A former Cameroonian minister, Basil Atangana Kuna was caught by Interpol on Wednesday night in Nigeria and transported via a plane to Yaoundé in handcuffs. The former minister of water and energy minister was arrested in Nigeria and flown home on Thursday escorted by police officers - amid a crackdown on high-level corruption.

Basile Atangana Kouna was removed from his ministerial position during President Paul Biya’s March 2 cabinet reshuffle. He had already been ordered the previous month not to leave the country.

It was not clear what charges Atangana Kouna was facing, but there was speculation on Thursday that he was arrested as part of an anti-corruption drive known as Operation Sparrowhawk.

Three men - a former Ministry of Public Works official, the head of a state company, and the ex-rector of the University of Douala - were arrested as part of the operation earlier this week.

Why are flies attracted to bad smells?

One of the reasons why corruption loves Nigeria.

This shithole called Nigeria is large enough to accommodate any corrupt individual- Anonymous

Where is the handcuff picture I demand to see it immediately!!!!

He came to see Buhari

Really

I concur wit u

Paul biya himself is a big time embezzler, this is purely witch-hunting

You don't know where to travel to is shithole country.

Gotcha!

Nigeria is not the best place to be a political fugitive , they will betray you when the chips are down

Mogidi:

Humour is made in Nigeria!!!

he is most likely jealous of Nigerian looter politicians and in his deluded mind thought they will harbour him... now he understands our polithiefcians are not loyal

As if Mr Biya is even better. All his ministers are as corrupt as him.

Nigeria is the capital home of looters, lot are walking free on the roads.

Arrested on Thursday by Nigerian security officers and already being sent to Cameroon the following day! And we want other African countries to take us seriously. Which court okayed his extradition?
Or why can't we act like a continental giant that we claim, by keeping him for a few weeks before agreeing to release him?

Even UK and US that are best of friends - extradition between both countries takes rigorous process. Has UK agreed to try or release Diezani to us despite all Buharis pleas and visits and agreements. Talk about showing class.

Nigeria a country of hypocrites, wanting to prove what is non--existent

Why arrest a Cameroonian minister wanting to passage through Nigeria to flee from a despotic Paul Biya

Whereas, there are tons of currupt politicians in Nigerian cabinet, IBB roam around freely, Jonathan Obasanjo and all senators... Why fool yourself?

Corruption catching Corruption.

Mr ex minister, just pay the Nigerian officials off and you will be free.

I think diezani case is different. Besides why should Nigeria delay the extradition? The Cameroon man has no issue with Nigeria so why hold him back from his country?

Sometimes everything is not class or show off.
