Falana to FG: declare how much stolen funds have been recovered

Activist lawyer, Femi Falana has called on the Federal Government to declare how much stolen funds it has recovered since 1999.

He said the government should use the funds to empower local government areas to provide jobs at the grassroots level to check unemployment and curb crime. He said: “Section 17 of the Constitution of Nigeria talks of equality before the law. But I am sure you will all agree with me that equality before the law is a joke in any capitalist society.

“Some of the criminal elements opened carried the loot on their heads and the police had a hard time containing the crisis. That is why we must go out and ensure injustice in the polity is addressed”
