The World Bank has said it needs additional time to provide comprehensive information on the funds looted by the late Head of State, General Sani Abacha.
The World Bank told a human civil society group, Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) seeking information on the loot that for now, it is compiling information on the spending.
According to the World Bank: “In response to your request, we would like to inform you that we are still considering your request and we will need additional time because the money involved is too huge for us to handle.”
The World Bank said that although it takes just 20 working days to respond to such requests, under special cases, it could take much longer time.
The loot stolen by the former military ruler from 1993 to 1998 is estimated to be about $11.3 billion.
The Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project (SERAP) had written to the World Bank demanding information on the spending of the loot recovered from the late military dictator.

Baba go slow oya over to you. World Bank cannot handle your Aboki loot, lets see if you can handle it. start from Abacha, dont come and disturb Diezani everytime. Lets see if you are loyal to punish your northerners
ReplyDeleteAbacha $11.3 billion in 10 years dieziani $6 billion in 4 years if she had 10 years own Nigeria and turn Nigerians into modern day slavery
DeleteDidn't Baba go slow say that Abacha was corrupt?
DeleteImagine that. They shouldn't worry, they should start sending it back bit by bit na.. at least thank God they declared the money is available in their account.
DeleteAnd that stupid girl called Gumsu Abacha will come and start to insult people online when they remind her family of the magnitude of theft they were involved in. Including her brother Mohammed. Gumsu oya come and talk ur usual thrash make I hear, I'm waiting for you. With the stupid ass kissers that fan ur ego on Facebook. Shameless lot. Nonsense
Nawa oooooo this level of corruption is beyond me ooooooo
DeleteThe recovered have apparently found its way in the pockets of some miscreants in government.
ReplyDeleteHe 4 kukuma steal nigeria or sell nigeria!
DeleteOriegwu oooh
This ones are those officially hidden o!
ReplyDeleteThe unofficial ones ehn...issue go dey!
His wife(s), concubines, children, relatives, associates, boys, workers under him, etc?
I can't begin to imagine the damage this man & his likes of present day have cause to Nigeria!
I guess he managed to buy himself a spot close to Oga Satan in hell! He shd be living large there...next to Senibo Alamaisiagha on fire road! Mstchewww!
Abacha stole so much that many years after his death monies are still being recovered. Even though some monies were earlier recovered from their home and from his son at different times. They stored cash like clothes, I remember vividly how they didn't even know how to move the money around after he died. The fall out and spill over of it is what we are hearing/seeing now. And best believe it that the ones we'll never get to know is resting somewhere in one of their bogus accounts.
Delete*Recovered loot apparently...
ReplyDeleteThis is the main culprit that rendered this country useless...
ReplyDeleteHe should be given an award for the highest looter...
Most aboki in this country are thieves!...am sure Buhari is warming up to loot his own...

Meanwhile some people misappropriated the sum of 20billion dollars. The figure maybe too much for them at world bank but to Nigerians, that na small change. I am starting to think we ought to apologise to the Abachas for vilifying them all these years considering the level of embezzlement that has taken place by successive governments since 1999.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you stranger Abacha is a learner where GEJ, Ibori and Dieziani are concerned
DeleteThey better use it to pay off Nigerias debt..
