United States Embassy in Nigeria has announced that another $319m (N121bn) Sani Abacha, former Nigeria military dictator, loot is in the United Kingdom and France.
This comes about a week after Nigeria got $311 million Abacha Loot from the US and the Bailiwick of Jersey.
“The funds returned last week are distinct and separate from an additional $167m in stolen assets also forfeited in the United Kingdom and France, as well as $152m still in active litigation in the United Kingdom,” the embassy said in a statement on Wednesday.
It added that the United States will continue to help “combat corruption and to ensure a successful outcome in the return of these funds.”
