Diezani’s loot can fund infrastructure development – Group

Buhari Media Support Group in Abuja, said the stolen funds traced to former Petroleum Minister, Mrs Diezani Alison-Madueke, could fund infrastructure development in the country.

Specifically, the group said in a statement by its Chairman, Mr Austin Braimoh and Secretary, Mr Cassidy Madueke, that government could build six world-class airports in each geopolitical zone with part of the funds.

It said that the recovered loot was also enough to have funded agricultural projects that would have generated employment for Nigerian youths.

It added that the N47.2bn and $487.5m in cash and property traced to Alison-Madueke by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission were also enough to complete the Lagos-Kano and Lagos-Calabar rail lines.
