There has been speculation that the President will on his trip to the UK for the anti-corruption summit, expose the amount recovered from those who looted the National treasury during the last administration.
This is to counter the accusations that Buhari’s current war against corruption is nothing more than a witch hunt.
The Nation reports that officials were working on verifying the figure last night.
This is in a bid to furnish Buhari with enough information to be able to give a report to his colleagues at the summit.
“Contrary to insinuations that the anti-graft war of the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari is a witch-hunt, the world leaders will be presented with the nation’s fact-sheet on the fight so far,” a top source said last night.
According to the Nation, the source said “At the summit, the President will make disclosures on recovered loot and the challenges ahead. The figures have been collated by all relevant MDAs but kept under wraps as I talk to you.
“These critics will realize at the end of the day that Buhari has walked the talk on the anti-corruption war.”
The President will join 59 other world leaders in the United Kingdom to seal the pact which will make 60 countries a “no safe haven” for treasury looters.
