BRITAIN PROMISES NIGERIA TO RECOVER ALL LOOTED FUNDS.

Nigerians have been assured that looted funds
from the country in the UK would be recovered.
This assurance was given by Britain’s Minister of
African Affairs, Mr. Grant Shapps, in Kaduna, on
Tuesday, during the inauguration of £100m
programme on public sector and good
governance.
According to the envoy, Britain would help Nigeria
improve her security and prosperity.
He said the incidence of corruption in Nigeria
directly affects Britain, adding that the European
country would provide Nigeria with the expertise
to tackle corruption.
He said, “Nigeria matters to the UK. The UK is
fully committed to helping Nigeria increase its
security, stability and prosperity.
“Tackling corruption is imperative to that. We
share and support President Muhammadu
Buhari’s commitment to rooting it out.
“We will continue to provide capacity building and
technical and investigative support to Nigeria to
tackle corruption and we are scaling up this
support. We have an opportunity now to develop
a comprehensive partnership across these areas.”
Speaking on the occasion, Kaduna State Governor,
Nasir el-Rufai, said the emergence of Buhari was
a divine intervention aimed at reposition the
country.
