The anti-graft agency, EFCC, has denied dropping money laundering charges against a former petroleum minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, and her co-accused.

The EFCC in 2018 filed the charges against Mrs Alison-Madueke and others, including Dauda Lawal, a former executive director of First Bank.

They were accused of laundering about $153 million public funds in the build up to the 2015 presidential election.

Apart from this trial, Mrs Alison-Madueke has also been indicted in several other corruption cases and has forfeited properties worth billions of naira to the Nigerian government.

She is, however, yet to formally face trial as she is believed to be in the UK where she is also being investigated for money laundering.
