The Nigerian government has released more names of alleged looters during the Goodluck Jonathan administration.

On the new list are 23 names, including those of three People’s Democratic Party senators, and four retired senior military officers.

Government was widely criticised after it released a list earlier of six alleged looters, all members of the PDP.

The criticism came from the opposition party, and from Nigerians who thought there should have been more names.

In releasing the new list, information minister, Lai Mohammed said both lists are based on verifiable facts.

Second Batch of alleged looters and the amount allegedly embezzled

1. Former NSA Sambo Dasuki: Based on EFCC investigations and findings alone (this is beside the ongoing $2.1 billion military equipment scandal), a total of N126 billion, over $1.5 billion and 5.5 million British Pounds was embezzled through his office.

2. Former Petroleum Resources Minister Diezani Alison-Madueke: In just one of the cases the EFCC is investigating involving her, about N23 billion is alleged to have been embezzled.
