Fed Govt recovers over N200b in final forfeiture

That was the question the Attorney-General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami tried to answer on Thursday at the Special Town Hall meeting organised by the Ministry of Information and Culture in Abuja.

Malami, who was represented by Mr. Abiodun Ayodeji, Special Assistant to the President on Financial Crimes, said: “The recovery came in multiple. Amongst these are the 2.5million dollars in partial recovery. We also have 75million dollars connected to the Malabu transactions”. Mohammed noted that the anti-graft fight was still a war in progress, noting that the achievement of other key programmes was closely intertwined with the success of the war.

”This is not the first time Nigeria is fighting the canker worm of corruption. But it is the first time that the fight is being backed by a strong political will, with a President renowned for his honour, dignity and incorruptibility personally leading the fight. And that is making all the difference, as you will soon hear from our panellists.

“I want to reiterate that the anti-corruption war is not Buhari’s war, It is Nigeria’s war. Hence, the need for every citizen to support it. Part of the efforts to win the support of Nigerians is to carry them along every inch of the way.
