The UK National Crime Agency on Friday confirmed the arrest of the former minister of Petroleum Resources with four other persons.
The agency confirmed the arrest on its website.
“The National Crime Agency’s recently formed International Corruption Unit has arrested five people across London as part of an investigation into suspected bribery and money laundering offences,” the NCA said on its website.The agency also announced the arrest on its Twitter handle.
The identities of the four other people arrested along with Mrs. Alison-Madueke, could not be immediately ascertained.
The former minister who was appointed Nigeria’s first female petroleum minister in February 2010,has consistently denied any wrongdoings and In June, after leaving office, she rejected all allegations of embezzlement saying she never stole from Nigeria.
Meanwhile, Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC,this evening raided and sealed off the Asokoro property residence of the former Minister in Abuja, few hours after she was arrested in London.
