Lol. But bail was paid for that simple invitation.

chukwudi44:


If she has been indicted for fraud by the british authourities like you claimed,how come she is still a free woman? Try and make use of your brains for once!!

They can not hold an individual for more than 24hrs, her crime is not violent in nature and if her passport is seized she can not leave the country. She being ill as well which would persuade the judge to permit her bail

D way APC lie will earn dem guiness world record in lying. Tufiakwa!!!!!!!!!!! Keep calm Alison Maduake. Nothing do u.

Gullible Nigerians buying everything from Nigerians brown envelope journalists..

madcheddartips:

Diezani Alison-Madueke: Behind the 'reformer' of the Nigerian oil industry's arrest

Wednesday 7 October 2015


Diezani Alison-Madueke in 2012 AFP

Until last Friday, Diezani Alison-Madueke’s position as one of the most prominent women on the global stage had seemed assured. Boasting a Cambridge degree and a portfolio of senior government positions in her native Nigeria, she is also the first female president of the OPEC oil cartel.

Such is her influence that the British government earlier this year placed her top of a list of former recipients of the taxpayer-funded Chevening Scholarship for future leaders of foreign states whom it wanted to recognise for International Women’s Day. The roll call paid tribute to women who it said personified the slogan for the event - “make it happen”.

But Mrs Alison-Madueke’s prominence has become now tinged with a less welcome threat of notoriety after officers from Britain’s National Crime Agency (NCA) arrived at various homes in London six days ago and arrested the former minister in charge of Nigeria’s vast oil industry along with four others as part of a two-year investigation into suspected bribery and money laundering.

The reason for the arrests by the recently formed International Corruption Unit (ICU) was not disclosed by the NCA, which has also declined to name those who were brought in for questioning and then released on police bail. None of those arrested have been charged but it is understood investigations continue both within Britain and abroad.

In a separate move, the NCA yesterday confirmed to The Independent that it had secured the freezing of £27,000 in cash belonging to Mrs Alison-Madueke after it was seized in different currencies, including Nigerian naira. A further £5,000 was frozen from her mother, Beatrice Agama, who owns a property in London’s select St John’s Wood.

The only official indication of what lies behind the swoop - the first since the ICU was formed last year with a renewed remit to crackdown on corruption linked to developing countries - came instead from the Nigerian capital of Abuja, where officers from the country’s own anti-corruption force surrounded and searched one of the former minister’s homes.

Mrs Alison-Madueke, 54, part of a prominent Nigerian family and a former Shell executive, was appointed as Honourable Minister of Petroleum Resources in March 2010 by now former president Goodluck Jonathan. She held the post until Mr Jonathan lost Nigeria’s postponed presidential election in March to his ascetic rival Muhammadu Buhari, who had put the fight against corruption at the heart of his campaign.

It is hard to overstate the importance of oil - and therefore the post of oil minister - in Nigeria. The country is Africa’s largest oil producer and up to 80 per cent of its government’s £14.4bn revenue comes from the so-called black gold that many argue has been a curse as much as blessing to the continent’s poor.


Oil is big business in Nigeria - here reeks and vegetation are devastated as a result of spills from oil thieves and Shell operational failures in Niger Delta

Nigeria is therefore disproportionately exposed to fluctuations in the oil price. The fall of nearly 40 per cent on global markets left year prompted Mr Buhari to complain that the public coffers were “virtually empty” when he came to power.

Allegations of graft and corruption have long been rife within the Nigerian oil industry. But jaws dropped among even the most hardened observers in February 2014 when the governor of the central bank, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, stepped forward to allege that $20bn (£13bn) of oil receipts had gone missing from the state-owned oil company while Mrs Alison-Madueke was in office.

She vehemently denied any wrongdoing and Mr Sanusi was sacked from his post following the sudden emergence of allegations of financial misconduct against him.

Mr Buhari last week took to the airwaves to warn of imminent action against those alleged to have been involved in the theft of funds from the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC). The following day Mrs Alison-Madueke was arrested in London, though there is no evidence that the two events were connected.

The Nigerian authorities were nonetheless quick to acknowledge the arrest. In a statement, Mr Buhari’s office said: “The government is aware of the arrest and all the investigative agencies are working very closely with the British law enforcement.

“Nigerian authorities are saying for the first time that matters are being handled with seriousness and deep commitment. Nobody wants to give the impression that this government is frivolous and unserious.”

Few in Mrs Alison-Madueke’s circle are likely to be labouring under any such misapprehension.

She is believed to have been in Britain since at least May, reportedly to receive medical treatment, and has extensive family connections in the UK as well as the United States.

Her elder brother, Doye Agama, is a senior clergyman and archbishop in the Manchester-based Apostolic Pastoral Congress - a collective of Pentecostal churches. The archbishop told The Independent he had no contact with his sister.

According to one report, the mother-of-two had been contemplating the purchase of a property in One Hyde Park, the luxury central London apartment complex that has become an emblem of the influx of foreign capital into the capital’s property market.

The nature of the allegations against the former minister, who as a young woman studied architecture in London and later gained her MBA from Cambridge University, as yet remain unspecified.

She has remained silent following her arrest but has previously strongly denied allegations of wrongdoing laid against her. Political allies in Nigeria argue that Mr Buhari, whose aides have publicly warned he is on a crusade against “briefcase-carrying crooks”, is conducting a witch hunt against members of the previous government.


