LAGOS— Less than six days to his appearance before Magistrate A. J. Atunwa at Roseline Omotosho Court House in Ikeja, GRA, for alleged theft of nine iPhone sets, Nollywood filmmaker, Seun Egbegbe, who had a celebrated romance with popular actress, Toyin Aimakhu, has been arrested for a case of fraud at the Gbagada General Hospital, Lagos. The reports, supported by a video clip, which has since gone viral on social media, claims that the filmmaker, disguised as a doctor, attempted to defraud a Bureau de Change operator of hard currency of an amount above N6 million. Confirming the report, the Lagos State Police Command has issued a statement signed by the Police Public Relations Officer, Dolapo Badmus. Seun Egbegbe In the statement, entitled Arrest of Fraudsters , the PPRO explained how the incident happened: “Today (yesterday) at about 1p.m., one Seun Karim, a.k.a. Egbegbe, and one Ayo Oyekan, disguised as the MD of Gbagada General Hospital and the other as a patient. “They lured one Alhaji Isa Adamu and Abdullahi Haruna, both Bureau de Change members, from different locations, that they needed US9,000 dollars and £3,000 pounds. “The unsuspecting victims brought same to the suspects at the hospital, where they collected the said amount and attempted to escape with the money. “The victims raised alarm and subsequently the suspects were arrested by the policemen attached to the hospital. “Further to the arrest of the fraudsters, many members of the bureau de change are trooping to the office with similar complaint against the suspects.” At the official rate of N305 to one US$, 9,000 dollars would approximate N2,742,740.12, while at N381.64 official rate for the one pound, £3,000 comes to N1,144,915.27. However, at the parallel market where one USD goes for N497, $9,000 would fetch N4,473,000, while £3,000 would fetch N1,836,000, with N612 pursuing one British pound. The total street value of the forex involved comes to N6,309,000. Recall that last November, Seun Egbegbe was arrested after he was beaten to a pulp at the Computer Village, Ikeja, for allegedly attempting to cart away nine sets of iPhones. He was subsequently charged to court and is due to appear in court February 8, after the first hearing in the case was adjourned. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/02/nollywood-filmmaker-seun-egbegbe-arrested-n6-3m-forex-scam/ |
The Group Managing Director (GMD) of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Dr Maikanti Baru, on Thursday said the corporation saved 500 million dollars (N152.4bn) on oil products sales. Baru disclosed at the opening of bid for the Direct Sale Direct Purchase (DSDP), at the NNPC Towers in Abuja. Newsmen reports that DSDP is a model introduced in 2016; carried out through direct sales of crude oil to refiners or consultants, who in turn supply NNPC with equivalent worth of products. Journalists also reports that 128 Indigenous and International Oil and Gas companies indicated interest to participate in the 2017 DSDP programme. *Gas pipelines The batch over which the bids were opened is scheduled to last for the next one year, starting from April 1. “The DSDP programme has also recorded significant cost savings of over half a billion dollars through major reduction in the amount we paid for both demurrage and the product themselves. “It ensures that the supplies from refineries are fully augmented to meet the national supply as well as a sustained over 30 days sufficiency particularly with petrol. “The programme is very transparent and the major instruments on the partnership between the NNPC and the product supplies both local and international, we have as part of this programme,” Baru said. In an interview with newsmen on the sideline of the bidding process the GMD said the requirement was that the bidder must have physical presence in Nigeria. “The major drive here is to ensure that Nigerians are not left out and to ensure that those that emerge, whether consortium or single, must have physical presence in Nigeria. “That means they must have depots or retail outlets as a minimum or they must be involved with exploration or production of crude oil. “So we will ensure that most of them are domiciled here in Nigeria. This year’s programme for DSDP is about 800, 000 barrels at most,” he said. He said the tenders will be based on West African quality specifications and we will maintain the latest which is 50 per cent of sulphur content. It was equally reported that the corporation saved a billion dollars from the DSDP programme in 2016. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/02/fg-opens-128-bids-saves-500m-oil-products-dr-maikanti-baru/ |
Alexchubee:You are right |
Justice awaits you dudes |
Hell awaits you bro |
When a relationship is doing more harm to you than
good, it’s time to quit it. Jumia Travel shares 4 signs
to help you determine when a relationship is doing
