321m Abacha Loot: ‘Malami, Swiss Lawyer Monfrini May Go To Jail’
An anti-corruption group, the George Uboh Whistleblowers Network (GUWN) has affirmed that either Abubakar Malami, the nation’s Attorney General or the Swiss lawyer, Enrico Monfrini involved in the contention $321m Abacha loot will go to jail.
Already, the group has written a Freedom of Information, FOI request to Malami on Friday September 14, 2018 to produce the letter of engagement given to the two Attorneys, Okpeseyi and Adebayo reportedly engaged by Malami on the Abacha loot.
Enrico Monfrini-Nigeria’s Swiss lawyer had claimed that he recovered the $321m usd Abacha loot in Switzerland and had charged Nigeria 4-5% for the recovery.
But Malami’s claim that Monfrini has not recovered the loot, alleging that Monfrini wants to charge Nigeria 20-30%, hence he appointed two lawyers to do the job in Nigeria for $17m (5%) usd.
Monfrini had insisted that he recovered the loot, stressing that Malami is lying.
Against the backdrop of the contentious claims, GUWN wrote to Malami under the FOI Act to furnish it with letter of engagement he reportedly gave to the two Attorneys, Okpeseyi and Adebayo on the Abacha loot.
Chairman of GUWN, Dr George Uboh, in a statement on Sunday obtained by BigPen Online said, he does not expect Malami to comply to the letter of request.
He said that whether Malami complied to the FOI request or not, GUWN already has some secret documents on the dealings between the former AGF Adoke and the same Swiss lawyer Monfrini (which details the percentage Monfrini charged Nigeria.
According to him, GUWN would produce the documents when the suit is filed in court.
“This will be a huge scandal when GUWN drags Malami, Monfrini et al to court”, he added.
“Once the civil proceeding reveals the party that has defrauded us, that party will be shamed and prosecuted”.
Mr Uboh said, “Nigerians should not forget that part of my allegations against the EFCC during the 2015 senate hearing that led in part to Lamorde’s sack was that 95% of offshore seizures don’t make it back to Nigeria.
He said that GUWN which has been in forefront of fighting the hydra-headed monster in Nigeria called corruption, has the documents.
