The World Bank has support move by President-elect, Maj. Gen. Mohammadu Buhari(retd.), to probe the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation over allegations of missing funds.

World Bank’s Chief Economist for Africa, Mr. Francisco Ferreira while answering questions from journalists, said looking into financial record of the country, especially into allegation of corruption at the NNPC, would check impunity and build public institutions in the future.

Speaking during a video conferencing from Washington to journalists from across Africa on the release of the bank’s analysis of issues shaping Africa titled ‘Africa’s Pulse’, Ferreira said: “One norm that has to change is the norm of impunity. I am from Brazil myself. So, I am also used to a country where people could be corrupt and escape justice. That keeps the people to keep doing it.

“So the current stand of the government-elect to look into what happened in the past hopefully will have consequences for the future. And those consequences will be that institutions will be stronger; norms will be cleaner and people will not have to steal millions of dollars from Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation.

“People have alleged in the past that there had been major corruption scandals there. If that stops, then that will have very high returns in terms of the money staying around to be spent on education, health, roads and power that the poor people in Nigeria across the country need.

“So my sense is that it will be good to promote cleanliness in politics.”
