Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo has disclosed that FG will ensure people and organisations that made the list of high-profile debtors of Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria (AMCON) are dealt with mercilessly.
He revealed that they are responsible for the corporation not resolving its outstanding N5trillion debt and they have held Nigeria to ransom due to their terrible act.
Mr Yemi also shared that FG under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari will also start making sure those that owe AMCON the large amount of money are made to pay big time.
His words, “I think the time has come for us (Federal Government) to set some examples with some of these top debtors of AMCON, which I believe will set a good example and serve as deterrent to others.”
“I congratulate AMCON for the work done so far having recovered over N1trillion and counting both in cash and in assets. The work you do as a recovery agency is not something that is particularly easy or encouraging because we all know how Nigeria works. But we are committed to working more closely with your administration to ensure that these monies are recovered from AMCON obligors because it will help our economy and provide the government with more money to continue to improve on the development of infrastructure across the nation.”
