Mohammed disclosed this while featuring on the First Year, a Channels Television Programme to mark the Buhari’s administration’s first year in office.
Recall that the President had promised to publish the identity of looters during his democracy day speech.
He, however, reneged on the promise during his address yesterday and rather gave the responsibility to the Ministry of Information and Culture.
Reacting to the development, Mohammed said, “Yes, he initially said so (that he’ll give specific details about recovered loot), but he was advised against doing so for legal reasons.
“Of course, for obvious legal reasons. The president said he was going to release the amount recovered and where the recovered assets are.
“Yes he initially said so (naming looters), but he was advised against doing so for legal reasons. Of course, he has a right to reverse himself on that.”
The Minister further assured that the list will soon be out.
“We will get the list, but not today, but before the end of the week. But I must say, not with the names,” he said.
