The immediate
past Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, illegally approved the
transfer of at least N61.4 billion ($300 million and £5.5 million) from
funds recovered from late dictator, Sani Abacha, to the Office of the
National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki, few weeks to the 2015
presidential election, Premium Times reported.
The former Minister signed off on the transfer but then closed her eyes
to how the funds were spent, requesting then President Goodluck Jonathan
to directly demand accountability from Mr. Dasuki.
The Central Bank of Nigeria has however handed a shocking list of fund
looters to President Buhari for immediate probe. The names on the list
will likely be jailed as the president continues to tackle corruption.
