The northern elder statesman has said that the fear of being investigated by President Muhammadu Buhari is the real reason behind the sudden ‘illness’ of the former minister.
He wondered why Alison-Madueke never took ill during her tenure as minister but suddenly became seriously ill after the failure of ex-president Goodluck Jonathan during the 2015 polls and the firm resolve of his successor to probe and return all looted funds.
Musa said: “How come she suddenly took ill when Buhari took over as president? She is trying to run away from justice but I strongly believe that she can’t evade it. Justice will definitely catch up with her, because right now, countries like the United States and the United Kingdom have promised the government of Nigeria that they will help us recover our stolen money stashed in their country”.
The former governor showed optimism that there is no way for Alison-Madueke to escape the law if found guilty, with the assurance given by the US, UK and other countries to assist Nigeria in recovering her stolen money.
“If they are honest and sincere about doing that, it means it will make it easy for the federal government to get her back into the country to face justice”.
“They can’t say they will help Nigeria to recover stolen money but at the same time they will habour the suspects in their country or refuse to assist the federal government in bringing them to Nigeria to face justice,” he noted.