more harm to you than good. ABUSE Be it physical or emotional abuse, any type of abuse is a glaring sign that you should quit the relationship. Please don’t be lenient with abuse or make excuses for it; simply let go and move on because abuse is one of the clearest ways to communicate a lack of care, love and respect for someone. Abuse does not go hand in hand with love, if anything they are polar opposites. Although, one thing to note here is that emotional abuse is more relative than physical abuse. For instance, there is arguably a degree of emotional abuse in every relationship. When you try to control your partner or influence them emotionally to act or behave in a certain way, by ignoring them (ignoring their calls, messages etc), refusing to talk to them (the silent treatment), being provocative with the other sex (trying to make them jealous) and so on, to a degree that’s emotional abuse. These are all elements of emotional abuse that are born from the very fair fact that we are human. But when emotional abuse becomes dangerous, is when you begin to lose your confidence and live in fear of what your partner is going to do to you next emotionally. LIES If anyone you are in a relationship with, be it a romantic relationship or a friendship, constantly lies to you or finds it difficult to tell you the truth, it communicates a lack of trust and a lack of respect for you. If you can’t trust the person(s) you are in a relationship with, things remain unsettled. Such lack of trust can lead to paranoia (an intense feeling of anxiety, fear and unrest) for you, which is very unhealthy. Without trust, there is no point remaining in the relationship and continuing to torture yourself emotionally. THEY NEVER ADMIT THEIR FAULTS This is one thing most people ignore as a red flag in a relationship, probably because they don’t understand just how important it is. When someone finds it difficult to admit they are wrong, the next thing they do is pass the blame. Now when you are constantly at the receiving end of the blame, even if you are fine with constantly saying you are sorry, you allow what is called a “cognitive dissonance” to be formed in your mind. This means that as you continuously act in a way that contradicts your beliefs, eventually your beliefs will change to align with your actions. In other words, after a while you will begin to believe you are the one who is always wrong and start to doubt your ability to perceive what’s right and wrong. Eventually, it ends up affecting your ability to make decisions and be assertive as individual, and you end up constantly feeling confused, having lost confidence in yourself and abilities. It’s truly a terrible place to be, so please don’t let any relationship take you there. CONSTANT FEELING OF BEING OVERWHELMED When you constantly feel overwhelmed by your relationship, almost like you can’t get a break; when you look back and can’t remember any significantly joyful memory in your relationship, you should acknowledge that it is abnormal. As much as a relationship can at times bring you sadness, it should also bring you joy. If all you can remember when you think back on you relationship, is a long thick dark tiring stretch of fights, pain and sadness, with little or no joy, that’s not appropriate. Relationships may not generally be very easy but they should not suck the life out of you, leaving you miserable and unhappy. |
The Supreme in Abuja on Friday dismissed a suit filed by the Federal Government challenging the Land Regularisation Policy of the Lagos State Government. A seven-man panel of the apex court, in a ruling, upheld the preliminary objection filed by the State Government to contest the legality of the suit. By the policy, the State Government had specified the process of ratifying the title of holders of Certificates of Occupancy said to have been obtained from the Federal Government. But the Attorney General of the Federation (AGF) represented by Mr. Olisa Agbakoba (SAN), had in a suit with reference number SC/50/ 2011, invoked the original jurisdiction of the Supreme Court to challenge provisions of the policy. While arguing the case, Agbakoba had cited particular properties where title holders were required by Lagos State to pay certain amount as “Ratification” of their title before any other transactions can be permitted on such land. But by way of a preliminary objection, the State Government raised objection to the effect that the Supreme Court could not exercise original jurisdiction in the matter, reason being that the subject matter was a land matter within the exclusive jurisdiction of the High Court. The office of the State’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, also argued that the AGF lacked the locus to file the action on behalf of the Federation against the State Government on account of the fact that the matter in dispute was between Federal Government and the Lagos State Government. The arguments of the State was said to have been based on a recent judgment of the Supreme Court delivered in 2014 where the apex court held that disputes between a State Government and the Federal Government cannot be arrogated to the Federation of Nigeria in order to cloak the Supreme Court with Jurisdiction to hear same. After considering arguments for and against the suit, the Supreme Court in its ruling delivered by Justice Clara Ogunbiyi held that although it did not agree that it could not entertain the matter in its original jurisdiction, but from available evidence, the Federal Government had divested itself of the titles to properties which were subject of the suit and therefore had no locus to bring the action. The preliminary objection of the State Government was therefore upheld and the suit dismissed. By the decision, the Supreme Court has now laid the dispute to final rest. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/supreme-court-dismisses-fgs-suit-challenging-lagos-land-regularisation-policy/ |
Abuja – The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
Governors’ Forum on Friday announced the
appointment of Gov. Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state as
its new Chairman.
