The Assets Management Corporation of Nigeria, AMCON, Tuesday, announced the list of Nigerian heavyweight debtors on the watch list of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
Also on Tuesday, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo set up a task force with the mandate to devise a strategy to recover the N5 trillion owed AMCON.
The agencies tasked to go after the debtors are Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit (NFIU), the Independent Corrupt Practices Commission (ICPC) and the ministry of justice.
At the meeting that held at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Muiz Banire, AMCON’s chairman, said the top 20 debtors owe 67% of the N5 trillion debt.
