At a press conference in Lagos on Friday, Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information, released a list of individuals who have allegedly looted from the country’s treasury. The list contained six names, including Uche Secondus, the Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

On Sunday, just two days after, he said that list was just a “tip of the iceberg” and proceeded to release an even longer one containing a total of 23 names.

Though some of the facts and figures in the initial list are questionable and have been challenged, here is the full list of all 29 alleged looters mentioned so far by the ruling party.

S/N NAME OF ‘LOOTER’ ALLEGATIONS
1. Ahmad Idris, former NSA Dasuki’s PA N1.5 billion
2. Air Marshal Adesola Amosun N21.4 billion. N2.8 billion recovered in cash. 28 properties and 3 vehicles also recovered.
3. Alex Badeh, former Chief of Defence Staff N8 billion, and EFCC recovered almost N4 billion in cash and property already.
4. Alison-Madueke, former Petroleum Resources Minister Diezani In just one of the cases the EFCC is investigating involving her, about N23 billion is alleged to have been embezzled. She is also involved in the Strategic Alliance Contracts of the NNPC, where the firms of Jide Omokore and Kola Aluko got oil blocks but never paid government taxes and royalty. About $3 billion was involved. The Federal Government is charging Omokore and Aluko and will use all legal instruments local and international to ensure justice.
5. Aliyu Usman Jawaz, close ally of former NSA Dasuki N882 million
6. Aliyu Usman, former NSA Dasuki’s aide N512 million
7. Babangida Aliyu, former Niger State Governor N1.6 billion – from NSA.
8. Bashir Yuguda, former Minister of State for Finance N1.5 billion. $829,800 recovered.

10. Dr. Raymond Dokpesi, Chairman of DAAR Communications On trial for allegedly taking N2.1 billion from the office of the former NSA.

scandal), a total of N126 billion, over $1.5 billion and 5.5 million British Pounds was embezzled through his office. A good number of these monies were simply shared to persons and companies without any formal contract awards.
