Madam Diezeani Appears Before London Police for Corruption

Embattled former Nigerian Petroleum Resources Minister, Diezeani Alison-Madueke on Thursday afternoon appeared at a London Police Station.

In a report monitored on TVC, Alison-Madueke was at the Charing Cross Police Station, London to honour the invitation by the authorities. She was granted bail on the same condition given earlier and asked to return to the station on 21 June. She is not allowed to leave the UK.

Last October, the former minister, who was one of the powerful officials of the Goodluck Jonathan era, was said to have been arrested by the UK National Crimes Agency, alongside four other people.

The charges against her were looting and money laundering in the United Kingdom using a network of relatives and businessmen. All cases against her are expected to commence in June, 2016.
