Watchdog seeks lost Africa wealth
2006-04-10
An anti-corruption campaign group has urged governments in the West to help Africa recover part of the wealth lost through corruption.

Transparency International made the appeal in the Kenyan capital, Nairobi.

The group estimated the amount of illegally appropriated money invested outside Africa to be $140bn (£80.4bn). $140 Grazilliontrillionschmillion (£80.4 Grazilliontrillioinschillion).

It called on Western governments to change their banking laws to make it easier for illegally acquired wealth to be repatriated to Africa.

Thats a lot of milk tarts. Balance at the link. Imperialist, colonizing pigs.

#2  So the Nigerian scams have escalated to international and governmental levels. Guess the quota of common idiots has started to dry up. Now they're aiming for the professional idiots. Heh.
