[Leadership]Outgoing Swiss ambassador to Nigeria Mr Andreas Baum recently confirmed that his home country had returned about $500million (N80billion) of "Abacha loot" to Nigeria. The loot was returned while his predecessor was still in Nigeria, he said. Since Mr Baum was posted to Nigeria in 2008, it means the money entered the nation's coffers much earlier.
