Nigeria’s former Petroleum Minister, Diezani
Alison-Madueke, who was arrested in London and granted bail on Friday may be
returning to the London Magistrate Court on Monday, October 5. She was arrested by the National
Crime Agency along with four other people and is being investigated for alleged
bribery, corruption and money laundering.
She denied any wrong doing when accused by the then Central Bank Governor, Sanusi
Lamido Sanusi, who is now the Emir of Kano of alleged misappropriation of $20
billion oil money. Mrs.
Alison-Madueke was Petroleum Minister between 2010 and 2015. Recently, President Muhammadu Buhari
vowed to trace and recover “mind boggling” sums that have been stolen from the
oil sector. He also promised to
prosecute those behind the theft.
