Missing Oil Money: Buhari Turns Down Ex Petroleum Minister’s Refund Offer
Diezani Alison-Madueke, a former minister of petroleum resources, has allegedly offered a generous refund to the federal government in order to get immunity from prosecution and investigations of any kind.
According to the information by Sahara Reporters, the offered sum equals at least $250 million dollars. Its correspondent also learnt that President Buhari is not in position to accept any compensations.
An insider source at the presidential villa revealed that the ex-minister counts on Governor Nasir El-Rufai to assist her in negotiations with the president. However, the positive outcome is unlikely:
“Mr President considers the $250 million as ridiculous considering the amount of money Mrs Diezani Alison-Madueke is suspected to have diverted into her pocket and those of others,” an unnamed APC member told the journalist.
Alison-Madueke’s move can be explained by the upcoming meeting between US Attorney General Loretta Lynch and President Buhari during his visit to the USA.
