Musdapher cited the recent trial of former Governor James Ibori in the UK and said his investigation alone cost the British taxpayers £14 million (about N3.6billion).
He stated this at his Valedictory Court Session organized to mark his retirement from the bench after 33 years career as a judge.
He said such huge expenses to investigate crime might be part of the reasons for the slow pace of investigation and prosecution of such cases in Nigeria.
Besides, he lamented that the number of charges filed by anti corruption agencies make it cumbersome to prosecute.
The former Justice who described himself as fulfilled man, was called to the Nigerian Bar as a lawyer in 1968.
