The Unites States Congress may soon vote on a bill that will allow President Barack Obama and his government keep all of Abacha's loot recovered in the U.S.
According to reports, if the vote is passed, the loot will be held in trust by the US government for victims of boko haram insurgency.
The bill tagged H.R. 528 was sponsored by Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee who represents the 18th District of Texas. Speaking on Wednesday (May 11) at a Congressional subcommittee hearing on the U.S. role in helping Nigeria confront Boko Haram and other threats in Northern Nigeria, Ms. Jackson Lee sought the Committee’s support for H.R. 528.

Hmmm! Buhari's Friends are beginning to buharia. Idi Igbo ndewo nu!
ReplyDeleteThat bill is a useless bill. Now you want to tell us where to spend our monies that you helped stole. What nonsense. This US Thinks must control every other sovereign nation with their dominant foreign policies.
ReplyDeleteWhy do you allow yourself to be controlled in the first place? What were you doing and where were you looking when your money was being stashed away in these foreign lands? Stop deceiving yourself; no country doesn't have its own interest.
DeleteOrigin of Corruption "USA" pls. #BringbackourAssets now.
ReplyDeleteStupidity of US. Holding in trust for Boko haram victims does not make any sense
ReplyDeleteSince he admitted Nigeria is 'fantastically' corrupt what do you expect?
ReplyDeleteSo who is fulling who? Is going about recovering and harassing people the way to fight corruption? People are dying in your country, you are busy wasting our money on your foreign trips
ReplyDeleteOh, USA is the origin of corruption! be fooling yourself. And yet that country remains the Worlds greatest power in almost everything. I guess they use the corruption to the advantage of their country.
DeletePerfect move! US government to use the loot for victims of boko haram insurgency.
ReplyDeletethe money recovered so have no positive impact in Nigeria Right from Obj regime. Nice Move!!!
