    According to Ms. Laing, the money will be first tranche of such planned returns.

    She explained that what is currently being returned were retrieved from friends and members of Ibori’s family.

    According to her, Ibori’s case is complicated, hence the United Kingdom authorities were still working on the total actual amount involved in the case.

    Laing spoke at the signing ceremony of Memorandum of Understanding, MOU, held in Abuja between Nigeria and UK.

    She gave the assurance on more of such recoveries from the Ibori’s case and said the looted fund would be returned to Nigeria in due course.
