Magu: Diezani Stole $2.5bn Supported By Generation Of Looters
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission has appealed to the United Kingdom to extradite ex-Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, to Nigeria to account for the missing public money linked to her.

Speaking to reporters in Kaduna on Monday, the acting chairman of the anti-corruption body, Ibrahim Magu, claimed Alison-Madueke stole “not less than $2.5bn.”

He said Nigeria needed the money to boost its economy.

Magu said it was “unfortunate she has a generation of looters supporting her.”

The EFCC chief added, “I was in London this year, we did an investigation together with the UK team, and anywhere I go I always call for the extradition of corrupt Nigerians to return (stolen) money.

“This woman (Alison-Madueke) has stolen so much, not less than $2.5bn, but unfortunately she has a generation of looters who are supporting her. This is not good.

“We are in touch with the international community, she is under protective custody, otherwise, we would have arrested her and bring her to Nigeria.”

Magu said corruption was surmountable, noting that in 2019, a total of 1,218 convictions were secured by the commission.

He said, “We will not allow corruption to work here in Nigeria because it is destructive and disastrous. We blocked several accounts.”

US ASSURES AFGHANS THEY ARE NOT GOING TO BE ABANDONED AFTER AGREEING FIRST STEP OF PEACE DEAL WITH TALIBAN
The United States of America has promised to stand by Afghans if the Taliban militants decide to break terms of a new deal being discussed between the US, Afghanistan government and the Taliban.
On Friday, the U.S. government and the Afghan Taliban agreed to the first step of a peace deal, a major milestone after months of deliberating over ending a war that has gone on for more than 18 years.
According to CNN, an Afghan source close to the negotiations has said that US officials in Munich, Germany, reassured Afghan President Ashraf Ghani that the United States won’t won’t abandon them if the taliban breaks it’s own side of the deal, saying the US had enough firepower to deal with the Taliban if they reneged on the agreement while the US and NATO troops reduce their presence in the region.

The source said that Americans told the Afghan delegation in Munich: “We guarantee you if they [Taliban] break [terms of deal] US will have enough lethal power to destroy them, we are with the Afghan now and we will be with Afghanistan forever.”

NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg has said the US and NATO were prepared to reduce their military presence in Afghanistan if the Taliban demonstrated a willingness to stop violence and negotiate with the West.

“We are not leaving Afghanistan … NATO has said, the US has said, we are prepared to adjust our presence if the Taliban demonstrates real will and capability to reduce violence,” Stoltenberg said during his address at the Munich Security Conference.
“The aim of our presence in Afghanistan is to send the message to the Taliban that they will never win on the battlefield, but they have to sit down and make real compromises around the negotiating table,” NATO’s Secretary General added.
Stoltenberg also said that at “at some stage the Afghans have to be in charge, fully, of their future,” adding that it must be an “Afghan-owned” peace process.

The War in Afghanistan, the US’ longest war in history, started after the United States military invasion of Afghanistan on 7 October 2001.

The United States of America and its allies successfully drove the Taliban from power in order to deny al-Qaeda a safe base of operations in Afghanistan. After completing initial objectives, a coalition of over 40 countries (including all NATO members) formed a security mission in the country.
