The United States government through the US Secretary of State, John Kerry, has reassured the Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government at the Anti-corruption Summit Plenary in Lancaster House London, United Kingdom, that it would return at least $350m of stolen money from Nigeria.
According to Kerry, “This money goes somewhere, folks. When I read that tens of billions of dollars were stolen from President (Muhammadu) Buhari’s country by generals and put into other nations, some of it in our country – and we are now working to restore $350 million back, and there’s more to be restored to the people.
“And every one of those million dollars that comes back to a country is the opportunity to provide a desk and a chair and school and shelter and health care and meet the needs of nations. That is why we organise ourselves in the world around rule of law and in an effort to try to provide for our citizens,”
