The Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar III, has urged the President Muhammadu Buhari administration to publicise the details of recovered loot and how the money was expended, while asking the anti-graft agencies to be accountable to the people.
He disclosed this on Tuesday when he featured on the zonal dialogue with stakeholders on the National Ethics and Integrity Policy organised by the Office of Secretary to the Government of the Federation.
The event was convened in collaboration with the anti-corruption agency, the Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission for the North-West in Sokoto.
The Sultan charged the government to keep Nigerians abreast of how much loots it had recovered and what they were spent on.
He said, “Nigerians need (an) explanation on how much was recovered. Where is the money, and what are they doing with them?
“This explanation is necessary considering the state of our education and other infrastructure like roads which need serious government attention.”
The monarch who was represented by the Wazirin Sokoto, Prof. Sambo Wali Junaidu, tasked anti-graft agencies to be wary of keeping mute on the recovered loot, which, according to him, will negatively impact the fight against corruption in the country.
