Nigeria - Following his defeat at the presidential polls to Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, President Goodluck Jonathan according to a Punch report has demanded a refund of unused or embezzled campaign funds from campaign managers, ministers and others. He also wants an audit, the report says.

Excerpt:

Following the defeat suffered by President Goodluck Jonathan and his party, the Peoples Democratic Party, during the March 28 and April 11 elections, the President has asked the party and government officials who handled campaign funds to refund monies not spent, or those not judiciously expended,SUNDAY PUNCH can authoritatively report.

Jonathan, credible sources said, has also set up a committee of five to get those with the funds to return them.

Sources within the party and government told our correspondents that President Jonathan was disturbed that despite giving campaign coordinators, ministers, special advisers, close aides and friends, support groups and traditional rulers over N2trn in cash, most of them could not deliver their polling booths and local governments.
