Nigeria is said to have lost at least $26 million to corrupt officials in the high-wire financial scandal, in which other key players from several countries have been sentenced to various jail terms and made to pay various sums of fines to their governments.
While those from foreign lands who gave the bribes have since been punished by their respective governments, the beneficiaries from Nigeria are yet to be fished out and sanctioned.
During an exclusive interview with Vanguard, Malami had dismissed as untenable, the notion that President Muhammadu Buhari was afraid of taking up the Halliburton and Siemens bribery cases because the key suspects were top military leaders.
Media reports yet to be dispelled by the administration had claimed that the government was afraid to confront the powerful beneficiaries of the scam which had landed other suspects in the United States, Germany and others in jail.
It's obvious that some caucus of individuals in Nigeria are gods, thereby making them untouchable and immune to indictment.
Yet they say; "We Are Fighting Corruption"...
The Real Nigeria...
