‘What Alison-Madueke’s loot can fund in Nigeria’
August 10, 2017

Agency Report

The Buhari Media Support Group (BMSG) on Thursday in Abuja, said the stolen funds traced to former Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, could fund infrastructure development in the country.
Specifically, the group said in a statement by its Chairman, Austin Braimoh, and Secretary, Cassidy Madueke, that government could build six world-class airports in each geo-political zone with part of the funds.
It said that the recovered loot was also enough to have funded agricultural projects that would have generated employment for Nigerian youths.
It added that the N47.2 billion and 487.5 million dollars in cash and property traced to Alison-Madueke by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commissison (EFCC) were also enough to complete the Lagos-Kano and Lagos-Calabar rail lines.
It recalled that the Federal Government was already seeking loans for the rail projects.
The group called on Nigerians to join hands to condemn the massive looting of the nation’s treasury by officials of previous administrations.
It expressed belief that the loot traced to the former minister was a “far cry’’ from what she and others in the past governments pilfered from the national treasury.
According to it, these monies stashed in foreign accounts forced the Nigerian economy to suffer instant depression.


The group recalled that Mrs. Madueke and her associates, including Kola Aluko, Jide Omokore, were currently being tried by the US government for allegedly laundering over 1.7 billion dollars.
It urged Nigerians to have a collective resolve to fight what it described as “psychotic and mindless’’ type of looting exhibited by indicted government officials in their days in government.
This, it said, could halt the craving to loot public treasury by government officials.
The group reminded Nigerians that though the fight against corruption was the foremost policy thrust of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, “the fight might not attain maximum result unless Nigerians willingly resolve to join in it’’.
“This synergy is necessary so as to fight the art of looting and other forms of mismanagement in government.’’
It stated that all concerned Nigerians should be organising widespread protests to condemn looting of government funds by officials, past and present, as often revealed by the anti-graft agencies.
It advised that Nigerians should also stop dissipating energies on attacking Buhari, “the main fighter of corruption’’ over his health challenge.
The group commended anti-graft agencies, particularly EFCC, for their sustained efforts in exposing corruption in Nigeria.
It appealed to the agencies not to give up but to ensure the prosecution of culprits looting of the nation’s treasury. (NAN)

Now.that the monies are recovered, you can dedicate it to the rail project.

Instead of it to be relooted by so called appropriation bill order of budget why not directly with executive fiat used it to fiance national project that all will have the dividends.. ...Na lie borehole and... shiooor!

Abeg, charge her to court and jail her. Media trial isn't going to help this country. I no wan begin call names of looters, even those sponsoring this present government.
If you have enough evidence to get a conviction, move to court ASAP, even in absentia she can still be tried in court.

That is exactly what the Finance Minister said when asked. She said that the money would be used to finance critical infrastructure like power, rail and road with a tag that "This Project is Financed from the Looted Funds".

Sometimes what you call media trial are reports of events from the court. The houses and monies in accounts that the court ruled to be forfeited to FG was not media trial but actual court ruling. Or dont you just want the court proceedings, rulings and judgements to be reported anymore? Whenever EFCC made some findings and media got the information somehow, do you want EFCC to deny such findings? You kind of appear as someone with sympathy for looters and someone who does not really like this administration irrespective of whether they recover loot or not. Too bad
