Nigerians get mind sef. Imagine this kain prayer. The grapevine gist is that former petroleum minister Diezani Allison Madueke is on the run because of obvious reasons bother majorly on the missing $20Billion and other NNPC shady dealing running into billions of dollars.
Her media people released a statement few days ago suggesting that Madam Diezani is sick and hospitalized. However sources who spoke exclusively to lailasblog.com claim that Madam Diezani was spotted hale and hearty playing host late last night to some guests at her Chertsey Street home.
It will be recalled Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State told reporters at the State House in Abuja that US officials informed Mr. Buhari that a Nigerian minister under President Jonathan stole as much as $6 billion from the Nigerian treasury. Even though Mr. Oshiomhole did not disclose the name of the minister involved.
Mr. Oshiomhole said that US officials, who were astonished by the size of looting that took place under Mr. Jonathan’s administration, declared that the funds stolen by one minister were staggering even for an economy as big as that of the United States.
Sahara reporters revealed that Ms. Alison-Madueke used cohorts she handpicked to systematically deprive Nigerians of billions of dollars of oil revenues. Among the big players in her web of oil scams are Kogi-born businessman, Jide Omokore, Ben Peters, Igho Salome, and Kola Aluko. The mega scams the former minister pulled off with her trusted hands involved opulent acquisition of at least four private jets, a yacht, real estate in various world locations, including New York, Dubai, and London, and the transfer of huge sums to bank accounts operated by shadowy companies in Switzerland and several tax havens.
Ms. Alison-Madueke famously fell out with Mr. Aluko over the latter’s reported romantic involvement with ex-super model Naomi Campbell. It is believed that Mr. Aluko absconded with more than $1 billion that was in his custody as a result of shady transactions engineered and approved by the former Petroleum Minister.
