PoliticsDiezani Lands In Fresh Trouble Amid Cameron’s Comment About Nigeria by Wadasco(op): 1:25pm On May 11, 2016
As Nigeria’s immediate past minister of petroleum,
Diezani Alison-Madueke, continues with her battle to
wade off the series of corruption allegations against her,
the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project
(SERAP) has demanded that she be repatriated from the
United Kingdom (UK) to defend herself.
The demand for her repatriation comes ahead of the
international anti-corruption summit in the UK for which
Nigeria’s President Muhammadu Buhari is a
participant.
Diezani Alison-Madueke, former minister of petroleum
Some allies of Alison-Madueke are currently answering
questions relating to their roles in the huge financial
mismanagement and corruption that rocked the
government of Dr Goodluck Jonathan.
SERAP believes that the charges she is currently facing
in UK court do not sufficiently capture the gravity of her
alleged crimes and the increasing allegations of
corruption against her in Nigeria
The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) had recently
announced it was commencing special investigation
into the how some banks got involved in the N23 billion
allegedly shared to officials of the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC), the Nigerian electoral
umpire, by officials of Jonathan’s government during
the 2015 general elections.
Executive director of SERAP, Adetokunbo Mumuni, said
on behalf of the rights group: “The anti-corruption summit
in London provides an important opportunity for the UK
government to support the ongoing fight against corruption
in Nigeria, and to send a powerful message that the UK will
not provide sanctuary or condone impunity for corrupt
public officials.
“As a state party to the UN convention against corruption,
the UK government can use the convention as a basis for
the extradition of Alison-Madueke back to Nigeria.
“We urge the Nigerian authorities to without delay submit a
request to the UK authorities for the extradition of Mrs
Alison-Madueke, explicitly making the point that Nigeria will
guarantee her a due process-trial.
“If the UK refuses the extradition request, Nigeria should
consider submitting the matter for arbitration and if this
cannot resolve the case, refer it to the International Court of
Justice for adjudication. The Nigerian authorities should
also consider filing a civil action against Mrs Alison-
Madueke in the UK court.
“By sending Mrs Alison-Madueke back to her country, the
UK will be sending a message that high-level official
corruption will not go unpunished no matter where the
suspected perpetrator hides and thus contribute to the fight
against impunity for grand corruption.
“The UK indeed has an obligation to extradite Mrs Alison-
Madueke through international cooperation and
collaboration in good faith with Nigeria.
“We believe that effective prosecution in Nigeria is feasible
and this will bring justice closer to Nigerians who are direct
victims of corruption.
“Extraditing Mrs Alison-Madueke back to Nigeria is equally
important for allowing easier access to witnesses, evidence,
victims of corruption; creating a deep connection between
Nigerians and the impact of the trial; and empowering
victims of corruption.”

The statement continues: “SERAP believes that there is
probable cause that Mrs Alison-Madueke participated in the
extraditable acts involving some banks in Nigeria, whether
directly or indirectly. The allegations of corruption against
her are strong enough for Prime Minister David Cameron to
facilitate an extradition proceeding.
“The UK shouldn’t be a country of refuge for corrupt
officials if it is to avoid a miscarriage of justice in high-level
corruption cases. But if Mrs Alison-Madueke is not
extradited, the UK will have a responsibility to amend her
charges to include the fresh allegations against her and to
try her on the merits under the UK laws as if she had
committed the crimes there.”
Recently, the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission (EFCC) reportedly released the chief
executive officers of two Nigerian banks.
According to Sahara Reporters, the men regained
freedom after they returned billions of naira they had
illicitly acquired from political slush funds during the
administration of former president, Goodluck Jonathan.
The EFCC sources revealed that Yemi Adeola, the
Sterling Bank’s CEO, was released on Friday, May 6,
after he deposited a payment of N5 billion.
According to one of the sources, the money returned by
Adeola was in partial restitution for a transaction of $88
million he received from Diezani Alison-Madueke, a
former minister of petroleum resources.

