The United Kingdom’s National Crime Agency has secured the seizure of the
sum of £5,000 and $2,000 from Mrs. Beatrice Agama, the mother of the former
Petroleum Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
According to reports, the former Nigerian Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani
Alison-Madueke appeared in court with her mother,
Beatrice Agama, and one Melanie Spencer yesterday.
Mrs. Alison-Madueke was arrested last week by the UK National Crime
Agency over allegations that she engaged in bribery and money
laundering.
Mrs. Madueke’s case came to the attention of law enforcement agents in
the UK when she used her mother to purchase a posh apartment in
Westminster.
Meanwhile, twitter tweeps are comparing Diezanis wealth with that of Africa’s richest man, Dangote. With allegations of 13 billion pounds stolen, many now believe Dangote isn’t the richest Nigerian or African in the world.
