According to Reuters, the UK police on Tuesday August 22, 2023 said they suspected she had accepted bribes in return for awarding multi-million-pound oil and gas contracts.
The 63-year-old ex-minister served during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, from 2010 to 2015.
She was the president of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).
Speaking about the charges, Andy Kelly, Head of the National Crime Agency’s (NCA) International Corruption Unit, said, “We suspect Diezani Alison-Madueke abused her power in Nigeria and accepted financial rewards for awarding multi-million-pound contracts.
“These charges are a milestone in what has been a thorough and complex international investigation.”
The NCA said Alison-Madueke was accused of benefitting from at least £100,000 in cash, chauffeur-driven cars, flights on private jets, luxury holidays for her family, and the use of multiple London properties.
Reuters said charges against her also detail financial rewards including furniture, renovation work and staff for the properties, payment of private school fees, and gifts from high-end designer shops such as Cartier jewellery and Louis Vuitton goods.

ReplyDeleteInteresting times. Where Kola be?
Ahhh i love oyibo police, they don't give up. That was a painstaking investigation, I wish they will be investigating and prosecuting corrupt Nigerians so that the poor can really "breathe". They shouldn't spare anyone found guilty.
ReplyDeleteAsin when they decide to investigate you, you cannot escape. They are like a dog with a bone

ReplyDeleteThe legal process in the UK is a financial drain, the barrister will now be waiting for her £2000 per hour, sad where she will be spending money now.
ReplyDeleteIf the charge is for £100k, it is telling me they got sick and tired of the slow dance and decided to strike. This lady took the filth in petroleum to levels that would make Etete scream. They are determined that she has got to pay.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmmmm...............
