Utter nonsense. Fictitious figures splashed on the pages of newspapers with no real evidence. This government thinks every nigerian is a phool. You have recovered this much money, and yet you were going from country to country to beg like a dog. And after they all turned you down, you then placed a fuel tax on Nigerians. Keep on fooling yourselves and the pathetic Yorubas. In 2019, you will see wehn.

Lmao! Muhahahahahahahahahaha! This guy harsh gaaan! But all you said here is plain and undiluted truth!

ArmedRobber:

And that is why I said he is clueless
So he didn't have any plan with it before aiming to be the GCFR
the dullard is absolutely inept

Kudos to the government. Corruption needs to be talked first, but the names need to be mentioned, or maybe it was a plea bargain. Whatever it is, they should endeavor to print out the names of the corrupt bastards or they will repeat same in the near future

My brother, it was very wise of the govt not to mention names becaue that wud ve stalled future possible recoveries! And it also wud ve incured several suite from diff angles!

The recovered funds and assets were listed under four broad categories, namely, cash recoveries; recoveries under interim forfeiture; funds awaiting return from foreign jurisdictions, and non-cash recoveries.

The office of the Attorney-General of the Federation also recovered N5,500,000,000 (five billion, five hundred million naira) and $5,500,000 (five million, five hundred thousand dollars) in cash.

Buhari had said in an interview during the global anticorruption summit in London, “So far, what has come out, what has been recovered in whatever currency from each ministries, departments and individuals, I intend on the 29th to speak on this because all Nigerians are getting from the mass media because of the number of people arrested either by the EFCC, DSS. But we want to make a comprehensive report on the 29th.”

The president faced widespread criticism when in his Democracy Day speech on May 29 he failed to disclose the recovered funds as promised.

Now they've recovered some trillions, u're tellin them agn how to use it. Nigeria can never be better with such followers like this no matter the quality of the leaders. ESAU GENERATION!

Only N78bn cash has actually been recovered, this story was actually being twisted for sensationalism. The rest trillions of the money was termed 'interim forfeiture,' made up of mainly funds belonging to alleged looters which were frozen. FG doesnt really have the right to touch those moneys, they still belong to the owners unless a law finds them guilty and orders them to forfeit the cash.

something still beats my imagination in this whole scenario, if as claimed that such amount has been recovered why then is the government of the day complaining of lack of funds for the implementation of the budget, if the said recovered amount exists then it should serve as an alternative in bringing the budget deficit only if they are telling us the truth because this regime is synonymous with falsehoods

Good, so PMB can fund the budget now with this recovered money. All other income from sales of oil should go to foreign reserves, if we here again that Nigeria is broke then we will know finally that we have been scammed.

Pls tell me when am I going to get my own share from the money cuz me I don't want stories this time. Stories like we have invested 55b in power, 700b on road and transportation cuz this is how the money will disappear again.

Kullant:

It is not to just celebrate his achievement but the question is "what will he do with the recovered money? "

Haven watched Nigerian politicians over the years, I dare to say that this is political propaganda. Believe it at your own peril.
Insincere set of leaders.

Nigerians are not interested in figures but to do some meaningful things will benefit an average Nigerians. It seems this Government is clueless and visionless. All it knows how to is propagation of lies and heating of the polity.
