The Federal Government says it is set to recover a fresh $321 million stolen by former military head of state, Gen. Sani Abacha.
It also said it will soon seize other assets linked to a former governor, James Ibori, and an ex-Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
This was revealed in Wednesday during a Federal Executive Council meeting presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The agreement on the Abacha loot is expected to be signed next week, according to the Attorney-General of the federation, Abubakar Malami.
Mr Malami said the agreement is a tripartite understanding between Nigeria, the Island of Jersey, and the United States of America, as part of the country’s efforts to recover more stolen funds stashed abroad.
Mr Malami also said the funds will be deployed for the construction on Lagos to Ibadan highway in the South-west, Abuja to Kano in the north and the Second Niger bridge.
