The President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Monica Dongban-memsen, has warned that economic crimes, including the looting of the country’s resources besides depriving the people of opportunities weakens public confidence.

Dongban-memsen sounded out the warning at the just concluded 43rd Cambridge International Symposium on Economic Crime, which held at the University of Cambridge.

Delivering the vote of thanks at the event which featured prominently Nigeria’s judiciary, law enforcement, and financial regulators, the Court of Appeal President stated that illicit wealth must not be allowed to fund further crime, influence, or impunity.
