UK Govt In Hot Mess Over Controversial Tompolo Deal by maupe: 7:47am On May 15, 2017
Newly obtained documents also
reveal the role U.K. government
played in approving the export
license for the deal with a former
Nigerian warlord.
A British firm is under investigation
by the U.K., U.S., Nigeria and Norway
for its role in bribing a Norwegian
official and a former Nigerian warlord
in a multi-million-pound defense deal
of seven decommissioned naval vessels. The case's first court verdict
based on the allegations will be
announced Tuesday in Oslo. CAS-Global Ltd. bought
a hand naval vessel —
the KNM Horten — via
the U.K. and exported it
to a Nigerian company
controlled by a former Nigerian warlord.
According to Corruption
Watch, an anti-bribery
group that is set to release a report on the issue on
Monday, the newly obtained
documents also reveal the role U.K.
government played in approving the
export license for the deal. Not much is known about Cas-Global’s
business. The Companies House in the
U.K. had declared last month that it
intended to dissolve the firm that
was set up in 2008 as it seemed to be
inactive. Cas-Global has already been the subject of an investigation since
2014 by the City of London police’s
specialist anti-corruption unit. The City of London police told the
Guardian that its detectives “continue
to actively investigate the suspected
bribery of a Norwegian public official
in connection with the purchase of
ex-naval vessels from 2012 onwards. The joint investigation with the
Norwegian authorities has led to the
arrest of four men.” The city of
London police is also "liaising with
the American and Nigerian authorities
in respect of inquiries connected to financial transfers."

Britain is never straight forward to all its dealings with Nigeria.
In-fact the white are using Africans as a tasting ground.
