President Bola Tinubu has applauded Monday’s judgment rendered by Judge Robin Knowles of the Business and Property Court in London, awarding a landmark

victory to the Federal Government of Nigeria over a firm known as Process & Industry Development Limited.

Following Judge Knowles’ dismissal of the $11.5 billion value of the award plus accumulated interest, previously won by P&ID over a failed 2010 deal to allegedly build a gas processing plant in Nigeria, on the grounds that the award was obtained by fraud, President Tinubu in a statement by presidential spokesman, Ajuri Ngelale, on Monday, commended the UK Court for prioritising the merits of the case above all other considerations.

“This landmark judgment proves conclusively that nation states will no longer be held hostage by economic conspiracies between private firms and solitarily corrupt officials who conspire to extort and indebt the very nations they swear to defend and protect. “Today’s victory is not for Nigeria alone. It is a victory for our long exploited continent and for the developing world at large, which has for too long been on the receiving end of unjust economic malpractice and overt exploitation.

“Nigeria is appreciative of the tremendous efforts of the defense team and acknowledges the role of the Federal Ministry of Justice and the Office of the Attorney-General in the process of defending Nigeria’s interest in this case,” the President stated.Banks in Nigeria can now refund and take customers seriously, write a review regarding your experience and watch their management take instant action.
