FOR Switzerland, there is no more of Nigeria’s stolen money to be repatriated beyond the $700 million returned between 2005 and 2009.
Switzerland maintained Monday that it expected concrete evidence of the existence of such illegal money in Swiss vaults instead of the practice where people perpetually allude to them as if the Swiss authorities were protecting such funds in violation of financial collaboration with Nigeria.
At a special briefing in Abuja on the eve of a seminar on money laundering and the financing of terrorism, the Swiss Ambassador to Nigeria, Hans-Rudolf Hodel, said: “If you have new facts (on the stolen funds of Gen. Sani Abacha or his son), bring them up, we are not content with this general feeling of ‘I am sure there is still some money left in there...’ That case has been closed.”