Gov. Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa made the
announcement while briefing newsmen on the
outcome of the Forum and PDP Caucus meeting which
ended in the early hours of Friday in Abuja.
Fayose
Dickson said that the PDP chieftains had a very
fruitful deliberation on the state of the nation and the
party.
“As an integral part of the discussion, the governors
of our party, among ourselves, as well as those who
were unavoidably absent, unanimously appointed a
new PDP Governors’ Forum Chairman.
“In line with the tradition of our party, we agreed to
appoint our colleague, the most senior governor in
PDP, Ayodele Fayose, the governor of Ekiti as new
Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum.
“You are all aware that he is a committed party man,
doing a wonderful job in his state. He is well
experienced and committed to the ideals of our party.
“We have all unanimously appointed him as the new
Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum to coordinate
the affairs and activities of our forum and to work and
collaborate with other structures of our party,” he
said.
The Bayelsa governor, on behalf of the forum,
expressed appreciation for the sacrifices and
contributions of the outgoing chairman of the forum,
Gov. Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo state, to the forum and
the party.
“He did a very wonderful job while he served as our
chairman, leading and coordinating our activities.
“He is now rounding off his meritorious eight years’
service to his state and to Nigeria.”
He said that the forum wished Mimiko well as he
would continue to work as a leader to move PDP and
the nation forward.
Speaking with newsmen after the announcement,
Fayose said that he had accepted the responsibility to
work as chairman of PDP Governors Forum.
He pledged that he would work with stakeholders,
including the National Assembly, to restore the glory
of the PDP.
“I take this responsibility at a time the party needs
somebody to stand up. I am sure you all know that we
will do it to represent Nigerians well.
“It is a call to pull the walls of Jericho down; it is a
call to make a difference.
“I want to assure you that within the next few months,
the mobilisation, the consultation will be so effective
and there will be a new beginning for our party –
different and enriching,” Fayose said.
He also commended his predecessor, Mimiko, for his
contributions to PDP, saying time would not permit
him to continue.
“I will take over from where he stopped. Come 2019,
we will take over again, we are going to come back
again,” he said.
Fayose added that some people in their imaginations
believed that PDP was divided but that in a short
while, the party would be stronger than ever.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that
leaders of the party present at the meeting pledged
their support for Fayose.
Chairman of National Caretaker Committee of the
party, Sen. Ahmed Makarfi, said leadership would give
Fayose the needed support.
Chairman of the Board of Trustees (BoT), Sen. Walid
Jubril, also pledged the board support to Fayose.
“This is the beginning of success and the
continuation of the party to be one.
“So, all speculations by any other person about the
disintegration of the party are gone. We are one and
we will continue to be one,” Jubril said.
Deputy President of the Senate, Ike Ekweremadu,
assured that members of the party at the National
Assembly would support the new leadership of the
party’s Governors’ Forum. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/fayose-emerges-pdp-governors-forum-chairman/ |

Minister of State for Aviation, Senator Hadi Sirika has said the need to concession the maintenance of airport infrastructure and the building of new ones across the country is inevitable as that is the only way to maintain high standard and efficiency in the running of airport operations across the country in keeping with global standards. Sirika made this justification when he received a delegation from the International Enterprise Singapore led by its Director, Middle East and Africa Group, Ian Lee. He said government is strongly committed to providing an enabling environment for investors to thrive in the aviation sector with rules and regulations to make the industry economically attractive. According to Mr James A. Odaudu, Deputy Director, Press & Public Affairs, Ministry of Aviation, the minister also said the government has made concerted efforts on the improvement of security in the country with the virtual defeat of the Boko Haram insurgents that had terrorized the nation in the immediate past, and also “ confirmed that the procurement processes for the Concession and the National Carrier had reached advanced stages as government would soon appoint Transaction Advisers.” “He expressed delight at the interest shown by International Enterprise Singapore and other Singaporean firms in Nigeria’s aviation industry and assured them of the federal government’s openness and preparedness to work with all serious minded and sincere investors who have the know-how to contribute to the nation’s development.” Sirika