Dr. Azmi Shuaibi, Board of Directors Anti-Corruption consultant, stated that there was suspicion of corruption or bribery last year in the light of Nigeria's last minute abstention and its abstention in the security council vote on a project aimed to end the Israeli occupation, although Nigeria has pledged to the Palestinian Authority to support the resolution of the project, Moreover, its vote was supposed to be in the Security council – the ninth voice guaranteeing the majority and acceptance of the draft vote later.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry declared in the same statement that Israel has already decided to deduct 6 million dollars of these funds after the UN Security Council voting in the end of last year on resolution 2334 rejecting Israeli settlement.
