U.S., U.K. act quickly at behest of Muhammadu Buhari, who took office in May on a pledge to stamp out corruption; ex-oil minister detained in London
London police this month briefly detained Nigeria’s former oil minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
Following a summer meeting in Washington between British and American investigators, London police on Oct. 2 raided a luxurious home near Regent’s Park. There they briefly detainedDieziani Alison-Madueke, Nigeria’s oil minister from 2010 to 2015.
Hours later, her neighbors in Nigeria watched as scores of cops searched her house:
One of Africa’s most prominent politicians, Mrs. Alison-Madueke and her associates are suspected of bribery, corruption and laundering money through British and U.S. banks. She has previously denied those allegations and police haven’t charged her with anything.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
