BY SAHARAREPORTERS, NEW YORK
Former Nigerian Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani
Alison-Madueke today in London appeared in court with her mother, Beatrice
Agama, and one Melanie Spencer.
Mrs. Alison-Madueke was arrested last week by the UK
National Crime Agency over allegations that she engaged in bribery and money
laundering. Earlier today, SaharaReporters published a detailed report about
how the former minister looted and laundered funds in the United Kingdom using
a network of relatives, co-workers and shady businessmen. Mrs. Madueke’s case
came to the attention of law enforcement agents in the UK when she used her
mother to purchase a posh apartment in Westminster.
Although it is confirmed that Mrs. Alison-Madueke will be
charged alongside her mother and possibly an aide, SaharaReporters has been
unable to confirm the identity of the other two persons who were arrested with
the former minister.
