Why I planned to pay firm N774 billion to recover money from oil companies — Malami

In a statement on Saturday, Mr Malami defended his controversial decision that has angered many Nigerians.

On Friday, Mr Malami explained the function of his office in facilitating the payment of five per cent to the recovery agent, through the Ministry of Finance. “Write a letter to the Federal Ministry of Finance, forward the engagement letter, forward the evidence of lodgement of the amount and direct it to pay the recovery fee,” the AGF said in a follow up communication with PREMIUM Times, Friday evening.Prior to the signing of the Deep Offshore and Inland Basin production sharing contract Act by President Buhari on November 4, Mr Malami said he had moved to recover oil revenues due to Nigeria from international oil companies.

President Muhammadu Buhari had expressed surprise over the contract with Trobell Limited and directed the minister to suspend the contract. He described the agreed commission as excessive.

Read the whole story guys. If stand the chance to loose $62Billion instead. 5% of the recovery amount is not too much. But i dont want a clause that will hold nigeria responsible to the recovery agent if they cant get the money from the oil companies. P&ID

Malami, Ole.
