About $32bn was lost to corruption during the six-year administration of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, the United Kingdom’s Department for International Development said on Monday.

The agency said the huge amount represented 16 per cent of the previous government’s resources that could have been channeled to development.

The agency’s Head of Office, DFID Nigeria, Debbie Palmer, said this at the expression of undergraduate debates challenge to celebrate this year’s international anti-corruption day.

The event was organized by a non-governmental organization, Youngstars Foundation Initiative in Abuja.


She said millions of dollars tied up in legal challenges remained in other countries.

Palmer said: “An independent report estimates that up to $32bn was lost to corruption under the previous government. This is around 15 per cent of state resources during the period and could well be an under-estimate.

“So the estimate is that nearly 16 per cent of the previous government’s money was lost to corruption. That is a staggering amount of money. And that is money that is to all of you and to your future. That is why we all should care about corruption.

“Millions of dollars also remain in other jurisdictions tied up in legal challenges.”

Palmer said youths in the country have a critical role to play in President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-graft fight.

She added that the UK is committed to supporting Nigeria to tackle corruption in all its various forms through its anti-corruption programme in Nigeria.

Are you trying to compare 16 years of PDP administration with 2 years of APC?

Jesusloveyou:

Are you unsure that barawo bubu and his 40 thieves cabal presidency cannot answer with their corrupt MaguN of the EFCC whom the barawo has kept on the post illegally

anonimi:





Acting Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Mr. Ibrahim Magu, has rented a mansion in the elitist Maitama District of the Federal capital territory (FTC) Abuja, News Express can report this morning.

The storey building located at No. 8B, Rudolf Close, off Katsina Ala Crescent, in the highbrow Maitama District, was the abode of a former federal minister who died some time in May 2014.

An impeccable source said: “The property was rented to the Acting EFCC Chairman for N40,000,000 at N20,000,000 per annum.

“Furthermore, the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) curiously awarded a contract to Africa Energy, a company owned by Rtd Air Comm. Umar Muhammad, to furnish the residence at the cost N43,000,000, in a Government where the President is known to have frowned at and rebuked his ministers for requesting N20,000,000 each to secure accommodation and furnish them.

“It is shocking that the man spearheading the anti-corruption crusade of the government will be involved in such a venture. More surprising is the involvement of FCDA in renting a house for EFCC and under what arrangement.”

News Express made efforts to get the reaction of Magu and EFCC but the commission’s spokesmen Osita Nwajah and Wilson Uwujaren did not respond to text messages sent to them seeking their reaction to the story.

If the senators confirm him on the job what more will Magu do?

Stop defending nonsense!

Nonsense like Maina, the pension thief sacked by Jonathan but reinstated and promoted by barawo bubu and his 40 thieves cabal presidency of the All Poverty Congress, APC

#Mainagate: Maina Received His Salary And Treated At Least 20 Files In October After Buhari Ordered His Sack -Lawyer

Maina's Request For Reinstatement Was Work In Progress claims AGF Malami
NOV 23, 2017

he Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami , Head of Service of Federation , Winifred Oyo-Ita , Minister of Interior , Abdulrahman Danbazzau and Acting Chairman of the Federal Civil Service Commission, Joseph Oluremi Akande have all denied their involvement in reinstatement of the former head of the Presidential Task Force on Pension Reforms, Abdulrasheed Maina.

They made this denial while giving their statements under oath before the House of Representatives Adhoc Committee Investigative Hearing on the disappearance, reappearance, and promotion of Maina at National Assembly in Abuja.

Please tell us when the oil price was ever at $140?
Why do All Poverty Congress, APC zombies tell lies as if they are breathing oxygen?
BTW, I thought the kwaroshun-fighter has plenty of money for bailouts to governors, where is that coming from
Yet the governors are not paying salaries because they know that the barawo in Aso Rock cannot do them nothing since he is busy stealing like there is no tomorrow.

Why is no one asking why we are in recession despite budgets as follows:

2015 - N4.5 trillion
2015 - N2.1 trillion supplementary requested / N575 billion approved
2016 - N6.06 trillion
2017 - N7.3 trillion

Wandaful

Jonathan almost finished this country if not for the timely intervention of APC.
That is why we SS and SE should endorse Buhari for second term cos he will thoroughly sweep away the mess left by Pdp.

I see corruption recycling itself.....PDP, APC all join....they are all birds of a feather....

Corruption changing clothes and parties!

True that so let us focus on the better individual to deliver, unlike the baba promise & FAIL currently in Aso Rock, who is a barawo per excellence.
Barawo bubu and his 40 thieves cabal presidency of the All Poverty Congress, APC are no option as they have wrecked our country completely.

Slowly ke?
Far too many Nigerians have died under the vision-less barawo bubu and his 40 thieves cabal presidency.
Under the All Poverty Congress, APC all we have are:

- Suicides
- Ritual killings
- Libya migrant slaves and killings
- Boko Haram attacks
- Suffering galore

NgeneUkwenu:
lalasticlala

Lalasticlala, let everyone see this. And do something about that data consuming troll up there. Tank you.

This report is baseless. It states "Goodluck Jonathan serves as Nigeria's President for 6 years", but that's fallacious. He was sworn-in as President on May 5, 2010 & handed over on May 29, 2015. Even an illiterate knows that's 5 years. It's hard to believe a literate wrote this.

Atiku2019:
2017 don end we still dey talk about GEJ

Wandaful

As in??
Complaining abt the previous govt for good 2 years and your own adminstration is stagnant without progressing

See this same stupid APC government in kano state

If u guys can't recover wat has been stolen n prosecute d looters, stop talking about it, move on.

This present administration is just annoying

No man moves forward looking backward.

how much did we loose during Abacha and OBJ.

Can NgeneUkwenu get a life and move on
