I am a realist who has done business in Nigeria. I fully expect the Nigerian police to knock on this guy's door and ask for their dash money. And if that is as much punishment as can be delivered then I've delivered it.

Beyond that though there is, it appears, an effort by Nigerian federal authorities to clean things up as some countries, notably the US and UK are withholding billions in aide money until they do. Optimism springs forth yet again. ;-)
