By Paulinus Aidoghie The United Kingdom has said that it has not given up on its efforts to extradite former Bayelsa State governor, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, back to Britain to face trial, the Sun Newspaper is reporting today. The UK said it had already contacted the Federal Government requesting Mr. Alamieyeseigha’s extradition, and was awaiting a response to the request. The British High Commissioner to Nigeria, Andrew Pocock, told the paper in an exclusive interview that the former governor, who recently got state pardon from his criminal conviction in Nigeria, still has an outstanding case of money laundering to answer to in the UK and that the UK government will not give up until Mr. Alamieyeseigha is brought to justice. Mr. Alamieyeseigha, then a serving governor, made a dramatic escape from the custody of the British authorities when he fled back to Nigeria from detention in September 2005. He would later be convicted on similar money laundering charges on July 26, 2007 in Nigeria after he was impeached as governor. Although his recent state pardon by President Goodluck Jonathan hit the UK authorities as a rude shock, Mr. Pocock dismissed insinuations that London was planning to sanction Nigeria over the matter. According to him, “that is not the way we do things”. The High Commissioner also revealed that UK had earlier requested for Alamieyeseigha’s extradition, but did not get any response. Mr. Pocock said the UK had asked the Attorney General and Minister for Justice for Alamieyeseigha’s extradition and was still awaiting his position on the issue when President Goodluck Jonathan all of a sudden announced he has been extricated of all wrong doing via the state clemency. The move to pardon him even when the application for his extradition to Britain was still pending was like daring the applying nation that feels strongly that Alamieyeseigha has a case to answer in their country. According to Mr. Pocock, “The former governor skipped bail in the UK on a charge of money laundering and returned to Nigeria. So, he has an outstanding charge in the UK, which is there for him to answer. “We have already discussed it and the Nigerian government knows our views. But we would like to see him return and answer charge in the UK.” On UK’s past and present efforts to see that Alamieyeseigha is extradited to the UK, Mr. Pocock said: “Yes. I think we asked in the past. I am very sure we asked in the past. But I am not sure we got a formal response. So, we are still waiting for a formal response from the Nigerian government. “We have asked the Attorney General. He will have to tell us what his position is on extradition. I haven’t had a reply yet, but we still wait for it,” the British envoy added.

brilliant5: Sir, dont turn this to another tribal war, from the write up, you can read that a request was made for Alam extradition during GEJ administration, but he did not respond to it. Open your brain sir, Let me remind you again, USA also request for Kashamu extradition at that time, fortunately he was a staunch supporter of GEJ and PDP. presidency did not reply as well. Who is to blame? before you start your gibberish and again, kashamu is playing a fast one, by running to different court of law buying judges up and down. With PMB, at the head now, if any request for kashamu extradition come from USA again, he will go there. meanwhile Alam should go and have his date in UK. 1 Like |

brilliant5:What are we talking about here, Saraki is facing the false assets declaration charge and the declaration was made in 2003 and mind you Saraki is in PDP till 2012 if am right.... Mind you Saraki is the begining of his own problem You have such a big skeleton in your cupboard and still fighting with those that know your secret better... Mind you none of the people in Govt know about Saraki declaration in 2003 cos then they are in opposition but i believe immediately Saraki insulted the VP that was where his problem started from.... Remember Osinbajo is the commisioner of Lagos when Saraki bought all what he declare in his assets without having them... Also El Rufai is the FCT minister and all the VP need to do is request for the assets declaration of Saraki in 2003 from the CCB and they will surely give it to him and on comparing them with what Saraki bought under his watch as the Commissioner for justice that is enough to nail Saraki. brilliant5:Well like i said earlier, PMB said all his ministers will be asked to declare their assets and that where the problem with start for some past public office holder, Let me ask you this, Akpabio, Jonah Jang, Imoke, Gbenga Daniel, Theordore Orji etc are they not past Governors of different states and are they not in the opposition? So now tell me why they are still walking free? You are shouting Ameachi Ameachi how about how about those i mentioned up there.... When the time comes all of them will face their problem. brilliant5:DSP Case is a diffrent case here, He is facing a money laundering charge in the United Kingdom and he jump bail and run to Nigeria disguise like a woman, He was also given state pardon by the then president... that's a shame to our Government.. DSP, Kashamu will be use as a bait to get all looters extradited back to Nigeria for trial. |

THAT. big man then tells the boy *take this gun and be my political thug * the boy will gladly accept believing as far as this big man got my back NO SHAKIING . we all know the kashamu story and the matter is still on so chill . but as for alams if he gets extradited the REAL /PROGRESSIVE Minded south south indigenes will celebrate! the Tribalist will scream northerners attacking south and the wailing wailers will shout witch hunting |