also used the visit to explain the rationale behind the decision to temporarily shut down operations at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport Abuja for repair works on the airport runway, saying it was purely based on safety considerations He also explained that while the whole renovation work would last for six months, the six-week closure would enable the restoration of the runway to a usable state. Responding, the leader of the delegation and Director of the Middle East and Africa Group of International Enterprise Singapore, Ian Lee said they were in the country to establish their interest in building business relationships with Nigeria and Nigerian companies, especially in the Aviation Sector where they have identified the on-going Airport Infrastructure Concession and the proposed National Carrier as areas of high interest. He told the Minister that the main purpose of IE Singapore is to drive Singapore’s external economy, by growing Globally Competitive Companies and promoting international trade to ensure Singapore’s growth in a globalized world. He further disclosed that with 39 offices in over 20 countries, in addition to being based in Singapore, IE Singapore offers services to help enterprises export, develop business capabilities, find overseas markets and to enter new markets, through its Global Company Partnership and Market Readiness Assistance frameworks. According to him, Nigeria represents the future of the African continent going by its political and economic stature which has placed it in the leadership position it now occupies. This, he said has made the country highly attractive to prospective investors, especially from Singapore and expressed his country’s desire to forge a better and mutually beneficial economic relationship with Nigeria. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/concessioning-nigeria-airports-inevitable-sirika/ |

End time pastors all over. |
Really |
A number of residents of the Federal Capital Territory
(FCT) have attributed the pressure on single ladies to
get married at certain age in Nigeria to societal
beliefs.
Society expects females to get married in their 20’s as
they are seen to be at the prime of their beauty,
strength, fertility and maturity.
The residents, who spoke in Abuja on Sunday, gave
their opinions on various factors that made women
feel pressured by society to get married early.
Miss Toke Makinwa, an entrepreneur, and a blogger
on marriage issues, said that fertility was taken into
strong consideration by society, therefore putting
pressure on women to get married at their prime.
“Women below 30 are known to have better chances at
having healthy pregnancies and healthy children, so I
believe that women who are getting closer to 30 and
haven’t gotten married feel immense pressure from
society.
“Having parents stress the fact that they want to have
their grandchildren early does not help matters too, so
I assume fertility is the underlining cause of the
societal pressure on single women,” she said.
Mr Marcus Solomon, a stock broker said that women
allowed the pressure get to them because they think
men view beauty and fertility as the deciding factors
for marriage.
“Women are at the prime of their beauty and fertility
when they are in their 20’s, but that doesn’t mean
they can’t be as good looking or productive when
they are older.
“It also doesn’t mean that they will suddenly become
barren or their fertile eggs will become fried eggs or
something of that sort, so they should relieve
themselves of the pressure from society.
“However, I think that the major thing that makes
women feel pressured is the fact that they believe that
men are attracted to only beautiful women and their
beauty will wane as they age.
“Women should know that all good men look for a girl
who is presentable, but also has a good personality
and character and no matter the age she is, the man
will marry her if she makes him happy.
“The lady in question just has to be patient and be
realistic with her expectations of a relationship,” he
said.
Mrs Nwanneka Agbasi, an accountant, said “I believe
that young women also pressurise themselves
because they feel left behind by their friends and
peers.”
“When they begin to notice that most of their friends
are getting married and having children while they
themselves are not even in a serious relationship,
they tend to get worried.
“Most will put on a brave face and force themselves to
be patient, but deep down they are wondering if they
have a major flaw that has caused them to remain
single.
“Coupled with the fact that age comes with its
physical effects, the desperate women will see the
need to settle with any man possible even when they
know the man is not right for them.
“Ladies shouldn’t be pushed into marriage because
marriage is not an easy task, it is something that can
be emotionally and mentally draining, which is not
easy to manage.
“Everyone looks at the expensive and lavish Nigerian
weddings that hold, but no one talks about the high
level of divorces and the individuals coping with
unhappiness and domestic violence in their marriages.
