President-Elect Muhammadu Buhari on Sunday said his
administration would probe the claim by a former Governor of the
Central Bank of Nigeria and now the Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi II, that the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation failed to remit $20bn oil money to the federation
account.
Buhari gave the hint while receiving a delegation of the All
Progressives Congress elected officials and supporters from Adamawa State at
his campaign office in Abuja.The President-elect, who spoke in Hausa expressed surprise
that instead of probing the allegations by the former CBN governor, the
Goodluck Jonathan-led Peoples Democratic Party administration chose to fire
him.He stated that since Sanusi’s claim was documented, his
administration would take a look at it after the May 29 handover date.Buhari said, “On the issue of corruption, I heard that some
people have started returning money. I will not believe it until I see for
myself.
