Us Revokes Visas Of Nigerian Officials by Mamajama(m): 3:08pm On Jul 09, 2010 |
President Barack Obama has authorized the State Department to revoke the visas of more former government officials and their close relatives over their role in the controversy that surrounded the health of former President Umaru Yar’Adua and the looting of the nation’s treasury. This is a good development for Nigeria. http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/news/national/2010/july/09/national-02-09-2010-002.htm Already, the administration last week revoked the visa of former Justice Minister, Michael Aondoakaa, over his role in the power play during Mr. Yar’Adua’s medical trip to Saudi Arabia. |

Washington had also beamed its searchlight on several top Nigerian officials who were named in the Halliburton bribery scandal preparatory to bringing charges. Already, the search had also been expanded to include some officials who served under former president Olusegun Obasanjo and those said to have benefited from several deals within the past 20 years. I love it when the law works! |
