Kemi Adeosun and Recovered Loot
Recovered Loot: Kemi Adeosun
Issues Fresh Statement
The Minister of Finance, Mrs. Kemi Adeosun has disclosed that her ministry has been mandated to manage assets
recovered from treasury looters. Adeosun, speaking in Abuja on Friday, lamented that some of the recovered items were mind-blowing.
Adeosun said she would soon allow journalists take a look at some of the recovered assets, including a collection of very expensive jewelry.
In addition to over N115 billion in local and foreign currencies, the federal government had disclosed recently that it
recovered 183 buildings, and five vessels, among others, from looters. She however assured that if the current
war against corruption was sustained, the nation would swim out of recession earlier than envisaged.
“Fighting corruption is fundamental and if we stick with that and all the money
stolen or diverted is directed at projects that could grow the economy, we would recover,’’ she said.
