Treasury Looting: Nigerian Supreme Court Strikes Out Suit Filed By Late Dictator, Abacha's Sons Seeking To Stop Investigation Of FamilyThe Supreme Court of Nigeria sitting in Nigeria has dismissed a suit filed by family members of the late military dictator, General Sani Abacha, seeking to stop moves by the Nigerian government to reopen the criminal forfeiture proceedings against the former despot.
The government's fresh move to reopen the fraud investigation is targeted at some family members over their alleged complicity in looting the nation’s treasury during Abacha’s regime.But delivering his judgment on Friday, Justice Emmanuel Agim dismissed the suit for want of merit and substance, according to a report by Daily Post.
Over $5.3 billion stashed abroad by Abacha has been recovered by the Nigerian government in the last 24 years. According to a report by the Nation, under the military regime of Abdulsalami Abubakar in 1999, $750 million was recovered.Under former President Olusegun Obasanjo’s administration between 1999 and 2007, $1.2 billion was recovered in 2002; $149 million from Jersey Island, UK in 2003; $500 million was recovered in 2004 from Switzerland and another $458 recovered in 2005 from Switzerland.
