Change Has Truly Come, By Okoi Obono-Obla

When a friend, who is a senior legal practitioner told me yesterday, how his bank in London gave him a query to explain how he came by £1600 he has in his account after his wife on a trip to London had withdrawn £800 from the account.

So those members of the thieving, corrupt and morally bankrupt wing of the political and business elite that have siphoned money from the country to the Kingdom; United States of America and other off shores countriesare in serious trouble.

These countries have undoubtedly introduced stringent money laundering policies and regulations in respect of lodgments or deposits kept in their banks by thieving politicians, civil servants and business people from Nigeria since the assumption of power of President Muhammadu Buhari about two months ago.

Recall, that during the historic visit of President Buhari to the United States of America, the repatriation of billions of dollars stolen from the country by corrupt politicians, civil servants and business and stashed in the United States and other western countries was one of the highlights of the discussion, President Buhari had with President Barack Obama of the United States.

Consequently, President Obama directed the Federal Bureau of Investigation to combed banks and other financial institutions in the United States in order to traced and trapped money stolen from Nigeria and kept there for eventual repatriation back to Nigeria!

President Buhari is surely, slowly but determinedly and steady working to return the country back to its glorious past!

Yesterday the Naira made a dramatic and unprecedented appreciation to the dollar to the extent that banks started rejecting deposits from customers in foreign currencies especially the dollar.

Meanwhile those in the country who have stolen from the government and hidden tones of dollars stand the risk of losing the money as a result of the appreciation of the naira against the dollar.

Change has truly come to our country. To the Almighty God be the glory.
