President Muhammadu Buhari has concluded
plans to recover all government property, still in possession of government
officials, who served under former President Goodluck Jonathan.
The Federal Government’s assets including vehicles,
buildings, generator sets and others were said to still be in the possession of
the former government officials, weeks after they had left office.
Displeased by the development, Buhari was said to have
set up a committee made up of civil servants and security agencies; to identify
and recover the unreturned public assets from the former political appointees.
The development is in continuation of ongoing efforts
of the President to reclaim Nigeria’s stolen resources.
The Senior Special Assistant to the President on Media
and Publicity, Mallam Garba Shehu, confirmed the development.
The presidential spokesman however, did
not disclose the identities of former government officials, said to be still in
possession of government property, but he expressed the conviction that the
committee set up by the President, would recover all the government assets.
