President Bola Tinubu has applauded the judgment delivered by Judge Robin Knowles of the Business and Property Court in London, awarding a landmark victory to the Federal Government of Nigeria over a firm known as Process & Industry Development (P&ID) Limited.
In a statement by the president’s Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale, said the landmark judgment proves conclusively that Nigeria will no longer be held hostage by economic conspiracies between private firms and solitarily corrupt officials who conspire to extort and indebt the very nations they swear to defend and protect.
He stated that the victory was not for Nigeria alone but the continent and for the developing world at large, which has for too long been on the receiving end of unjust economic malpractice and overt exploitation.
The president also lauded the federal Ministry of Justice and the Office of the Attorney-General in the process of defending Nigeria’s interest in the case.
