The big spender caught on the other side of former president Goodluck Jonathan on the tail end of his administration over guarded oil deals was said to have initially pleaded to refund $1billion out of the $3bilion traced to him.

But authorities allegedly refused.

And an agreement to pay back $2b was later agreed on.

Further digs by societynowng.com have it that despite the huge repayment involved and headache of committing a chunk of his wealthy to meeting schedule – the troubled money man as a consolation, threats of prosecution is virtually of his horizon…for now.
