Corruption: #BringBackDiezani Daily Sit-Out To Commence Monday

A coalition of anti-corruption groups has vowed to commence protest calling for the extradition and prosecution of the former Minister for Petroleum Resources, Mrs Diezani Alison Madueke.

This was contained in a statement issued and signed by the conveners of the coalition.

Popular musician, Mr Charles Oputa signed on behalf of his group, OurMumuDonDo, while Deji Adeyanju signed for Concerned Nigerians.

Mr Adebayo Raphael also appended his signature for OurMumuDonDo group in his capacity as the Publicity Secretary.

The statement, which says that the sit-out will take place on Monday 28 & Tuesday 29 August, 2017, reads:

“Following recent mind-boggling allegations of corruption and wanton looting of public funds and the collective patrimony of Nigerian citizens by the former Minister for Petroleum, Mrs. Diezani Allison-Madueke, we call on the Economic & Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to apply for her extradition from the United Kingdom to face prosecution in Nigeria.

“Furthermore, a Federal High Court has ordered Mrs. Allison-Madueke to permanently forfeit several luxurious properties in several high brow areas across the country to the Federal Government.

“It is therefore unimaginable that the Federal Government is not pushing for Mrs. Allison-Madueke’s extradition to face punishment for her alleged crimes.

“In this light, we will be holding a 2-day sit out in front of the EFCC Headquarters to demand that the Federal Government applies for her extradition and prosecution in Nigeria.

Details of the sit-out are as follows:

Date: Monday 28 & Tuesday 29 August, 2017

Time: 9am-10am daily

Venue: Front of EFCC Office, Wuse 2, Abuja

“We invite all well-meaning Nigerians to join us and participate in this event.”

Mrs Diezani was accused by the EFCC of theft running into billions of Naira alongside some accomplices.
