Former presidential media aide, Laolu Akande, says the UK court’s acquittal of former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, is not enough, urging her to return to Nigeria and clear her name.
Akande made the call on Friday while speaking in an interview on Channels Television’s ‘The Morning Brief’.
He insisted that Alison-Madueke still has unresolved legal matters with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC.
“It’s an exciting news. And she should come home and get these matters sorted. She should go through the EFCC cases against her, for which quite a significant portion of her properties have been forfeited.
“I think the time is now ripe for her to come and defend herself in her own country, and let’s see where the pendulum goes,” Akande said.
