The Nigeria Government on Monday, May 4, 2020 confirmed receiving $311m Abacha loots repatriated from the United States of America.
This brings the total recovery of Abacha loots to $𝟯.𝟲𝗯𝗻 in 22 years.
We call on the government to provide clear guidelines and structured oversight for use of the money.
The Court of Appeal is on lockdown because staff who travelled out of Abuja could not return due to the ban on interstate travels.
