We’ll release another looters’ list soon – FG

The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, on Sunday said the Federal Government would ‘very soon’ release another list of looters.

He stated that no intimidation from any quarter would debar the Federal Government from releasing the list.

He spoke with journalists in Ilorin, the Kwara State capital.

Mohammed said,  “We are not going to ask anybody not to go to court, but what we are telling them is that they should re-examine themselves because when the government came out with its list, it was confident of the evidence it had.

“No government worth its salt would be challenged and would not come out to prove that what it is saying is correct.

“When it comes to evidence it’s for the courts to decide, but we want to make it clear that no amount of intimidation from any side would prevent the Federal Government from releasing the next batch of looters’ list and what you have seen so far is the tip of the iceberg. You will see that many people that Nigerians did not suspect partook in the national looting.”

“Interestingly, we have people saying that they are going to court, you see courts are for the accused person and the accuser, courts are for the rich and the poor, courts are for the government and the governed. So, anybody that says that he’s going to court, that shouldn’t frighten anybody.”