PoliticsCameron Explains His Comment About Corruption In Nigeria by Wadasco(op): 1:08pm On May 11, 2016
tish Prime Minister David Cameron has explained his
comment about Nigeria as being a ‘fantastically
corrupt’ country

The news about Cameron defining Nigeria as a corrupt
nation went viral immediately afterwards.
British PM was taking questions in parliament on
Wednesday, May 11, the day after he was caught on
camera telling Queen Elizabeth that leaders of some
“fantastically corrupt” are visiting United Kingdom.
Angus Robertson, SNP Westminster leader, asks a
question on the anti-corruption summit. Mr. Cameron
first of all checked his microphone before speaking.
Addressing the question, he says the point of the
summit being held in London is to show that action to
tackle corruption is needed by developed as well as
developing countries.
Cameron says the government is taking steps to ensure
“plundered money from African countries can’t be
hidden in London.”
He is hosting an international anti-corruption summit on
May 12.

we also heard that President Buhari speaking at the anti-c President Buhari speaking at the anti-corruption
conference has said he does not want an apology from
Cameron, but a return of the assets that were taken out
of his country and sent to the UK.

“Unfortunately, repatriating stolen assets is tedious, time- consuming, costly. It entails more than just signing of bilateral agreements.
“The anti-corruption agencies have been revitalized to tackle the monster… A radical departure from the past. Our administration has zero tolerance for corruption…We have strong reserve to tackle it, even if many feathers would be ruffled.” #PMB


I like this Man..........

“I’m not going to demand an apology from anyone, what I’ll demand is a return of assets.”
“By the end of our summit tomorrow, we should be able to agree on rules-based architecture to combat corruption. Corruption does not differentiate between developed and developing countries. It is a serious threat to good governance, peace and security. I call for establishment of an anti-corruption infrastructure that will trace and return stolen assets to their countries of origin.

SportsMassive! Five Matches You Can’t Afford To Miss by Wadasco(op): 9:53am On May 07, 2016
The leagues across Europe are almost rounding off and
some of this weekend’s matches will decide the fate of
teams vying for titles; with some desperate to avoid
relegation.
These are then five must see matches this weekend


1. Leicester City vs Everton


The English League has already been decided last
Monday at Stamford Bridge when Chelsea’s 2 – 2 draw
with Tottenham crowned Leicester Champions of
England for the first time.
Vardy takes on Everton defenders during a league game
The Foxes will have their celebration party as they tackle
Everton at the King Power Stadium where fans will be
given free pizzas.
The Toffees will be looking to stun the Champions as
under pressure coach, Roberto Martinez will be aiming
to finish strongly in league after losing to Manchester

for incoming coach Pep Guardiola.
Cazorla and Giroud celebrate a goal against City
Arsene Wenger will be looking to redeem his image
before the London fans by getting the deserved result

The Catalan derby in the past has always been a tug of
war between both Barcelona and Espanyol but in recent
years the Bualgrana has always stamped their authority
over their city rivals.
Messi in the thick of action against Espanyol
However Espanyol will want to spoil the party for
Barcelona by inflicting a win on draw which will be
detrimental to the title hopes of the defending
champions.
All Barcelona need is an outright win in the derby even if
they will come out with bruises.


4. Real Madrid vs Valencia


When both teams met in the first half of the season the,
then Gary Neville side forced Real to a 1-1 draw at the
Mestalla which lead to sack of Rafa Benitez.
Real Madrid will need to defeat Valencia to boost their
title hopes
Real Madrid on the other hand are in fine form both in
the league and Champions League and a victory is
expected from the Los Blancos but they will be without
their most informed player Gareth Bale.


5. Rangers vs Shooting Stars


The old time enemies will be at the war front again when
league leaders Enugu Rangers trade tackles with
Shooting Stars of Ibadan.
Rangers are sitting comfortably on top of the log with
27 points from 14 matches and will be looking to
consolidate their leadership with a win over the ‘Oluyole
Warriors’ at Enugu.
Ranfers FC players
The visitors have not been having good results on the
road as they have handed heavy defeats by El-kanemi
and Kano Pillars conceding nine goals in the process.
The Afonja Warriors will be aiming to snatch a draw to
boost their chances of survival in the Premier League as
they are placed 18th on the log with 16 points from 17
matches.
