Senator Stella Oduah has urged the President Muhammadu Buhari
administration to follow due process in investigating and prosecuting
corruption allegations against former Minister of Petroleum, Deziani
Alison-Madueke.
She stated this while speaking to reporters in Abuja on Tuesday.
Oduah, who herself is a former Minister of Aviation, said that
Alison-Madueke should be tried in the court and be convicted before the
seizure of her property.
“We have laws in this country. We have processes and policies on how
things ought to be done. If we are law-abiding, then we must do things
according to the law.
“Anything outside that is going to be illegal, in my own view,” she said.
A Federal High Court in Lagos had on August 28, ordered the final
forfeiture of N7.6billion being alleged loot recovered from
Alison-Madueke.
September 22 has been fixed, to hear the application for the final
forfeiture of four properties valued at N2.6billion, linked to
Allison-Madueke and her associates.
