government has denied allegations that it aids corruption in Nigeria, saying it
is committed to repatriating Nigeria’s looted funds kept in the country.

positions has tended more to be from the North. In a sense, the President has
made the office of the president, the face of his administration, a profoundly
regional one. The most disturbing to most people was the quick overturning of
the appointment of Mr. Nwabueze C. Obi, as the acting MD of the National
Maritime and Safety Agency, NIMASA, replaced with Mr. Haruna Jauro in quick
order on the orders of the president.
