moye Prison.
It is expected that even more money held by Doraville is likely to be seized and paid into the Civil Asset Recovery Fund in the future.

Metro UK reports that, Attorney General Robert MacRae said: ‘In restraining the funds at the request of the United States of America, through whose banking system the funds were laundered prior to arriving here, and in achieving the payment of the bulk of the funds into the Civil Asset Recovery Fund, Jersey has once again demonstrated its commitment to tackling international financial crime and money laundering.’

THE LATE GENERAL SANI ABACHA LOOTED THE TREASURY TO BREAKING POINT WRECKING NIGERIA FINANCIALLY WITHIN A 5 YEARS PERIOD OF HIS GOVERNMENT.

I DOUBT IF NIGERIA CAN RECOVER THAT MONEY FROM BRITAIN.

THE SAME WAY WE CAN HARDLY GET BACK THE MILLIONS OF NAIRA THAT WAS FLOWN OUT UNDER THE COVER OF BUYING ARMS TO SOUTH AFRICA BY THE GOODLUCK JONATHAN ADMINISTRATION USING THE PRIVATE JET OF PASTOR AYO ORITSEJAFOR WHICH THE SOUTH AFRICA AUTHORITY SEIZED THE CASH THAT WAS BEING CONVEYED.

BRITAIN HARDLY RETURN MONEY TO ITS TRUE OWNER.

BRITAIN IS NOT EU COUNTRIES LIKE SWITZERLAND, GERMANY, ETC OR THE UNITED STATES.

THE IBORI LOOT WHICH INCLUDE CASH WORTH POUNDS STERLING VALUE, MAGNIFICIENT APARTMENT, ASSORTED CARS, BOMBADIER AIRCRAFT WERE ALL SEIZED FROM THE EX-GOVERNOR OF DELTA STATE AND WERE NEVER RETURNED.

Re: British Court seized Abacha loot worth £211m by Scetrocom: 2:48pm On Jun 04, 2019
If buhari can say Abacha is not corrupt, then his own definition of corruption is quite different from what any reasonable person will think, and only God knows how much buhari himself must have looted from our treasury. Apart from those collected by the previous governments( Obj,yaradua and GEJ),about 100billion Abacha loot was recovered last year by buhari from swiss govt. That money is a subject of controversy now as nobody could account for how it was spent within a very short time. As far as I'm concerned, there is no difference between APC and PDP as far as treasury looting is concerned.

It is most certain that the money Abacha allegedly stole and laundered must have been from the crude oil sale and deals.
If this position is true, how do we conveniently divorce Abacha's theft from his petroleum minister?

That's what your link quotes Buhari as saying. And the article is an editorial by ipob journalist Ochereome Nnanna trying to translate the quote into "Buhari never stole"
Can you please help me with the link where Buhari actually said Abacha never stole?

Okay.. I know your type.. Even if you get the quote you will say it is coming from an IPOB sympathizer

YET SOME FOLKS WILL PRETEND THEY ARE NOT CORRUPT AND ARE SAINTS OF D DEVIL. ABACHA WAS NOT CORRUPT ACCORDING TO BUHARI,SO ABACHA WAS SAVING ALL THESE MONEYS FOR NIGERIA ABROAD. LIARS AND THIEVES ARE TO SPEND THEIR AFTER LIFE IN HELL EXCEPT CHANGES TAKE PLACE IN THEIR LIVES NOW.

They should release the money into construction projects, monitored by agents of the British, or paid to a concession company for massive development of roads and infrastructure, it can also be used to run a power project.

Bros, there is nowhere, no time that Buhari ever said Abacha never stole.
And only humans have been equipped with the ability to lie, and it is humans that put things on the internet. So wise up Nwa. Embrace truth even if you don't like it.
