The Presidency has stated that the successful repatriation of stolen funds from decades of export abroad have been use to fund social, unemployment and welfare programmes.

Malam Garba Shehu, President Muhammadu Buhari’s media aide, stated this in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja.

Shehu said that many politicians can not wait to return to the days of looting, massive corruption and export of ill-gotten money to foreign bank accounts, and so can not wait for Buhari to exit office in 2023.

What the Presidency is saying

While revealing that Buhari has no intention of running for a third term, he said that so many of the political elites of the country cannot wait for the President’s second term in office to end.

“They yearn for a return to the good old days of helping themselves to public funds with abandon, the easy export of ill-gotten money to foreign bank accounts, of acting without responsibility, accountability, or censure. The last thing they want is ‘another Buhari.”

“Even though the President will stand down after the election of a successor next year – whether that successor lives up to the exacting standards and example he has set or not – his legacy is strong and will be peculiarly tough to dismantle,” he stated.

Shehu said that the successful repatriation of stolen funds under Buhari’s administration has been used to fund public projects.

Shehu added that the strong legacy of President Buhari includes, the successful repatriation of stolen funds from decades of export abroad and its use to fund social, unemployment and welfare programmes for the poorest.

“The successful repatriation of stolen funds from decades of export abroad and its use to fund social, unemployment and welfare programmes for the poorest; reforms that have taken the steam out of centuries-long ethnic and tribal disputes – such as the farmer-herder clashes – long used to stoke ethnic and regional tensions by venial politicians for political advantage; and the protection of millions through an effective vaccine roll-out programme,” he said.

He added that Buhari’s greatest achievement is breaking the belief that Presidents of Nigeria take the office and use it to enrich themselves and their accessories at the public’s expense.
