The Federal Government says it has made a recovery of one billion dollars since the inception of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration in May 2015 till date.
The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami noted that the recovered assets, deployed to various sectors of the economy particularly to address poverty alleviation, have made a huge impact on poverty levels and the nation's economy.
He declared that the Council has given approval for an anti-corruption strategy document to strengthen the anti-graft fight in the country.
The AGF expressed the Federal government’s worry over recurrent cases of budget padding, asserting that necessary measures would be explored to tackle it.
