NNPC chiefs who served under Diezani are now singing to the EFCC

Operatives of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) are cracking down on a former managing director of one of the subsidiaries of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and three former executive directors of the oil corporation who served under ex-Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke, reports The Punch.

The EFCC’s Subsidy Unit (SU) and the UK’s National Crime Agency (NCA) are taking turns to interrogate these former oil chiefs, according to the newspaper.

The ex-NNPC MD and the three former EDs had already been directed to be reporting to investigators.The four were said to be “very close” to Alison-Madueke while in office.

On Sunday, Ekekeee had reported that UK investigators have flown into Nigeria to continue the probe of Nigeria’s immediate past petroleum resources manager for money laundering and corrupt practices. She was arrested last Friday in London and would likely be charged to court this week.  -
