President, Muhammadu Buhari, revealed yesterday that his administration has taken further efforts to recover Nigeria’s stolen funds, by identifying some banks and other financial institutions where the money has been deposited.
Buhari made this known on Monday in Abuja during an audience with visiting U.S. Congressmen, led by Representative Darrel Issa.
According to a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, President Buhari told the Congressmen that his administration would welcome more regular meetings of the Nigeria-United States Bi-National Commission.
The statement further said the administration had also identified countries in which payments for stolen Nigerian crude oil have been deposited.
At the meeting with the U.S. Congressmen, President Buhari acknowledged the support and cooperation his administration was getting from the international community in gathering required intelligence for tracing and recovering stolen national resources.
I hope the money recovered will be channeled to areas where the common man can benefit from....God bless Nigeria.
