Looted cash stashed abroad finally coming home? The UK just inked a pivotal MoU via Jersey’s Attorney General Mark Temple with Nigeria in Dec 2025, unlocking over $9.5 million in corrupt proceeds—on top of $300m already repatriated for mega infrastructure!
British High Commission announced Friday from Abuja that Jersey, the Crown dependency near France, built this on prior pacts targeting shady funds from ex-officials, now earmarked for Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Second Niger Bridge, and wrapping the 375km Abuja-Kano Highway after court forfeiture in Jan 2024.
Nigeria’s AG Lateef Fagbemi, SAN, hailed the no-safe-haven collab, vowing transparent use; Temple praised civil forfeiture tools and Naija teamwork—highways ahead, literally!
