Let me start this piece by stating that the arrest and ongoing investigation of Mrs Alison Diezani Madueke by the United Kingdom Crime Agency is a welcome development. I shall continue to support public officers to answer to any allegation against them irrespective of political affiliation, religion or ethnic group. This article however is meant to clear the air on who is to take credit before supporters of president Buhari and APC accord the glory to Buhari.

UK Crime Agency Should Take Credit For Alison's Arrest:
The arrest of Allison was done by the UK Crime Agency acting on their own investigation, which only God know when they started. The EFCC never demanded for Alison's arrest, it was 100% UK initiative.

Why It Is Wrong To Credit Buhari:
The arrest of Madueke is not the first to be done by the UK government. Recall on September 16, 2005 the UK Police arrested then Governor Diepreye Alamesiegha for money laundry www.news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/4253362.stm. The glory of that arrests that eventually led to his impeachment and imprisonment went to the UK and not Obasanjo's administration. The glory that went to Obasanjo was that it was his government that prosecuted him after he fled the UK- though he(Alams) was rather given a slap on the wrist. He still wanted in the UK

In May 2010, UAE authorities arrested James Ibori on the request of British Authorities after he had fled Nigeria due to being on the wanted list of the UK (2007) and Nigeria/EFCC (2010). Nevertheless, the credit went to the british authoritÍes and not President Goodluck Jonathan who had earlier ordered EFCC and Onovo-led police to arrest him. www.news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/africa/8680569.stm

Buhari Is Not Sincere With Anti-corruption
Since coming to power Buhari has been making probe rhetoric and has never shown the will. In fact, he has been drinking and eating with alleged corrupt officials like Amaechi, Atiku, Tinubu etc. Obasanjo in his letter once dared Atiku Abubakar to travel to the USA and see if he won't be arrested. Buhari is also yet to take action over the alleged corruption of Fashola as highlighted by Governor Ambode. In fact, the only case that's on the prosecution line is that of Saraki, which we all know was precipitated by political disagreement and not really because Buhari want to fight corruption. Buhari withdrew the EFCC's N2,8billion case against Sylva and even gifted him ticket for Bayelsa governorship election. In fact, Sylva was with Buhari during the Oct 1st celebration. Another is the case of Abubakar Audu, a right-hand man of Buhari since his ANPP days who despite his corruption case was gifted the ticket for Kogi governorship poll.

I make bold to state that the british would have arrested Diezani irrespective of who is in power. It is a shame that our so-called government cannot do things themselves but rely on the UK lead. Unfortunately, the properties and monies that will be seized will be added to the treasury of the Brits and their allies.

Finally, if Buhari want to fight corruption, he should start from home and we all shall support him. There are lots of ex-Govs, Senators and other public officials that has lots of indictment and cases to answer. He can't take the glory of another country! For now, he is yet to prove his hype.

The CCB prosecutes those who they have found to have committed an infraction on the Code of the Bureau. The cases you mentioned above have nothing to do with the CCB. If you have sufficient evidence to back your claim, I will advise you to proceed to the EFCC with such evidence.

"The arrest of Allison was done by the UK Crime Agency acting on their own investigation, which only God know when they started. The EFCC never demanded for Alison's arrest, it was 100% UK initiative."

You are very wrong because the Efcc actually demanded for her arrest. See evidence below:

[b]It was gathered that the Seizure Organised Crime Agency within the National Crimes Agency of the UK arrested Deziani and are probing the allegations against her.

It was further learnt that Deziani was picked up by operatives of the SOCA at the instance of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission which has been discretely probing her.

The PUNCH investigations revealed that the SOCA has a working agreement with the EFCC in the area of investigation of allegations of financial crimes and proceeds of such crimes.

A source said, “It is true that the former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Deziani has been arrested by the UK’s National Crimes Agency, not the Metropolitan Police.

“There is an agency within the National Crimes Agency called the Seizures Organised Crimes Agency. She was actually arrested by operatives of SOCA because the agency has a working agreement with the EFCC. We have been cooperating with SOCA on a number issues.

“I can tell you that Deziani is being quizzed over allegations of bribery and fraud by the UK police.”[/b]

In that case, where is PMB's credibility when he asks the UK to go after one person then sends the names of others to the senate in a ministerial list?

How many banks or financial institutions did Buhari build to shore up Nigeria's reserve in the midst of dwindling oil prices ? Most of you wailers do not even understand the gravity of cluelessness you exhibit when defending some criminals.

Adminisher:
So you are TonyeBarcanista.
You don't know jack. UK crime agency was activated by Buhari himself based on talks with the UK government. There is an international dragnet for all public treasury looters. You have to learn to be more matured in thinking. When Buhari was visiting the UK repeatedly, you guys said he was going for instructions or was being teleguided. It never occurred to you that the trap was being sprung. Also it was obvious to people who were better informed that intense work was being done within the Presidency to deal with the major looters but you people still said Baba Go Slow.
I would advise that you stop posting ignorantly and just look, listen and learn how the world catches corporate thieves and treasury looters . We have said it many times that you cannot steal to hide funds abroad without breaking money laundering laws of those countries.
Dieziani herself will most likely do plea bargain and rope I'm many people . Please stop posting , look, listen and learn

IbnSultaan:

President Muhammadu Buhari made a request to David Cameron and other leaders of allied States to help Nigeria arrest corrupt Nigeria officials and recover looted funds






Security Agents after months of planning along side the federal Government and international partners in Sweden,Us,UK and other countries Today started a sting joint international operation.











This is just the beginning

Why cant UK takes the credit during Jonathan?...Why Now?.....Why arresting her now?

Ioannes:
some people can never ever get sense. No matter how much you try they will never see reason. arguing with them is like pouring water in a basket.

whenever they see the name Buhari, their brains go into over-drive and shut down.

ayokellany:
Tonye kindly tell me what court you are the Judge or tribunal you chaired to declare Tinubu that was tried in a competent court of law and was honourably acquitted discharged a criminal ? I am yet to see any guilty verdict from any court on Atiku while you are only bound to have heart attack over Amaechi or how else can you explain how in your own wisdom chosen to pronounce him guilty without charge ? What is good for the PDP believed to be innocent is also good for the APC until they are pronounced guilty by a competent law court n not by your PDP sympathetic self.