Nigerian President Muhammdu Buhari

One former minister said this week: “We see everything moving according to an agenda. They want to use Diezani to get at President Jonathan.”

For now, Mrs Alison-Madueke, who husband is the former head of the Nigerian navy, will remain in Britain, not least since it is understood her passport was confiscated as part of the NCA investigation.

In the meantime, there were early signs that some of her former friends are beginning to keep their distance.

On the website that promotes the Foreign Office-funded Chevening Scholarship, Mrs Alison-Madueke’s name was yesterday no longer on the list of alumni highlighted for International Women’s Day 2015.

A cached version of the page showed the OPEC president’s name had been on the list until at least the end of last month. The FCO has declined to comment on whether the removal was linked to her arrest.

I admire this lying propaganda of APC, imagine Nairalanders are now the investigators(EFCC, ICPC ETC), the prosecutor and media aides to the government, while the government itself remain on WE WILL...... WE WILL... WE WILL.

Pavore9:
She has the opportunity to clear her name and that of her family members in the court of law. If she has not stolen from the Nigerian state as alleged, she will someday be vindicated but if she has indeed looted funds, the days ahead would be hard and slippery.

THERE IS NO NAME TO CLEAR AS SHE WASNT EVEN TAKEN TO COURT IN THE FIRST PLACE

OnReflection:
The National Crime Agency thinks otherwise.

I CANT FIND HER NAME ANYWHERE HERE

Nigeria's ex-oil minister appears at UK police station

[img]http://www.tvcnews.tv/sites/default/files/styles/node-detail/public/field/image/diezani-allison-madueke_0_2.jpg[/img]

New details have emerged about Nigeria's former oil minister Diezani Alison-Madueke, appearing at the Charing Cross police station in the UK.

TVC can authoritatively report that Alison-Madueke actually went to the police station, but went through the back door, because of the huge media presence.

She was bailed on the same conditions as she was last Friday, but can't leave the United Kingdom and can't apply for new travel documents.

She was granted bail again because of her health and is now due to return to court on January the 21st next year.

Obviously people just want a scape Goat,this is a follow to a write up here on Nl where the authorities in the UK said they were not interested in charging her to court,this somehow confirms it. Those talking about court or no court which i had almost fallen for. You don't charge anybody to court because of an invitation. We would know the truth soon enough.. All these veil of lies and counter lies and defence lies will wear off soon and the truth would be clear...

Her passport was not seized!! Did you not read the report!!

Diezani is an intelligent and accomplished woman no doubt, but she has chosen to use her "skills" negatively.
It's time to face the music, shikena

Keep on consoling yourself, Pa Chuks.

You want to know what apparently triggered her current woes, despite the blanket of the blanket of immunity previously afforded to her by Jonathan's corrupt administration? Look no further than One Hyde Park, according Kelvin Mackenzie (Sun Columnist and former editor of the same newspaper)

One Hyde Park is a major residential and retail complex located in Knightsbridge, London.[2] The development includes three retail units (Rolex, McLaren Automotive and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank) totalling 385,000 sq ft (35,800 m2) and 86 residential properties marketed with prices starting at around £20 million.[3]

The building is owned by Project Grande (Guernsey) Limited, a joint venture between the Christian Candy-owned CPC Group and Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, former Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar.[4] It was designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners,[4] built by Laing O'Rourke[1] and was financed via a £1.15 billion development loan from Eurohypo AG.[5] Candy & Candy were the development managers and interior designers for the scheme."

Location[edit]
The building is located in the Knightsbridge area of central London, adjacent to Hyde Park and the Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park. The actual address is One Hyde Park: The Residences at Mandarin Oriental, 100 Knightsbridge, London, SW1X 7LJ.

History[edit]
Planning consent for the building was granted in June 2006.[6] Demolition of the previous building on the site took place between July and December 2006.[6] Construction work began in January 2007.[6] The superstructure of the building was completed in March 2009.[6] Fitting-out of the building began in April 2009.[6] In August 2010 a penthouse in the development was rumoured to be sold for £140 million, making it the most expensive residential property in Britain.[3][7] Also in that month it was announced that McLaren Automotive would be opening a car showroom in the building in early 2011.[8] However, a newspaper report at the time of the development's launch party in January 2011 indicated that according to Land Registry records the sale of only five properties had been completed - the 'recordbreaking' £140 million penthouse[9] being sold to the development's own financial backer Sheik Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani for £40.5 million in August 2010. One to an Indian family in mining and oil and an adjoining penthouse to One Hyde Park developer Christian Candy, who reportedly paid £31 million, "about £100 million less than the asking price".[10]

As of 2013, there was little evidence of people actually living in the complex.[11]

In September 2013 it was reported that a one-bedroom apartment in the complex worth £5.25m had been repossessed.[12]

Notable owners[edit]
Notable owners of One Hyde Park properties include:

Sheikh Hamad bin Jassim bin Jaber Al Thani, the former Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs of Qatar.[10][13]
Christian Candy, One Hyde Park developer.[10][13]
Rinat Akhmetov, Ukrainian business oligarch.[13][14]
Vladimir Kim, Kazakh businessman of Korean descent.[10][13]
Ray Grehan, an Irish property developer.[13]
Kirill Pisarev, a Russian real estate magnate.[13]
Yuri Zhukov, a Russian real estate magnate.[13]
