Muhammadu Buhari and John Kerry at the Anti-corruption Summit in London. The United States government has said that it is working to return about $350 million in its country, stolen from Nigeria by generals.

According to PUNCH, the US Secretary of State, John Kerry disclosed this during the Anti-corruption Summit Plenary at Lancaster House London, United Kingdom.

He said:

“ I read that tens of billions of dollars were stolen from President Buhari’s country by generals and put into other nations, some of it in our country; we are now working to restore $350 million back, and there’s more to be restored to the people.

And every one of those million dollars that comes back to a country is the opportunity to provide a desk and a chair and school and shelter and health care and meet the needs of nations. That is why we organise ourselves in the world around rule of law and in an effort to try to provide for our citizens.
