World Bank Must Apologize To Nigerians Or Face Lawsuit – Mahdi Shehu Warns.
A public commentator, Mahdi Shehu, has urged the World Bank to issue an apology to Nigerians over alleged delays in the approval and release of loans, warning that failure to do so could result in legal action.....KINDLY READ THE FULL STORY HERE▶
Shehu made the remark on Sunday in a post on X, responding to reports that the Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration had expressed concern over difficulties in accessing already approved loans.
He argued that Nigeria has remained a consistent borrower while the World Bank continues to act as a willing lender, describing the situation as troubling.
“Nigeria is a serial willing borrower and the World Bank a serial loan giver,” he stated.
Shehu further suggested that the delay in disbursing funds appears questionable, alleging it could be a calculated move to undermine the country’s economic stability and recovery.
“Delay in disbursing approved loans appears to be a deliberate sabotage against a stabilized and fully recovered economy and polity,” he said.
He also ridiculed the situation, noting that it was unusual for a country eager to borrow to be issuing warnings to a lender.
“A situation where an ever willing loan seeker is warning an ever willing loan giver must be recorded by the Guinness Book of Records,” he added.
Shehu went on to demand an apology from the World Bank, cautioning that refusal could lead to a class action suit at the International Court of Justice.
“The World Bank must apologize to all Nigerians for the delay which will affect our comfort level, otherwise we will file a class action at the World Court of Justice,” he said.
He stressed that once legal action is initiated, there would be no room for an out-of-court settlement.
“And the moment we file against them, there will be no room for out-of-court settlement,” he added.
He also noted that the legal team would be led by the Attorney General, Chief Lateef Olasunkanmi Fagbemi, SAN, describing him as competent and patriotic.
