More facts have emerged on how a Nigeria ex-president initiated the arrest of the country former Minister of Petroleum resources Diezani Alison-Madueke by the British National Crime Agency.

A reliable source told Silverbird Television that a particular oil baron who was allegedly fronting for the ex-minister sought advice from the ex-president on what he could do to escape the hammer of President Muhammadu Buhari’s anti-corruption policy.

In his response, the ex-president frankly told the oil baron to surrender all that he had looted. However, in his explanation, the oil baron said that many prominent Nigerians might be implicated if he disclosed the source of the funds.

Following intense pressure and the fear that he might be disgraced, having told the ex-president, the oil baron voluntarily surrendered himself to NCA.

The source says, “You know the ex-president can’t keep secret. He will expose all that have been discussed with him. He was actually waiting for the oil baron to surrender himself and inform the NCA how many public officers were involved in the alleged shady deals.”

According to the source, it was the ex-president who instigated the arrest of James Ibori. He instigated the process to extradite Buruji Kasamu, “so it was wise for the oil baron that he surrendered himself and mentioned the names of those he was fronting for” the source stated.

As a matter of fact, the oil baron also mentioned four other ministers in the cabinet of the immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan that were culpable in the money laundering saga.

The said oil baron, according to sources, was allegedly fronting for the ex-Minister and may be holding some looted funds in trust for her.

It was learnt that following surveillance and monitoring by security agencies, the oil baron confided in a former Head of State who encouraged him to open up to the NCA on all such slush accounts.
Mrs. Alison-Madueke and her alleged accomplices are expected to be arraigned in a London court tomorrow.
The suspects were questioned for several hours by security agents in London.

Name Of The Ex Presid Pls

General Obasanjo.

I have seen this man get a lot of bad press, but never I have said anything bad about him.

He means well. Even if he becomes vindictive, when not courted and made to feel relevant, in the project called Nigeria.

General Obasanjo, is partly to blame for the rot in Jonathan ' s Government. If he had not forced the man down our throat, to spite Atiku.

We would not have had a Alison Maduekwe, as a Minister, who stole from Nigeria into the Guinness book of World Record.

Obasanjo is just as big a thief as Jonathan is, if not bigger. What happened to all the funds that were allocated to electricity and roads during his tenure?

Obj is only better at covering his tracks than Jonathan plus sentiment is on his side.

Please do 'the needful' by reporting OBJ corruption to UK authority so that he can be jailed as well.

I really doubt all these corruption allegations against OBJ because of the confidence he displays internationally. It will be a good development for him to be jailed if he has stolen our money.