“I believe it is better to be single and happy, than
depressed with a spouse.” |

Former Military President and elder statesman, General Ibrahim Babangida, has called for national unity, noting that “in our collective and individual resolves, we should keep Nigeria’s unity, irrespective of sectional, religious and cultural leanings”. Speaking on the occasion of the 2017 Armed Forces Remembrance Day Celebrations, Babangida expressed joy that this year’s celebration is coming at a time our armed forces are gaining more ground in the fight against insurgency. In a statement by his media office, IBB said, “As we celebrate the Armed forces remembrance day, we should take a stock of our uniqueness and sacrifices by our men and women of the armed forces especially the fallen heroes that paid the supreme sacrifices of maintaining peace not only in our country but beyond the shores of Nigeria”. Commending the military for containing Boko Haram terrorists, Babangida posited that recent events across the country on general insecurity and economic sabotage are a source of concern to every well-meaning Nigerian. Meanwhile, Niger State Governor Abubakar Sani Bello has expressed displeasure over the way and manner soldiers who fought for the peace, unity and progress of the country are neglected and pleaded for a special attention and support for them. He made the passionate plea during the launching of the 2017 official launch/ sale of poppy to mark the Armed Forces Remembrance Appeal Week, held at Government House, Minna. Announcing a cash donation of N6million, on behalf of the state government and a personal donation of N250, 000, the governor directed all local government councils in the state to support legionnaires. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/armed-forces-remembrance-day-celebration-2017-ibb-sues-national-unity/ |
yanabasee:U mean both couples and singles do enjoy sex |
Considering the chaos of family life, you might imagine this
to be a special occasion but we have sex practically every
night. Intimacy is a huge part of our 14-year relationship,”
the glue that bonds our marriage together. Having three
children is no excuse for letting your love life dwindle”.
Anjola is reacting to the view that the more children a
couple has, the more they relegate sex to the back burner.
“I feel desperately sorry for couples who find themselves
boxed to this unfortunate corner,” she continues. “It is a
surprise they would let a crucial side of their relationship
wane. Luckily for me, I am self-employed and work
flexible hours.
But after a day spent looking after the children, I yearn
for my husband’s embrace. His desire for me makes me
feel alive, confident and secure. It has boosted my self-
esteem and I believe helped me through postnatal
depression, as well as the devastation of two miscarriages.
I could never imagine going for days – let alone months
– without making love with him.
“I was 21 and doing my youth service when we met and
he was one of the bosses in the logistics company I
served at. When we started dating, we waited months
before making love. When we did, the chemistry was
palpable – and it has remained so over a decade together
and three children. For some women – and their partners
– the thought of sex during pregnancy is a huge turn off.
But for me, that’s when my libido goes through the roof.
Fred used to joke: ‘Leave me alone, I’m exhausted!’’’
Surely, she and her husband couldn’t be at it every day?!
“Of course not! there are times when nature knows best.
Like most new mums, sex was the last thing on my mind
immediately after giving birth. But it never even occurred
to me that things wouldn’t pick up again in the bedroom
as soon as I healed. After my six- week check-up, we
became intimate again and it felt so natural.
It was gentler than before the birth, but a relief to be
able to show each other physica1 affection again. Not that
it was plain- sailing- I struggled with over-tiredness and
began to suffer lethargy. I also had a bout of postnatal
depression and was prescribed antidepressants.
“For some, libido vanishes with depression. But, if anything,
sex became more important to me, as it helped me more
than any medication. The endorphine release that sex
produces boosted my feel-good hormones like no tablet
ever could. Admittedly my body has changed after three
children, but the fact that Fred found me attractive made
me feel sexy and desirable. We are lucky that our children
sleep well.
I can understand why some others feel too exhausted to
want sex. But on my most bleary-eyed days, I can spare
an hour to be intimate with my husband’s physical
attention as much as he needs me. I make an extra
special effort for him too, and whatever drab clothes I
have on, underneath them I always wear beautiful,
matching, lacy lingerie. It is as much a treat for him as it
is for me.
“Today, sex is just as important to us as it ever was, if
not more so. As busy working-parents of three children,
you might expect us to have to schedule it into the diary,
but that would spoil the fun. Instead, we simply go to bed
around 10.00pm and make love most nights. I’d have to
re-evaluate my entire relationship if I hadn’t had sex for
more than a few days. It’s not that I think that Fred
would look elsewhere. Some women say they go off sex
because their body has changed or their partners body has
altered.
My husband and I are by no means perfect specimens. I
was very slim when we met but I’ve put on some weight.
Fred’s weight has fluctuated too. But in all that time,
we’ve never stopped fancying each other.
“Fred is my best friend. He was here before we had our
children and he will be here when they’ve flown the nest.
