After calling Nigeria a fantastically corrupt nation, British prime minister, David Cameron held a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari in London.
The Nigerian president had initially fired back at the British PM over his comments about Nigeria, saying that he would rather the looted funds in the country were returned than an apology for those remarks about the west African giants.
In a series of pictures taken during the meeting with the British PM and secretary of state, John Kerry, on Thursday, May 12, President Buhari seemed to be explaining Nigeria’s challenges but the pair continued to stare at him in bewilderment.

Meanwhile, President Buhari in London on Thursday, disclosed that he has been re-invigorated to ensure corruption in Nigeria is curtailed.
His new stand follows Prime Minister David Cameron’s allegation that Nigeria is ‘fantastically corrupt’.
Though Buhari replied him on Wednesday demanding that all looted funds stashed away in the United Kingdom must be repatriated to Nigeria, he has now said Nigeria will soon begin the full implementation of the principles of the ‘open contracting data standard’.
