The President Muhammadu Buhari's administration seems to be living up to expectations in its fight against corruption and cause to recover looted funds with another case of the alleged siphoning of public funds being exposed. It can be recalled that Premium Times on Wednesday exclusively reported that former Finance Minister, Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala illegally
appropriated N61.4 billion Abacha loot to the office of the National Security Adviser under former NSA Sambo Dasuki, she has now denied having anything to do with the alleged misuse of the arms procurement fund.
In a statement on Wednesday evening by her spokesperson, Paul Nwabuikwu, the former minister said she disbursed the part of the Abacha loot to the NSA office following the recommendation of a committee set up by former President Goodluck Jonathan.