We see it happen so often – couples separating when
their children have left home because they have nothing at
all in common. 1 could never allow that to happen … ‘’
A Leopard and its Spots! (Humour)
A couple return from their honeymoon and it’s obvious to
everyone that they’re not talking to each other. The
groom’s best man takes him aside and asks what’s wrong.
“Well” replies the man, “when we finished making love on
the first night, I got up to go to the bathroom and placed
three N1,000 notes on the pillow without thinking.”
“Oh, I shouldn’t worry about that too much,” says his
friend. “I’m sure your wife will get over it soon enough.
She can’t expect you to have been saving yourself all
these years.” The groom, nods his head gravely and
continues: “I don’t know I’ll get over it though.
“Tonight, once our three young children are in bed, my
husband Fred and I will head upstairs together for an
early night,” says Anjola, a 36-year old cosmetologist. “We
might have a glass of wine each and, afterwards, give
each other a massage and, chances are, we’ll make love
before falling asleep in each other’s arms.

care about looks, money or background. All she wants is a

and tells them the only thing he is seeking in a woman is
intelligence.
The agency matches them together at once. They have
one thing in common – they’re both compulsive liars! |
If you’re single, you imagine all your problems would be
solved if you had a partner. If you’re in a relationship, you
might wonder if life would be more exciting on your own.
But when it comes to sex, is it better when you’re single
or is there something about a relationship that makes sex
more intense?
Single Sex: Singletons can enjoy casual sex with no
strings attached. They can freely sleep with whoever they
choose…. You’re free to enjoy the moment and may not
think too much about the future. Sex can be spontaneous,
carefree and exciting. You can have sex with somebody
you know, but sex with a stranger can be more of a thrill
as it can be easier to lose your inhibitions.

Casual sex is seen as risky and naughty, and can give deep
physical satisfaction. It can also leave you emotionally
empty. They are only life-affirming if both of you want
the same. Be sure to protect yourself and your lovers
from sexually transmitted infection and pregnancy by using
good contraception and condoms every time you have sex.
Couple Sex: Most relationships go through an intense
period at first when you can’t keep your hands off each
other. Because you’ve invested more in each other
emotionally; the sexual highs and sense of fulfilment are
immense. But the stakes are high and you risk greater
heartache if things go wrong. After about a year, the
intensity of sex and the passion
changes. You know your partner and it’s difficult to shut
out the more mundane things in your life.
What you get instead is a sense of satisfaction with life
as you feel more secure in your relationship. But you can
get complacent. Without working at your love life, nights
together can soon become mundane and routine. |

ABUJA — The Federal Government, yesterday, stated
that the United States was reluctant to release over $
550 million to Nigeria, being proceeds from identified
Gen Sani Abacha loot in the country.
Special Adviser to the President on Diaspora and
Foreign Affairs, Mrs Abike Dabiri-Erewa, made the
disclosure when she addressed newsmen on Asset
Recovery and Asset Return organised by the
Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption,
PACAC, in collaboration with Office of the Special
Adviser to the President on Diaspora and Foreign
Affairs, Abike Dabiri-Erewa.
Erewa said: “America is keeping the funds, they are
telling us about technicalities, they are saying recover
doesn’t mean they can return them.”

She lamented the delay in the return of the funds,
stating that the person who steals is just as guilty as
the person who keeps stolen funds.
She said: “The person who steals is a criminal, the
person who keeps known stolen funds is also a
criminal. We are here to state that every Nigerian in
disapora, friends of Nigeria, should join this
committee in demanding that every stolen fund of
Nigeria recovered in any part of the world should be
returned to Nigeria.
“You can’t give us aid of a billion dollars and keep a
billion dollars of funds you have recovered from
Nigeria. We will join the committee to embark on an
advocacy with Nigerians outside the world to appeal
to these nations to do everything possible to return
what belongs to Nigeria.”
In his remarks, Chairman of PACAC, Prof Itse Sagay,
SAN, stated that the fund was different from the earlier
$480 million forfeited to the US following a court
judgment in August 2014.
Sagay lamenting that the tracing, seizure, forfeiture
and return of Nigeria’s assets laundered outside the
country had become a challenge due to the
uncooperative nature of the countries in possession
of the fund. http://www.vanguardngr.com/2017/01/nigeria-lose-another-550m-abacha-loot-us/ |
