his daughter is currently forty years old, which clarifies historical

19
00:01:15,239 –> 00:01:19,560

46
00:03:04,800 –> 00:03:08,479
tense negotiations over the last few days successfully brought the

00:03:12,280 –> 00:03:15,120

to insider family sources, the criminal ring initially demanded a

staggering one hundred and fifty million niras ransom for their release. However,

86
00:05:52,519 –> 00:05:57,079
following frantic negotiations, the kidnappers slashed the demands to five

87
00:05:57,160 –> 00:06:01,560
million nyrahs. Despairing relatives revealed that the family is still

00:07:15,560 –> 00:07:19,399
a troubling moment for the global fight against corruption, illicit

bringing a dramatic end to a saga that began more

116
00:07:52,480 –> 00:07:55,759
than a decade ago, a development that prompted AINAGE to

00:07:55,839 –> 00:07:59,920
take immediate action today June twenty three, twenty twenty six,

118
00:08:00,439 –> 00:08:03,959
by launching a critical two day capacity building workshop in

the necessary tools to track, combat, and dismantle these very

00:08:32,440 –> 00:08:37,720
same illicit financial flows across Nigeria. Allison Madueke served as

126
00:08:37,840 –> 00:08:41,879
Nigeria’s powerful oil minister from twenty ten to twenty fifteen

127
00:08:41,919 –> 00:08:45,039
and was the first female president of the Organization of

128
00:08:45,120 –> 00:08:50,080
the Petroleum Exporting Countries OPEK. Her tenure was immediately hit

129
00:08:50,159 –> 00:08:54,799
by controversy when former Central Bank of Nigeria CBN Governor

130
00:08:55,120 –> 00:08:58,639
Sanusi Lamido Senousi alleged the twenty billion dollars in oil

131
00:08:58,720 –> 00:09:02,919
revenue had gone missing under her watch. In May twenty fifteen,

132
00:09:03,480 –> 00:09:06,559
just as the administration of President good Luck Jonathan was

133
00:09:06,600 –> 00:09:11,320
handing over power to Mohammadu Buhari, Allison Madueke left Nigeria

134
00:09:11,360 –> 00:09:16,519
for London. By October twenty fifteen, the UK’s NCA arrested

135
00:09:16,519 –> 00:09:19,879
her on suspicion of bribery and money laundering, seizing her

136
00:09:19,919 –> 00:09:25,039
passport and sparking a thirteen year international investigation. For years,

137
00:09:25,320 –> 00:09:30,360
Allison Maduek’s legal team fiercely resisted attempts by Nigeria’s Economic

138
00:09:30,399 –> 00:09:34,440
and Financial Crimes Commission E FCC to extradite her back

139
00:09:34,480 –> 00:09:38,799
to Abuja to face separate corruption charges. Her prolonged stay

140
00:09:38,840 –> 00:09:42,600
in the UK was repeatedly defended on critical medical grounds.

141
00:09:43,440 –> 00:09:47,559
Her lawyers disclosed that she was diagnosed with triple negative cancer,

142
00:09:47,919 –> 00:09:50,960
describing it as the most aggressive form of breast cancer

143
00:09:51,679 –> 00:09:55,279
over the decade. Her defense stated that she underwent multiple

144
00:09:55,320 –> 00:10:00,399
major surgeries and extensive chemotherapy treatments in London hospitals, leaving

145
00:10:00,440 –> 00:10:03,600
her at one point in a coma due to medical complications.

146
00:10:04,399 –> 00:10:08,240
These health battles, combined with the extreme complexity of cross

147
00:10:08,240 –> 00:10:12,399
border financial tracking, left her on continuous UK bail for

eight years before she was formerly charged in twenty twenty three,
